The patch 0.0.3 is the biggest so far and drops a ton of new content in the game. We can see so far that Mud and Blood steam edition will pack a fair amount of punch with faster TTK and movement speed. All this combined with the intended depth and asymmetry you guys have been exposed to since the start of this crazy adventure 12 years ago. I will be linking few videos from our testers if you are looking to see how the game is progressing. But for now, here's the list of changes.
0.0.3
- Added sprites for gibs
- Added the flare action sprites
- Added Fighter Strafe for Axis troops, also known as close air support (CAS)
- Added a layer for planes to be drawn on top of everything
- Added directional cover that soldiers can stand behind while their back is still exposed to incoming fire (Fences, cars etc..)
- Reduced size of explosions for the strafe
- Changed values of explosions, notably the panzerfaust.
- Added artillery for Axis troops
- Added gibbing
- Added cue text (little informative text that floats above soldiers)
- Changed a feature in the engine for some particle to leave trails. Used in gibbing when body parts leave blood trails.
- Added various sounds notably artillery
- Optimized the procedural reloading sounds to be more timely

- Gave a new loadout to the Alpha testers 2 Garands, 1 Tommy, 1 Sten, 1 Shotgun, 1 M1919
- Fixed a glitch where particles would bend their trajectories when flying. that one was very annoying. the joy of making your own engine.
- Fixed a visual glitch where a soldier that would lose LOS would keep aiming in that direction forever.
- Fixed a glitch where if two soldiers were close to each other selecting them would select both.
