Patch notes ver 0.9.1.14
We continue our crusade against the bugs, and are making solid progress! In the last couple days we’ve fixed pathfinding bug, some critical crashes and implemented first batch of game performance optimisations!
- Fixed bosses death animation causing a progress soft lock (this time for good)
- Improved garbage collection (should bring less lag spikes in late game fights)
- Improved orx collision performance (should bring less constant cpu lag from large armies) — Improved object pool (should reduce lag on ultra fast attack speed units during firing)
- Cairns visuals updated
- Trickster boss now does not spawn in act 1
- Rune of gust visuals updated
- Locale fixes here and there
- A pathfinding fix that should solve problems with huge spawns leaving stuck units in terrain and breaking pathfinding in lategame.
- Fixed an issue when some players experienced a black screen on game start (this won't help with all black screens since there are a few more cases, but will solve this one)
- Hotfixing an error in one of the recent patches with black screen in some menus
We’ve also made some balancing changes to card enchantments:
- Infinite enchant now increases the cost of the card by 1X after every use
- Vigor now doubles the amount of charges on a card
- Static now reduces the cost of the card in half if it was in your hand at the time of redraw (it can go to 0 after a few redraws)
As always, if you have encountered a problem, be sure to share it on the platform of your choice
