Letters Of Marque Playtest · published
Balance:
- Doubled bow HP now that bow hit detection actually works. Bow hp is now 4x stern hp
- Marginally increased bow thickness (note: if you played an old patch, this is still way easier to hit than it was in the past)
Features:
- Added a compass
- AI in fights now have numbered names, to make them easier to distinguish \o/
- Cannon shots fired from point blank range (2 meters) now have increased armour penetration. The maximum point black penetration buff is equivalent to a fully degraded side of armour, and this value fades with distance
- Added a new setting to display boat names floating over the masts, which defaults to on
- Added optional double tap steering support in the overworld
Fixes:
- Fixed some sail physics issues after ramming someone
- Fixed some minor reconnection problems that I suspect nobody ever noticed, and added a user facing message if you hit valve's auth rate limit. Users may run into this if they start up the game twice within 60 seconds, and there's not much I can do about that in the short term
- Fixed an issue with key rebinding, where you could accidentally rebind keys by releasing the mouse, which often cropped up when swapping to the key rebinding tab. Now keys are only rebound when pressed
Misc Changes:
- AI ships are no longer scattered if there's only 1 attacked ship
- Reworked the join battle UI to fix some inconsistencies and problems
