Happy new year, everyone (even for those who did not celebrate that yet)! This year brings many exciting things for us at Behold, but let’s not get ahead of ourselves here. Since we came back from our break, we are fully focused on fixing what we didn’t have time to fix before the holidays. We are now attacking mostly the offline bugs, since those affect everyone playing the game, but we should go back to the online multiplayer issues soon.
Improvements
- [COM] Added a priority in grabbing, so that trying to get important things like the Mop, the Water Bucket and Aliens is now easier;
- [COM] The menu screen now gets the focus back to the buttons when a controller is used, even before the tutorial hasn’t been finished;
- The area cleaned by the water bucket now reflects better the water VFX it has;
- The usage of network in online games is now significantly reduced due to better optimization;
Rebalance
- Mixer now takes 50% more time to produce a battery after the input of the third organic item;
Interface
- Settings no longer shows the controller scheme if there is no controller connected;
- [COM] Fixed Polish and Turkish fonts to properly display what is written;
- [COM] Fixed tabs text on settings to properly fit the canvas even when using other languages;
Bug Fixes
- [COM] Fixed bug that caused building items the player hasn’t yet unlocked to crash the game;
- [COM] Fixed another issue that allowed players to receive items from other players while using appliances;
- Alien animation of “digging” into an appliance to get it dirty has been added back to the game;
- Throwing water over an Alien that are transforming into a Flying Alien now properly results in a stunned regular Alien.
- Fixed visual bug causing players to fall from hunger without animating it;
- Fixed issue with the Clean Bot CB-8 skins;
