The Thorium Reactor will also gain lighting when it explodes and will have its green particles replaced with purple ones. Lighting will be more detailed in V7, such as with unit death explosions and projectiles all being able to emit light. A larger 2x2 version of it is also developed, with optional coolant.įire will be rendered differently in V7, from a recurring particle effect to a single animated sprite, immensely cutting down lag. The Repair Point's laser animation has been improved to slightly move in a circle. Improvements and Balancing Mending Improvements Payload sources support any size of payload, which will include Tier 5 units.

They function much like standard mass drivers, but transport singular payloads from one driver to the other.Ī payload source and void is currently under development, where they can spawn and terminate any payload.

Payload Drivers have working models in development. Most blocks from Serpulo will not work on Erekir. It is named after Navanax inermis, a predatory sea slug that eats other molluscs and small fish.Īnuken has confirmed that there will be a separate tech tree for Erekir, including units and new power transportation blocks. The EMP ball also overdrives any block targeted, much like the Overdrive Projector. Like an EMP, it will disable power going into affected targets. It has four automatic Meltdown-like weapons which fire independently from player control, as well as a unique EMP launcher that is super effective against powered blocks such as the Lancer. The Navanax is a Tier 5 naval support unit. It is named after a genus of nudibranchs that feed on sponges.Īegires, with new lighting. Damaged friendly units will also be zapped with lightning, but will be healed instead. The lighting field inflicts the electrified status effect, reducing speed and fire rate greatly. It periodically emits a barrage of lightning that hits all enemy blocks and units within a large radius and carries four Segment weapons that diffuse bullets. The Aegires is a Tier 4 naval support unit. Cyerce is named after the Cyerce genus of sea slug, which are sacoglossan and feed on algae.Ĭyerce from development previews. The Cyerce is a Tier 3 naval support unit that functions similarly to Bryde, except that the projectiles are homing, deal damage in a large area and heal buildings. It is named after the Oxynoe genus of sea snail. It also carries two Segment-like turrets that diffuse enemy bullets. The Oxynoe is a Tier 2 naval support unit that carries two Scorch-like weapons which can heal buildings.


Note: The Retusa shown to the side is from development previews, where it originally had two repair points. It is named after a genus of headshield slugs, which are small gastropod molluscs. The Retusa is a Tier 1 naval support unit that drops sea mines and carries one repair point. All of these units appear to be named after gastropods in the ocean. The current names are found in the Bleeding Edge build's source code. Much like how the ground and air units have a branch for support and logistics, a naval support branch is under development, focused on healing structures and units. Retusa from development previews repairing an Omura. These are known as Ducts in Bleeding Edge and have Router and Bridge Conveyor variants.įootage of asteroids on the planet map and in levels can be found, but the current stance is that such asteroid levels will not be implemented. They have high speed and the same throughput as a Titanium Conveyor. Zero-Gravity Conveyors and Asteroids (Cancelled)Ĭonveyors for zero-gravity environments are under development, where they can be used in certain areas (i.e potential planets without gravity). The exact specifics are unknown, but Anuken plans to add a short intro cutscene when first booting into the Campaign. V7 plans to expand this by adding more, such as meteorites and volcanic eruptions. In the V6 campaign, there are already a few weather effects that periodically come and go. Erekir is tidally locked, having one side being very hot and one side being very cold. The new planet plans to add more tile, wall and obstacle blocks for mapping. Erekir exists separately from Serpulo and most blocks researched on Serpulo are incompatible with Erekir (and vice versa). The main big feature of V7 will be a new planet named Erekir.
#Mindustry download update
The next major update of Mindustry, dubbed Version 7 or V7, is planned to come out sometime in 2022. Most of this information comes from the Trello as well as certain messages and previews in the Mindustry Discord.
