Icarus Week 227 Update | Repair Bench QoL

Welcome to Week 227.

This week brings several Quality of Life improvements to the Repair Bench, to make it easier to use, and to understand why it might not be meeting requirements for repairing certain items. Some of the UI has been tidied up and functionality governing the bench has also been refined to make it more usable and understandable.

Notable Improvements:

Fixed meteor showers happening less often than expected because of a random chance
Adjusted text scaling to be more readable
Optimized some VRAM usage by removing some old 4K textures and incorrect compression on several textures.
Fixed Lithium and Ruby Ores not being tagged as resources which was preventing them being used on signs.
Fixed issue where inspecting a network cable directly could incorrectly display the "not connected to network" message.

This Week: Repair Bench QoL

After doing some internal testing, we've made some long-overdue quality of life improvements to the Repair Bench's bulk repair functionality. This was formerly under the "Repair All" button which has now been renamed to "Repair Equipment". This distinction coincides with a clear separation between Armor, Workshop and Everything Else, or, "Equipment"

This new and improved bulk repair behaviour will now include any items or equipment held within the Repair Bench's inventory, as opposed to previously, when it only repaired items within the player's inventory or equipment slots.

Any repairs that fail due to missing resources will now have those resources tallied up and displayed within the UI. This should make it much easier to see which materials you're missing at a glance, without needing to hover over each item individually. Missing resources also include things like a lack of Electricity for repairing items which have that requirement.

We've also clarified some of the text displayed in the UI to be more clear about state and requirements and minor things like instead of hiding buttons when requirements aren't met, we disable the button and inform you why its disabled when hovering over it.

Finally, up until now, only items with a durability less than 90% were repaired. This wasn't communicated well, so we've exposed this threshold as a slider which you can use to customize the amount of damage an item must take before it is included in the bulk repair action.

Next Week: Workshop Crystallized Ruby

Next week we are adding Ruby to the Workshop, alongside the new Lithium Ore, allowing you to bring your more advanced items to other maps outside of Elysium.

Your support makes these updates possible.
