Howdy folks!
At long last we have another Experimental Build for the Update 117 cycle. This Update introduces a new (WIP) scene called the Qualification Range. This Sandbox scene differs from most of H3's other Sandbox scenes in that there are ambient Sosigs that have a multi-state behavior scheme. The first behaviors we've gotten working are a loop between grabbing a lane to shoot at, and returning to an Ammo station when they run out of ammo. The plan is to add a few more to these to create a more organic and lively range simulation.
Beyond that, this update includes a bunch of enhancement to the Destructible door system designed to generalize their behavior. Patrols spawned in the Grillhouse scene drop keys for the doors, the reset buttons are back, and a bunch of things are moving into place that will allow modders to start adding Destructible door to their maps (starting next week).
Anywho, if you'd like to see what else has changed check out the devlog above. As always, leave a bug report in the bug reports section of the forum or discord if you run into issues!
Have a wonderful weekend!
