Dear Protectors of the Light,
While we work towards our incredibly exciting Content Update coming at the end of the month, we bring you another Patch Update to help keep the Darkness from creeping in.
With the release of the Refined Lumber Yard last month, we have improved the way the Lumber Yard upgrades, so now when upgrading you will be prevented from doing so if it intersects with a Refined Lumber Yard. Along with this we have added all new Units and buildings to the Hot-Key Overrides section so you are able to change the Key Remapping.
We know how much you have loved the Pikeman, but perhaps you don’t want them crying out every time you interact with them, so we have reduced the amount of Audio Bark Lines when commanding your Unit.
As always we aim to eliminate as many bugs as possible, with the most notable being Edwin’s Crackfire not damaging enemies at full range and a fix for our faithful Heroes getting stuck. We have made multiple fixes and improvements to address the readability of Units and UI, as well as Buildings displaying the correct UI and ensuring using the arrows to scroll between buildings will scroll through the same type.
Until next time, start collecting all the Dark Essence you can, fortify your defenses and keep your eye open for teasers around our next Update…
As always please continue to report bugs to our Steam forums or in the bug reporting channel on our Discord, as we’re constantly monitoring those channels.
Check out the full patch notes below:
