Hello!
Thank you for playing the game and leaving your feedback.

Here is this month's changelog:

M:\Modding

  • Create custom world maps with the restored in-game map editor. Press f6 then f10 on the global map screen 1-9 to change the draw type, ENTER to save to a file in your save folder.
  • Choose what sound will your custom weapon play with the new parameter "base_gun"
  • Bullets will mimic some of the mechanics of another weapon type with the new parameter "base_gun"
  • Control walls default durability with the new parameter in the balance file

I:\Interface

  • Hovering over weapon icons on mechs in engineering, hangar, and battles will show full information about the gun, including fire rate, accuracy, damage, and armor penetration.
  • Improved the visibility of the switch(scroll wheel) for huge weapons in the production menu
  • Various small fixes in RU and ENG localisations

B:\Balance

  • ///Buffs
  • Increased speed of Colubra's energy sphere by 10%
  • Increased power of Colubra's energy sphere by 10%
  • Improved loot in the cities, making it more viable mid-game
  • All walls became 15% more durable
  • Worry a little less about sending ordinary humans into infected maps with a lower chance of infection from 100% to 60% per hit
  • Increased health of the Frog Boss from the Satellite crash site map by 30%
  • ///Nerfs
  • Ballistic projectiles will be 20% more slowed when passing through enemies
  • Increased 5 times the cost of production of all internal components for reactors of the second and third tiers
  • Lowered speed of drone's repair by 15%
  • Rockets will have a delayed activation that will prevent them from exploding when contacting a wall too soon. The delay is constant so huge explosions can still reach your mechs.

H:\Hangar

  • Remember each fallen hero with the new memorial wall in the pilots' menu. Click at the bottom to open it.

C:\Combat

  • Rediscover the Flamethrower and Toxin Sprayer with proper damage-dealing registration
  • The leader of the squad will be a little more responsive to your commands
  • To better show that the enemy's projectiles aren't penetrating the mech's armor they will ricochet
  • Fixed the wrong priority number of enemy turrets. They were marked as Ovums
  • Annoying tornadoes won't spawn too close to your squad anymore
  • You will have time to disable weapons with the removed delay before autopause at the start of the mission
  • Satellite crash site map will have more open spaces

O:\Other_changes

  • Fixed achievement "I SAY KILL THEM ALL". It now should properly count the last kills.
  • Fixed the crash related to mod upload gml_Object_obj_controller_Other_69 (line 58)
  • Ovums' tentacles got a new animation that changes their thickness depending on the length
