Planet Calypso Content Release 2016.4

Planet Calypso Content Release 2016.4
2016-12-06


Settlement Update
Added Fort Sisyphus, located NW of Hadesheim Crater

Ideal for new colonists.

Added a hunting mission chain that rewards CDF Scout armor parts.

This smaller Fort is also a Dynamic Event area, with a different and shorter format.

Arriving to the area during the event will give quick Dynamic Event and shared creature info.

A CDF Scout at Orthos West Mound can take you to an outpost close to the Fort.

The Calypso Defense Force now offers the opportunity for colonists to earn access to the CDF Upgrade service. The first available upgrade is for the Teleportation Chip II. Talk to Liaison Guiying in Fort Ithaca for more information.

Contaminated and PvP zone adjustments (Note: these are minor, perhaps temporary, adjustments pending more substantial improvements planned for future Version Updates):

Akmuul Island Contaminated Zone.

Radar is on.

No Vehicles.

No Pets.


Camp Echidna Contaminated Zone.

Radar is on.

No Vehicles.

No Pets.


Fort Argus PvP Zone.

No Vehicle Spawning.

Oil Rig PvP Zone.

Radar is on.

No Pets.


Land Grab Forts adjustments (Note: these are minor, perhaps temporary, adjustments pending more substantial improvements planned for future Version Updates):
Half of the service terminals in the main hub of the forts have been removed and the remaining have been placed on the upper level away from the LG claim to reduce the safe zone area that can be too advantageous for defenders covering the claim.

It is now not possible to spawn vehicles inside the LG area when event is active.


Fixed Issues
Fixed an issue in the “Research Recovery (Daily)” mission where the mission didn’t update properly when exiting the cave.

Fixed an issue where one could get stuck when trying to enter the cave during the “Argonautical Assassination” mission.

Fixed an issue where faulty text was appearing in the Belkar, Iron, Lysterium and Zinc Mining missions.

Fixed an issue where the objectives didn’t update in the mission “Shooting Star”.

Fixed an issue where one could receive double progress from the Research Equipment Boxes during the “Research Recovery (Daily)” mission.

Fixed an exploit where one could use the “Row Your Boat” missions as an emergency teleport.

Fixed several Estate issues.


Known Issues
Shadow Armor is shinier than intended.

It is possible to spawn vehicles in the Oil Rig area, it should be similar to the Fort Argus PvP Zone.

There’s an unintended dip in the ground in Fort Fury.

Interacting with Liaison Atwell during the “Liaison Guiying’s Task” mission will trigger that mission’s in-progress dialogue.

Fort Argus PvP area sometimes disables radar.
