- The Sky and Space Update
THIS UPDATE IS MAJOR. from depth 525 up to 695 there are clouds that appear depending on the weather, if it's a storm the clouds will appear and there will be flashes within the clouds and lightning bolts that will appear under the clouds a rain drops (rain won't drop in deserts) and when you fly above the clouds there won't be rain of lighting and the background land will disappear past the depth 695. When you go into the clouds you see yourself barely depending on the thickness of the clouds like you're behind the clouds and it's misty over your character if it's an Overcast/Heavy Rain/Storm . it follows what the background clouds do on the weather. sky islands and sky water puddles can generate and Martian Probs, Harpys and Wyverns will spawn within the depths (525 - 695). The sky should have an expansion too. also when you or other NPC's are in space, you can die from suffocation in space similar to drowning in water without air unless your in a room full of oxygen, flying in the UFO mount or have the gear for space.
- The Martian Bonus Update
The players inventory has a section part for oxygen gear which goes over your armor and there's a setting if you want to have the O2 gear visible or not and the tanks don't run out of air granting players the immunity to suffocating of space After the Player triumphs over a Martian Madness event there will three new NPC's known as the alien (looks like a grey grunt), an alien pet (behavior is similar to the town animals), the Droid which move into a house and get their own space pylon that connects the pylon network and that is brought from the Alien. The Droid is built from debris dropped by martin walkers, tesla turrets and martian drones and iron/lead bars.
- Environment and happiness
All of their environment preferences are in the space layer with an unoccupied house that meet their requirements (a table and chair, a light source, walls, a door/platforms) but their happiness is only biome's not on other NPC's and they don't want live near any evil biomes (which can spawn on sky islands after the wall of flesh's defeat) or the dungeon. build there house needs to air sealed for players to go there which plants need to be in the ship for oxygen
- Defending Themselves
The Alien is armed with a Martian shock sword to defend himself and the Droid has a laser gun and shock grenades to defend himself
- sells
the Alien
Sells martian conduit plating and different types of armaments to put on the space ship it lives in. The different armaments it sells are auto red laser cannons (with colour choices) which shoot laser at anything expect players, NPC's and martian probs and auto missile launchers which do the same as lasers but chase after enemies. A chart course cock pit panel which come along with a tracking link so you can get the ship to rendezvous above you for an ariel bombardment and the player can command it from the ground so the whole ship can travel at light speed along with the NPC's and the player(if the player is on board the ship) at the co-ordinates marked for its destination but it still has to stay in the space layer. Orbital cannons for orbital strikes which come along with targeting binoculars so player can command the ship where to rain multiple red laser fire from the sky at anytime except underground, dealing a serious amount of damage to enemies, similar to STAR WARS Battlefront II. Hanger hooks for outside the ship can deploy star fighters to fight for you but they won't attack Martian Probs and they stay close to the big ship and can dock back into the hooks if there aren't any enemies near by. All of the fighters and cannons fire power won't destroy tiles. The alien also sells a cloaking devices triggered on and off by the player which prevents probs from detecting players that are with range of the radius of cloaking device. The alien sells all the space gear such as O2 tanks and everything that a player needs to survive in space. The alien sells the license of an alien pet that is similar to the town pet license.
the Droid
sells different laser guns such rapid laser guns, hand laser guns, laser guns with explosions on impact like rocket launchers, martian laser rifles (not be confused with laser rifles from the W.O.F), laser shotguns and lingering shock grenades which shocks your foes around you.
- Respawning:
The Alien and the space pet will respawn if killed though they don't drop anything but the droid has to be rebuilt and when it's destroyed and it drops around half the lead/iron and debris it was created from.
