- Patch Title: CHR$(143) version 1.28: new and improved building strategies!
- Patch Release Date: April 5, 2024
The developer of CHR$(143) has released a new update for the game on April 5, 2024. Here are the new things that you should expect to see or change on this new update. This information was curated directly from the official announcement on Steam.
Version 1.28 has been released 🙂
This version introduces a fun new feature (which has been much requested…)
Four new building strategies have been introduced. These are explained at the end of level 11, but if you have solved it already and don’t want to solve it again, here are a few hints:
- the 2 historical strategies (“upward” and “downward“) are now completed by “leftward” and “rightward“: nothing revolutionary, the agent builds in an imposed direction (and digs in the opposite direction beforehand): simple and stupid, but very predictable…
- the 5th strategy is “bestward“: the agent chooses the best of the first 4 strategies according to what there is to build (which is often sufficient and relatively predictable)
- the 6th and last strategy is “smartward“: this is by far the most advanced one, but it is much less predictable (even if perfectly deterministic) and, let’s be humble, rarely as perfect as what one could do with one’s own brain! However, you might get used to it (and it’s a bit hard to give it up…)
In any case, none of these strategies should damage your agent, unless there are danger zones nearby…
PS. you can use the setup menu to set the default strategy when entering a level…
