Parallel has pushed Patch 1.0.11 to Colony. It adds daily login rewards, limited-time special offers and a reworked Appearance tab for Avatars. You also get new tutorials and bug fixes for Lane Combat, the Barracks and in-app purchases. On mobile, the game is a free download listed as Colony:Survival, and the full patch notes are also in the game’s Discord server.
New features for players
Logging in each day now earns you free rewards. The patch also starts a series of limited-time special offers, beginning with a Thanksgiving Bundle.
Open the Customization menu and the Appearance tab now shows a preset list of default options for changing how your Avatar looks. If you own custom Avatars, you can view and equip them in that same tab.
Fabricated helmets should now sit better on your Avatar’s head without any manual work. The patch notes warn that this resets any adjustments you already made to equipped fabricated helmets, so you’ll have to adjust them again.
Recruited Colonists lose one step. When you try to use a colonist whose Mood is too low, the “Low Mood” warning pop-up now has an option to send them straight to the Medbay.
Tutorials
- New tutorials for Scouting and Attacking quests on the PvP World Map.
- New tutorials for Avatar Narrative Dilemmas.
- New NPC dialogue for Ivo Quell at the Fabricator every time the building levels up.
- Improved tutorials for Lane Combat and Combat Teams.
Bug fixes
Lane Combat had a bug that sometimes stopped players from starting the next battle after winning the previous one, and the patch fixes it. Fog no longer sometimes comes back over Region 1 on the Battle Map, and a lighting problem in the Modify Team menu is fixed.
Gim’s Shop now unlocks correctly when the Reactor hits level 3. The Barracks no longer sometimes shows the legacy UI, and your Avatar should now appear when you open the Customization menu.
For stability, the patch fixes some crashes on devices with lower-spec GPUs. In-app purchases now handle errors better and have fewer problems with disconnects.
