Update 0.6.9 - Introducing the G18

Hey Everyone,

For our second update in "Gun Week", the G18 is making its appearance in Down To One. With the most recoil of any gun in the game when firing in fully-automatic, it's sure to test your reflexes!
On top of that, we've got a big nerf to snakes, that should move them into more of a "pest" role, as opposed to their current "more dangerous than a player with a melee weapon" role :) Oh, and now you can record GIFs with the click of a button!

Read on for the full patch notes.

Additions and Improvements

  • Added the G18 Pistol -Firing 9mm rounds, the G18 is the first selectable fire-mode pistol in Down To One. When set to full auto, it will fire its 17-bullet clip at a blazing fast 1100 RPM, although with a steep damage dropoff and uncontrollable recoil, you will need to be up close to your enemy.
  • Added the G18 Mag
  • Decreased snake health damage amount by 50%
  • Increased size of snake hitboxes
  • Decreased snake health by 25%
  • Increased snake thirst damage amount by 2
  • Decreased snake movement speed
  • Added GIF recording - simply hit F9 (default) to start and stop recording a GIF!
  • Added !ping command
  • Buffed the heli crash spawner (spawns more items quicker)

Bug fixes

  • Fixed issue with large black pixel artefacts appearing on bright surfaces
  • Added in a potential fix for the positions of items being incorrect on clients that have joined the game late
  • Reduced snakes tendency to glitch-jump at you
  • "Use Voip" setting now actually works properly, and will give you a performance increase in servers where there are a lot of people talking (if you have it off, of course)
  • Improved start-up time
  • Re-enabled static batching (optimization)
  • Fixed instances of server not always restarting
