Why does the Github Milestone webpage for release 0.8.2.0 not show any open issues or pull requests, even though there are pull requests for the next release?

[aah31415 (The maker of SitF, Radiostrocity, The Lifenote and TGBing; The Second Ascended...; And just maybe a security warning come alive...?)]

You should click on the “x% complete, y open, z closed” text below the progress bar there instead.

[AnthropocenianAge (AnthropocenianAge Arthropleura wants to give you a hug!)]

Those clickable text options do not show anything there on the release 0.8.2.0 webpage. But it is on the text with “no milestone”. Did something change with GitHub?

Maybe try using this?

Huh, when I clicked it in browser it was working, but it’s not working when redirected from here

Shows up fine for me:

Edit: seems like it only shows up when I’m logged in. Maybe it is some github bug that issues that should be visible are not publicly visible?

[aah31415 (The maker of SitF, Radiostrocity, The Lifenote and TGBing; The Second Ascended...; And just maybe a security warning come alive...?)]

I recall this issue only began somewhat recently. Definitely after the 0.8.2 milestone was created.

I think it started about a week ago. Most unfortunate. It was a nice way to keep tabs on what progress is being made and what is being prioritized. I hope this issue gets fixed soon, though I understand this is probably outside of the development teams hands.

[aah31415 (The maker of SitF, Radiostrocity, The Lifenote and TGBing; The Second Ascended...; And just maybe a security warning come alive...?)]

I mean, one can still access the milestone by clicking on the open/closed count from a browser.

I wonder if anyone has tried being logged into a Github account to see if that helps? (and not having been added to the Thrive repo permissions)

Are there plans to add emojis based off the new mascot?

[aah31415 (The maker of SitF, Radiostrocity, The Lifenote and TGBing; The Second Ascended...; And just maybe a security warning come alive...?)]

Maybe? I could see the disturbance emojis being phased out in favour of hexaquill emojis in the coming months.

[AnthropocenianAge (AnthropocenianAge Arthropleura wants to give you a hug!)]

So like a Hexquill playing the guitar, instead of a Distrubance playing the saxophone?

[aah31415 (The maker of SitF, Radiostrocity, The Lifenote and TGBing; The Second Ascended...; And just maybe a security warning come alive...?)]

I suppose so. I wonder if things like the disturbance saxophone music video from Oliveriver’s channel will also have the disturbance part of them removed…

What are the planned increase of values for penalties due to improper tolerances in biomes for the next update?

[hhyyrylainen]

If I remember right, the latest update didn’t yet have the balance changes I made. So in 0.8.2 the negative effects can be double than what they can be currently (though only in the categories that had less extreme effects, for example I don’t think I increased the effect of health reduction as you can already get less than 50% effective health).

[aah31415 (The maker of SitF, Radiostrocity, The Lifenote and TGBing; The Second Ascended...; And just maybe a security warning come alive...?)]

We’ll see how players react to such an increase in the impact of tolerances, and if nerfs to the strength of the penealties are needed…

What achievements are you planning to add to the game and how do you decide which achievements will be added?

[aah31415 (The maker of SitF, Radiostrocity, The Lifenote and TGBing; The Second Ascended...; And just maybe a security warning come alive...?)]

There was this thread made for getting the achievement of the microbe stage done in the theory aspect:

Best Ideas for Microbe Stage Achievements

We are quickly approaching the time in which we will begin to add in Achievements (the 0.9.x releases) and while we have plenty of proposed Achievements, they have not been organized into any form that would be useful yet for the developers to make use of. We need to start the process of choosing which achievements will be best to put into the Microbe stage and I think the best way to start off this process is for the community members to post what they think the best options for achievements ar…

How long is the Banana Biome going to be included in the game as an Easter egg biome?

[aah31415 (The maker of SitF, Radiostrocity, The Lifenote and TGBing; The Second Ascended...; And just maybe a security warning come alive...?)]

Indefinitely I think. Unless there is to be a major microbe patch system makeover, I don’t see why it would get removed.
