Hello folks,
What a week!? We have more updates!
The Haunt ability was getting complicated and still didn't feel good to use so I have stripped the push pull of infection and health because it already blinds but also made the effect more engaging. Now you select two points and a ball of energy flies through damaging and adding stacks for a killer blind. It also triggers building damage with Infect. Have a great weekend!
Modified Abilities:
Haunt - Summon an entity that travels in a straight-line blinding foes.
Bleed - Infect on-hit and damage overtime after stacks build. More refinement coming.
Bug Fixes:
Simulation NPC Pathfinding doesn't get stuck as easily.
Thank you very much for following the development of Defi's Devotion. Good luck on your path to immortality.

NPCs now fear zombies if not armed and flee. This also allowed me to replace the blind effect with a fear effect. When using the purple orb ability, stacks now cause fear. Within the simulation, NPCs produce Food for bring in more people. They also collect Wood, Ore, Mana, and Gold to produce Weapons and Spells. To give…Saturday Morning Quick FixDiscovered last night that the Seed menu spawners were not working so this morning I got them fixed! Now when you ask the seed to spawn a root it spawns it directly in the simulation and the other systems pick up spawning the actor. This also allowed me to test more reliably those latter systems. Previously the NPCs had only an unreliable way to know their status from the simulation. This worke…
