Demo Build 0.1.0.2c

Tutorials

• The tutorial for building a tent now accepts any type of shed or tent, not just the basic one.

Combat

• Added ammunition types and reloading mechanics for all ranged weapons. Ammunition replaces Stamina cost for ranged abilities when enabled. At the moment, it's an experimental feature and can be toggled in the settings.
• Added second and third combo moves for all melee default attacks: Sword, Blunt Weapon, and Polearm.
• Added a parry ability for Unarmed combat.
• Added a visual indicator to show when the enemy attack can be parried. It can be toggled on and off in the Settings menu.
• Added a visual indicator for strong and charge enemy attacks that cannot be parried and immobilize the character on hit. It can be toggled on and off in the Settings menu.
• Added a knockdown effect to successful parries.
• Character movement speed is now preserved after dodging.
• Changed the first combo move for Sword, Blunt Weapon, and Polearm default attacks.
• When only the first combo ability is learned, it will automatically transition into the default combo. When two or more combo abilities are learned, they will be used in a cycle without switching to the default one (the same way it worked before). This change is aimed to prevent situations where the character could only use a single attack and to make combat more fluid.
