TUSG.io Update 0.1.7

Here's what's new in the latest patch.

Free Starter Skills

Every player now starts with three skills unlocked at level 1 — no grinding required:

• Run — bound to <kbd>Q</kbd>
• Single Shot — bound to <kbd>E</kbd>
• Mass Eject — bound to <kbd>A</kbd>

Mass Eject Rework

Mass Eject is more reliable and rewarding now. It needs at least 100 mass to fire and always launches a meaningful shot (10%+ of your mass). A charge that's too short or a cell that's too small no longer wastes your cooldown — you get a quick hint instead.

Mobile UI

Optimized dialogs and UI in general for mobile.

Bug Fixes

• Opening the inventory right after Play Again no longer freezes your cell.

Jump back in and try it out.

This update for TUSG.io focuses on smoother maintenance and clearer in-game communication. Here's what changed in this version:

• Scheduled maintenance countdown. When a server shutdown is planned, every player now sees a live one-hour countdown in-game, so no one is caught off guard.
• Maintenance page. While the server is down, visitors get a clean maintenance screen instead of a broken page or connection error.
• Rich-text news and dev blog. News and dev blog posts now support formatted HTML, with safe rendering across the site, the in-game news panel, and the post dialog.
• Stability and security. Hardened how posts are displayed to keep the game fast and safe.
