Patch #1 for the Rogue Battalion Demo is out now with some small changes and bug fixes. Here are the notes:
Balance Changes:
- Strafing run cooldown has been decreased from 25 seconds to 20 seconds. The main benefit of the strafing run is that it should be usable very frequently as opposed to the other air support abilities.
Fixes:
- Strafing Runs now use the proper audio channels. Before, they were stuck on the main audio loop and their 6 machine guns quickly filled up the list of audio sources.
- Grenade explosions are now working again. They were not assigned to an audio channel and were throwing a null reference exception preventing the rest of their explosion code from executing. This has been fixed so assault troop grenades are once again useful.
- Touchscreen functionality has been fixed a bit for the steam deck. There was an issue where using an ability with the touch screen would cause the ability to go where the targeting reticle used to be instead of where you tap on the screen. This has been fixed.

We adjusted some things to make the difficulty start a little more fair to the player but then ramp back up to where it was by the end of the demo. Hard difficulty has not been tou…
