Hello all,
Brass Brigade has now been released for over 5 years! To celebrate, the game will be 50% off in the upcoming Steam Autumn Sale, so if you haven't yet picked it up, this will be a great opportunity to do so!
I have spent some of my holiday time tracking down and fixing bugs that have snuck in over the last few updates:
Bugfixes
- Further tweaked enemy tank, artillery, machine gun AI to be reasonably aggressive at detecting and shooting targets.
- Fixed infantry anti-tank weapons (Bazooka, PIAT, panzerschreck, etc) being able to one-hit almost any tank. They now take several hits, with perpendicular shots doing the most damage. The more shallow the angle, the less damage done.
- Player character no longer erroneously omits voice lines intended for bots
- Player character no longer erroneously exits prone or crouch position when a medic or resupply soldier is approaching him.
Thanks
Hope you all have a happy Thanksgiving week. I'm thankful for your support - I wouldn't have felt quite as compelled to support BB for these 5 long years without knowing there were so many people who enjoyed it. For example, the success of my game made it possible for me to travel to a WW2 reenactment in Illinois (I drove from Michigan!) to get some research materials back when I was looking to implement the jeeps, halftracks, and trucks. Here are a few pictures I took along the way - thought you might appreciate them now that those vehicles have been implemented.
I have a few more bug fixes slated to tackle in the coming days/weeks. Until then, enjoy some turkey :)
Cheers,
-Henry.
