Hey there AFF Community!
While we’re wrapping things up for the tutorial and the upcoming 1.0 release, here’s a smaller patch to mend some of the issues left over from the previous update:
Fixes to player stats and achievements
A few of the 100+ achievements introduced in Update 29 didn’t quite register correctly and needed some touching up. But more importantly, a pesky bug creeped in alongside the achievements which made the game not read player stats (levels) correctly from Steam every other match. That should be fixed now.
Input and UI cleanup
Passenger seats in vehicles and secondary turrets in spaceships had problems with their controls freezing completely, that’s no longer the case. Furthermore a number of UI issues and oddities got smoothed out along the way.
Map polish
Both the recently-released Majuro map and the older levels received a number of fixes to weird collision and visual glitches.
As usual - for feedback, or just a lovely chat with the devs, hop on our Discord server!
Onwards and upwards!
Hotfix changelog:
