You can't change the key unfortunately.
You could try pressing it at the same time as other keys (Ctrl or shift or something else) so that it wont go to sleep. Or somehow disable the sleep function. -
Interesting Idea, so basically the opposite of the programmer captain.

Thanks for the drone! I'll analyze it as soon as I have a bit of time, currently pretty busy with release preparation stuff

Dear Drone Engineers,
We just released a new Nimbatus Update containing new Ice Planets, a new Introduction for the Survival Mode, Steam Achievements and much more! Check out the Patchnotes for a full list of changes.
We have translated the game into more languages with the help of our players! French, German, Chinese, Japanese, Korean, Polish, Brazilian Portuguese, Russian, Spanish and Turkish are almost completely translated. Czech, Dutch and Finnish are not ready yet and will be added in a future update depending on the translation progress.
If you find text errors or spelling mistakes, please head over to our Crowdin page and suggest a better translation! If you want to help translate Nimbatus into another language please write us a message or post in our forum!
We plan to release the full version of Nimbatus in about a month! For this we'd like to fix as many bugs as possible. If you have any crashes or find bugs, please report them in our forum or on our discord.Patchnotes 1.0.2

What if it doesn't crash, but hangs?
In that case, leave the game "hanging" and collect the logfile in the meantime. If we are lucky the reason it hangs is logged.

I guess it's because of the high resolution. Try to lower the resolution and check if the Icons are still that small.
It's something we'd have to fix to support retina resolutions.- 1

The mission target should change to the artefact as soon as two torches are lit.

Thanks the logfile helps! I'll analyze it next week

Dear Drone Engineers,
We just released a preview build of the release version of Nimbatus. It would be awesome if you could test this build and report any bugs you can find!
The full release of Nimbatus is getting closer! For this we are translating the game into more languages. It's not yet finished, but you can already change the language and see what has been translated so far.
If you find text errors or spelling mistakes, please head over to our Crowdin page and suggest a better translation!
https://crowdin.com/project/nimbatus.We still plan to continue updating Nimbatus after the release, but the full release is an important step for us and we hope to get many new players on board
Please note: the new achievements are not yet working for the default game version, only for the preview version!

Cheers,
Stray Fawn StudioHere is how you can get the preview build on steam:
– Open your Steam library
– Right click on Nimbatus in the Steam library
– Select Properties / Beta
– Select the Beta tab
– Select preview from the drop down
– Restart steam in case the game does not update automatically or you can't see the preview branch- 3

Hmm I'd need your logfile to check out whats causing the problems.
Here is explained how to find the logfile:
-
It should be a danger zone, I'll check it out.

Thanks for the logs! We will analyze and fix it.

Update 0.9.6: We just uploaded a hotfix that fixes the Mission with the Energy Tower. The Battery-tower accidentally spawned inside the shield and was pretty tricky to destroy.

Dear Drone Engineers,
We are super happy how the community translations are progressing!
This is how the current progress looks like:We just opened a new Beta branch on Steam called "translation". We will update it weekly and you can use it to check if the translations are correct. This build is the current development build, so there could be some bugs or unfinished features inside. We are also testing a new font that can support more languages than the current one.
If you want to help with translating the game or suggest some better translations, please join our Crowdin project for your language here: https://crowdin.com/project/nimbatus
You might have to wait a few hours before the join request gets accepted, as we do them manually
Cheers and Thanks,

If you add Danish to the list, I can assist with that.
Please send me a message when it is added to let me know.
Also:
EU Regulation 2016/679 commonly known as GDPR states in Recital 32:
"Consent should be given by a clear affirmative act establishing a freely given, specific, informed and unambiguous indication of the data subject's agreement to the processing of personal data relating to him or her, such as by a written statement, including by electronic means, or an oral statement. This could include ticking a box when visiting an internet website, choosing technical settings for information society services or another statement or conduct which clearly indicates in this context the data subject's acceptance of the proposed processing of his or her personal data. Silence, pre-ticked boxes or inactivity should not therefore constitute consent. Consent should cover all processing activities carried out for the same purpose or purposes. When the processing has multiple purposes, consent should be given for all of them. If the data subject's consent is to be given following a request by electronic means, the request must be clear, concise and not unnecessarily disruptive to the use of the service for which it is provided."
http://data.europa.eu/eli/reg/2016/679/oj
The signup process for new accounts has a pre-ticked checkbox for signing up to a newsletter.
This is illegal in EU and for companies wishing to sell products in the EU.
Thanks for notifying, I changed the checkbox.
I'll add danish if we have at least 2 translators
