Patch 0.21.321

Hey Islanders,

A new patch is now available on the Evrima Public Branch. Thank you to everyone that participated in our latest hordetest. To spare you all a novel-length read, we’ve trimmed the changelog down to the highlights. A list of known-issues will be updated and posted in a few days.

You may need to restart your Steam client if the update is not immediately available to download.

Changelog for Patch 0.21.321:

Added Tyrannosaurus

RMB - Muzzle Swing

A light attack capable of knocking down smaller targets

Hold RMB - Heavy Muzzle Swing

A heavy attack capable of knocking down or killing smaller targets and staggering similar sized animals

Hold LMB - Crush

A powerful attack that sends the tyrannosaurus lunging forward with a powerful bite and fracture damage. This can pin and execute smaller or wounded targets, or stagger similar sized animals

Spacebar (After achieving subadult) - Ambush

Ambush will give you a temporary increase to your sprint speed before going on a moderate cooldown. Useful to help catch prey that will soon outpace you

Hold F and press 1 or RMB (After achieving adult) - "Paleo" Vocals

Tyrannosaurus possesses some unique audio for generic and broadcast calls as an adult. There is no special use for this yet. It's just for fun

LMB/RMB - Directional Attacks

Tyrannosaurus possesses primary and secondary directional attacks. Primary attacks are standard bites. Secondary attacks are less lethal but medium hitting muzzle swings

RMB (After crushing a target) - Throw

Throw a target in the direction you're looking. This will always kill them

Added Allosaurus

Hold LMB (While Running) - Claw Swipe

A medium attack that deals heavy bleed. This can also move the allosaurus slightly in the direction its looking to close distance for the attack

Hold RMB and Release - Pounce

Allosaurus latches on to a target, dealing increasing damage and bleed over time

Updated Pteranodon

Automatic (Run off a ledge) - Ledge Flight

Enter flight automatically by running off the edge of a surface

Double Press Ctrl (During Flight) - Barrel Roll

Spin down into a dive or just show off

Z (During Flight) - Air Brake

Depending on how fast a player is going, quickly braking and using turn will drastically increase your turn rate at the cost of some momentum

RMB (While over mud or a water surface) - Spearfishing

Only usable during the day, this will cause the pteranodon to enter a stance to lure fish or clams nearby. When a target is highlighted, press LMB to catch them. If you catch a clam, press LMB when on a hard surface like rock to throw a clam down to open it

Carnotaurus Headbutt is now activated by holding RMB and pressing LMB while held. This can be activated while standing or running and depending on charge time, can knock down or stagger targets depending on their comparative size

Added Elder life stage

At 100% growth, players are eligible to Entomb. This kills your current animal and respawns you again as a fresh spawn of the same species. Mutations from the previous life are kept and their benefits are enhanced, as well as letting you choose more mutations to benefit your animal

Adjusted new menu and in-game HUD (WIP)

Added Player Report function after death

Added clams
