Ahoy there!
- AI Pathfinding
In this latest update we're testing a new pathfinding system which is used by the enemy guard chaser AI in the Story Mode.
Here is a video showing the "stupid" AI before and how the enemy guards act after the update:

- Fullscreen / windowed
You can now change the window mode and resize the window!
- Aesthetic things
Added lens flares when firing cannons and a few lighting effects!
- Level changes
All of the sneaky missions have slightly changed to accommodate the new pathfinding system. There are also a few new secret areas on these missions!
- Commanding
At the moment you can hire Helpers from the Tavern who will load ammo boxes and fire cannons. They'll also respond to the "I need ammo!" command if they're currently holding a cannon ball and bring it to the nearest player.
Very soon the Helper AI with also have a similar pathfinding system and we hope to implement a new way of "commanding" the helpers.
This will help mainly in Singleplayer because you'll be able to select what cannons and boxes the AI will use and give new orders like "Fire the cannons!" or "Reload the cannons"
