Version 0.09 Update

🛡️ Systems & Mechanics

• Combat & Damage

  • Added limited firing arc weapon system; converted Machine Gun Turret to limited arc and added turret adjustment mode for manual fire direction control

  • Fixed pulse laser scatter not working

  • Fixed limited arc weapon angle detection issue

  • Reduced Mortar Turret explosion radius (Lv1 80→60, Lv2 100→70, Lv3 120→80) and minimum edge damage ratio (0.3→0.2)

  • Fixed weapon fire rate not being affected by bullet time

• Building & Grid

  • Fixed map resource harvesting structures not consuming grid resources

  • Fixed buildings being placeable on grids occupied by rebuilding structures
