Dear all,
The 1st staging build for V1.07d-3 has been released. To access the staging build:
1) Right-click on Foresight
2) Properties
3) Betas
4) Select "staging" in the 1st dropdown box.
5) Password is abcdef123456
Implementations
- Implemented reticle system for sector map
- Fleets will also use reticles to indicate their intentions
- Sector map reticles include:
a) Purple reticle (your current location)
b) White reticle (the sectors which you have direct command over the units)
c) Red reticle (possible enemy position)
d) Green reticle (suggested attack paths)
- Fleet intentions include:
a) Movement to edge (light green reticle around the border)
b) Movement to center (orange reticle that scales down to the center)
c) Attack (light red reticle)
d) None - (Fleet color reticle shows and zooms in slowly)
Modifications
- Tutorial for Mission 2 has been improved vastly to teach you step by step.
Bug Fixes
- Fixed a regression bug that prevents the minimap to be used as a means to issue orders, ie, move, attack move.
- Fixed a small bug with the moon on mission 4 where it's clipped when the camera rotates to a certain angle.
- Improved marked for death lists in multiplayer to eliminate the destruction on creation bug (which is VERY remote)
Conclusion
The focus of this patch is to allow you to try out the new tutorial missions and provide feedback if possible on how we can further improve it. All the other missions will be worked on with a possible new doodad system coming up as well.
The purpose of the next patch will be on the missions and they will come right after we've finished revamping each mission.
Thanks for your support as always and sorry that we need more time to sort things out.
Regards,
Jeremy
