This update goes all in on a new tool: the Grappling Gun. The grappling gun provides a new angle of attack for potential boarders allowing them to expend a tool slot for a way aboard the enemy.
The tool also aids counter boarders, equalizing some boarding actions where one ship has difficulty boarding the other while not completely nullifying a quality engagement.
1.5.3
Major Features
- Added a grappling gun. The grappling gun is a short range boarding tool that pulls the user upon impact. Short range hits are accurate and long range hits are powerful. The grappling gun holds two charges and refills a charge every 30 seconds. Missing a shot refunds 15 seconds of the cooldown.
Minor Features
- Added a revolver board.
- Hitting the water at high speeds causes you to skip off the surface.
- You sink slower in water and lose velocity when you submerge.
- Remodeled fall damage to function based on fall speed on impact. This will allow a grappler to splat if grappling downwards so be wary.
Bug Fixes
- Refixed gatling gun audio.
- Fixed appearance location of build mode warnings.
- Server browser match timers could not count above ~33 minutes.
