Patch 0.8.949 (on patchtest)

I've just uploaded a new patch for the game. We've decided to roll out patches to a test build first before setting them live to prevent introducing accidental bugs. We could use some people to help test the current patch.

The following enables the 'patchtest' build:

  1. Go to Steam Library
  2. Right click on Critical Annihilation
  3. Click on Properties in the popup menu
  4. Click on the [Beta] tab in the screen that pops up
  5. It'll show a page with a dropdown to select a beta version, select "patchtest" (You can go back at any time by selecting "None" here)
  6. Close the window and it'll start applying the patch

Here are the patch notes:

  • Fixed support units not firing on lower framerates
  • Fixed stats not saving when pressing escape on the character screen
  • Fixed game acting up when trying to enter screenshot mode while restarting the level
  • Fixed continue button being enabled when dead
  • Added controller support, might need to reset controls to default or rebind manually to get them to work. (Menu's still require mouse/keyboard)
  • Changed default AA setting to SMAA
  • Removed medium settings for Precision on the physics settings tab, it was causing massive slowdowns
  • Changed screenshotmode from F12 to F11 so it no longer conflicts with steam

Secondary weapons currently fire at a set distance when using a controller. Looking into different options to see what feels best. If you have any ideas please feel free to share them on the steam forum.
