Gameplay
-We are playing around with Sprinting and attacking; you can now initiate an attack while sprinting, and you'll sprint through the windup of the attack into your swing. We hope this makes Hero play a bit more aggressive; especially when chasing down targets. When we get around to revamping the AI, units will also be capable of this.
Health regen
Improved the health regeneration rate of units across the board.
Overseer -
From 5 health per minute to 8 health per minute.
Guardsman -
From 1 health per minute to 5 health per minute.
Vanguard -
From 1 health per minute to 8 health per minute.
Sergeant -
From 1 health per minute to 10 health per minute.
Lobby
Made improvements to the lobby; now players can correctly see each other in game. We still have a lot more we could do in this department and we’re working to make this experience better every day
Bug fixes/Performance
-The file size has increased to roughly 4GB; I'm going to look into why this is, but I'm guessing the new Engine version is the reason behind this.
-Fatal Error on startup, or when switching to windowed mode (i.e. Low Level Fatal Error [Line : 249]) should be fixed. If this happens to anyone again, please don't hesitate to say so, because it's one of those bugs that is blatantly unacceptable
-Cloth physics shouldn't super stretch, and won't be delayed by performance. This was hard to notice, and was completely engine related. Luckily migrating the project fixed this. Looking forward to taking advantage of this with new weapons and armor in the near future!
-Ray tracing should look better; and by extension lighting and reflections in general. This is due to 4.26 having a more complete version as opposed to the beta version we were using in 4.23
-Players connected as a client can now issue commands on hovered units using Right Click
-Hero names replicate properly to the client
-Made some slight adjustments to pathfinding; unit's which failed to find a path when forming up would previously freeze in place. Now they should just run to the cursor location
-The "Equip Your Soldiers!" achievement should actually register on completion
