Rocketwerkz has implemented a number of tweaks and bug fixes to the Thumper in the Week 63 Update for ICARUS, now available on Steam.
The Thumper is a new towering machine that ICARUS players can use to regenerate harvestable ore deposits. However, there are certain things that were not working correctly in the previous patch. As a result, the company implemented bug fixes to resolve them in the Week 63 Update.
Using the Thumper inside caves will now spawn land sharks and cave worms as intended. After all, slamming a heavy machine like the Thumper repeatedly should cause a significant disturbance in the surrounding area, right?
Additionally, the Thumper can no longer be turned on while in water. This was made to rectify a small exploit that some players have discovered.
This patch brought quality-of-life improvements as well. Mission Reward Dropships will now try their best to land as close to players as possible. Furthermore, a new option has been added that lets players disable camera shakes.
