Today was supposed to be 0.6.4 release day, but simply said the game is not yet ready for that. Instead here is a public beta test of the 0.6.4 version, which mainly focused on performance improvements by switching to using a different physics engine and redoing the gameplay code with an ECS architecture. Due to that architecture refactoring this has been an absolutely huge amount of work that is not even complete yet. Microbe stage should be about playable now but if you reach the early multicellular that should crash as soon as you exit the editor.
Iām not putting this version in the launcher yet due to the instability. This version is available as the beta version on Steam and itch and hereās direct download links (just unzip with 7-zip and run the Thrive executable): Linux

So if you have some spare time, please give the new Thrive version a go. If you see any bugs or things that are worse than they were before, please comment below. But if at all possible first check here to see if the thing is already known:
That board also has the overall status showing what is still broken or not reimplemented for the game yet.
The plan for next week is for me to fix early multicellular stage and any other high priority problems. Weāll also try to tweak the gameplay to be as close to 0.6.3 as possible with the new physics. As long as that gets done in time 0.6.4 will release next week.
So please give this new Thrive version a spin and report your experiences. You can also post your benchmark results here, which should be 20-100% better than in 0.6.3. And finally again note that the game is expected to crash when you reach early multicellular stage. For other crashes please get the unhandled exception lines that crashed the game from the log file (there is a button in the game settings menu to open the logs folder).
Pilus not dealing damage was already on the board. I added toxins as well.
It should. I think it just takes a couple more seconds than before. If it doesnāt even after 10 seconds, then please provide more details what happened.
Logs please. Itās very hard to know what went wrong otherwise. āNormal dyingā works just fine and respawns the player.
hereās the part of the logs containing the last editor session to when it happened

And this is using a cheat. Did you use this before or after the problem occurred?
I guess it is a bit late to ask now but a save from when the issue occurred would have been also pretty nice to look at as that would have contained all the player entity component data which might explain what went wrong with the respawn timer.
I checked the code and the player entity should be forced to despawn in 6 seconds after the player died message was printed. I donāt have a guess as to why that didnāt happen.
i used that after the problem occured trying to see if it would get me out of the softlock

------------ End of Unhandled Exception Log ------------
All of the toxin collision and processing should already work even if (I assume here, this is unknown before the problem is actually fixed) the last step of the damage applying is not triggering correctly. So the performance impact should be basically pretty minuscule compared to if the toxin damage worked fully.
Inertia immediately seems to affect movement much more than before, is this intended?
This is probably just the already listed rock scaling issue: I can move over some Iron chunks now, I guess that part of the rock is on a lower plane so this should be fine? The cellās shadow is drawn a bit weirdly however:
The latter four images show me being engulfed by a cell far smaller than me, both visually and by hex size.
*Engulfed cells that canāt be digested are not being expelled:
Thanks for the testing. Most of these were already found but at least the indigestible membrane bug is new that no one else has noticed. You just made it in time as tomorrow thereās likely going to be a release candidate build to get another round of testing before considering the new version good enough for a general release.
The movement needs still more tweaking if it is to be exactly the same as before. Since the beta Iāve slightly buffed base movement for 2+ hex sized cells.
The physics shape orientation is different compared to the graphics, so thatās the root cause.
This is exactly why when making models for a game it is extremely important to have no root scale, rotation or offset in a model.
Seems like a bug. Did you have more than 1 ATP? Thatās the thresshold that healing should apply. For a single hex of cytoplasm that is a bit hard to achieve as that requires basically full ATP which probably doesnāt happen due to rounding.
Yes, I fixed it today:
There was a massive bug in the beta that engulf sizes were not recalculated. It was only calculated once for each cell on spawn (so player was the most affected cell).
That was also quickly fixed, and will be in the next build (RC is very likely tomorrow).
This seems new. Iāll put it on the issue board.
Yeah, the flagellum calculation factor was way too low. Iāve removed a divide by 100 from it so it now again affects the shown speed values.
I mean the FPS literally more than double.
We can advertise the new version as up to 100% faster.
