Howdy Folks!
So the Unity Engine has made a liar out of me, and it seems another week of Alpha-ing was needed. I got a bit buried the past couple days fighting with a set of bot pathing issues that revealed some major bugs (or at least undocumented suboptimal behavior) in the Unity navmesh system that I ended up having to engineer around. For any of you who are devs, be aware that navmesh carving can break otherwise valid offmeshlinks if their endpoints are floated off the mesh! (and discovering that chesnut only wasted two frustrating days of my life).
ANYWHO, moving along, the other big thing this week is that all of the rework, fixing, tweaking and optimization that’s been done to the movement and collision handling for Armswinger the past month or so has now been migrated over to the Touchpad / Joystick / Twinstick movement modes. Please let me know if anything glitches out on you, but they’ve been fairly robustly tested, and I’m hoping they’re stable enough that I can wrap this update up FINALLY.
Lastly, the completion of this update will return Global scoreboards to Take & Hold next week, along with something… extra special to celebrate the end of this looooong alpha cycle. I hope y’all are ready for something weapons-grade stupid :-P.
Hope y’all have a wonderful weekend!
Cheers,
Anton
