More experiments are going on as usual. Also, as many of you already noticed, we have rolled back the 4 vs. 4 player limit in Touchdown between patches; it is now 5 vs. 5 again. We have also replaced the player smoother with a better one, which in return improved the hitbox rollbacks for hit registration, but it is minimal.
Gameplay
Fixed walljump launching you up due to “landing” just as it starts
Crowd control immunity is implemented into recovery dodges
Recovery dodge no longer has a minimum time check to execute it from a crowd control
Recovery dodge now refunds you 75% of the health you lost on the hit instance you recovered from
Crouch and emotes now let you get out of the animation with just movement in panic, without forcing you to jump out
Crouching starts to heal you after 0.3s with a curve that gets faster as you wait. Max heal amount is 40, but it will reduce your maximum health by the same amount it healed you
Jump attacks now do one last hit once they touch the ground, allowing us to reduce the mid-air downward hitboxes we needed to hit the ground from air
Game Modes
Practice Mode:
Fixed dummy not spawning correctly and staying in T pose
Dummy now spawns in a random Beta team location instead of map center (use /tp to relocate them)
