Patch notes for version 1.0.19
Note that this patch will be released for MacOS this weekend.
This update contains some significant PvP improvements and lots of QoL updates, besides the usual bug fixes.
One of the bigger changes is that when your match rules use the “set to level 50” rule, all Coromon in online battles will have the maximum number of Potential points possible. Whether you have a level 1 Standard Toruga, or a level 99 Perfect Swurmy, in online battles they will have the same amount of Potential Points. You can distribute these points in the online menu. If you don’t manually distribute them, the remaining points will be distributed randomly.
This will make the competitive scene more accessible for new players, since you no longer have to grind for the perfect team. Of course using your Perfect Coromon in battles will still be the ultimate showoff!
To make PvP even more accessible, players can now use a Loan Squad in the online menu. This Loan Squad consists of a set of randomly generated Coromon and held items, which you can regenerate whenever you want, to try out new things! We’ll be tweaking and improving this feature in later updates.
Another big change is that Skill Flashes now have infinite uses. If you already used one before the update, you will find it again in your inventory.
Glitches/Crashes
If you experience graphical issues or crashes, here are three solutions that seemed to help for a number of players.
Verify Steam Files
https://help.steampowered.com/en/faqs/view/0C48-FCBD-DA71-93EB
Run as administrator
Run coromon.exe as administrator by navigating to Steam's install folder and right-click on the coromon.exe file, then select “Run as administrator”. By default the installation folder is C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\Coromon
Disable Discord overlay
You can disable the overlay by booting up Coromon, navigate to the settings in Discord and then click on Activity Indicator. There you can disable the overlay just for Coromon.
