Hey Testers, a new weapon and some quality of life changes are coming into Mimicry with this patch.

Content / Balance Changes

• New Exterminator Weapon: Revolver - Hunt mimics with precision using this classic six-shooter revolver!

• Tweaked invisible mimic opacity and made it scale based on distance from the observer’s camera (so mimics are more visible when closer to an exterminator)

• Spit bomb projectile size now scales with mimic size (but explosion radius remains constant), so Dwarf mimics’ spit bombs no longer spawn in the floor

• The weapon wall in the Laboratory exterminator spawn room is now usable only by exterminators during a match, in case you regret your weapon choices

• Exterminator nameplates are now visible during matches (and nameplate visibility in general can now be toggled on/off in the Settings menu)

• Added popup for the first time launching the game explaining that this is a playtest and you can leave feedback through pressing the (new) F8 hotkey

• Added new room variants to the Kitchen and Office in Laboratory

• Added resolution settings to options menu

• Improvements to Mimic camera so that it clips through things less often and works better when entering tight spaces (like the inside of a fridge!)

• Added mysterious set of locked doors to the lobby (what could be behind them?...)

• Adjusted weapon crosshairs to be less obtrusive

Bugfixes

• Fixed players who selected random team being given the editor team select widget when random teams was disabled

• Fixed a minor visual bug where translucent chairs would not return to opaque after dying as Mimic

• Fixed Baseball bat animation break

• Fixed Ready Up UI showing as readied up when returning to lobby after a match, even when you aren’t

• Fixed a variety of settings issues

• Fixed transform as prop noise from playing at world center for all players

• Fixed doors sometimes still being interactable while locked

• Fixed starting to get burned as an invisible Mimic still activating the flame particles

• Fixed spit bomb projectile occasionally dropping down to the floor on clients instead of firing outwards

• Fixed some issues with map specific stats (for matches played and won on each map) not updating properly (and the No Passive ability usage stat)

• Fixed tutorial mimic finder section not making sense with the updated mimic finder functionality where you have to activate it to use it

• Fixed mimic tendril outline obscuring vision when consuming while zoomed into first person mode as a mimic (did you know you can do this? Use the scroll wheel!)
