SSA Patch Notes – 2025_7_2

Steel Swarm: APOCALYPSE · published 10 Jul 2025, 07:30 UTC · build 19163230

Gameplay Adjustments

  • Mantis Kill Reward: Now granted to all living teammates, not just those nearby.

  • Minion Balance: Slight reduction in damage and HP to improve early game pacing.

  • Jungle Tweaks: Non-boss jungle units now deal slightly less damage.

New Feature: Command (Ping) System

A brand-new ping wheel system has been added for faster and more strategic in-game communication:

How It Works:

  • Hold Left Shift to open the Command Wheel. Move your mouse in a direction to select a command, then release Shift to send it.

  • Ping via minimap or ally portraits is also supported.

  • Right-click cancels the wheel.

  • Keyboard shortcut (1–6) support for fast access.

Anti-Spam Logic:

  • Sending 5 commands within 5 seconds will lock the system for 5 seconds to prevent spam.

Default Commands:

  1. Caution

  2. Setting Course

  3. Need Assistance

  4. Enemy Missing

  5. Engage

  6. Survey the Area

Contextual Side Commands:

Depending on the target (ally, jungle, structure), commands adapt contextually. For example:

  • Caution + ally = “X, Fall Back”

  • Engage + enemy structure = “Attack X”

  • Need Assistance + base = “Defend X”

Audio Updates

  • Adjusted engine sounds for Inso, FF machine gun, and all XBT units for better clarity and mix.
