Features & Improvements
New scripting loop nodes
Added 3 new loops which allow you to quickly implement timers and linear interpolation without using the update node and variables.
- TimedLoop runs every frame for 'duration' seconds
- LinearLoops runs every frame for 'duration' seconds and linearly interpolates between two values during that time
- SmoothStepLoop works like LinearLoop but uses a interpolation function that smooths the beginning and ending of the interpolation
Unlike the EndlessLoop node, these nodes can be started multiple times in one script and will then run concurrently
Fog zones
Added fog areas to the scripting view. You can create fog cubes with custom size, color and intensity. These areas can be controlled with scripts to change the visuals dynamically based on gameplay events.
Collection node
Added a scripting collection input node which outputs and array, but allows you to select multiple references at once in the scripting view instead of having to create and select an input node for each individual reference.
Zombie infection option
Added an option to the battle settings which will result in the zombie infection to spread.
- If a unit gets bitten by a zombie, it will transform into a zombie after 2.5 - 3.5 seconds
- While the bitten unit is transforming, zombies will be far less aggressive towards that unit
- If a bitten unit dies, it will stay dead but still turn into a rotten corpse
- Feral and poisoned zombies will cause the infected unit to transform into a feral/poisoned zombie as well
- If the player gets bitten, its body will start to rot which will result in the player dying after 7-10 seconds
Other improvements
- Future walkers and mechs will now break apart when being destroyed
- Saved at path message will now hide the default path similar to the file browser
- Recycle bin errors (missing permission, etc) will now be visible in the console
