PATCH NOTES

New Features:

  • Added tooltips to explain stats in run end screen

  • Implemented option not to defeat remaining enemies after a boss fight

Balancing:

  • Added Bone Golem and Jester to Adam's starting squad, removed Bone Rat

  • Re-animated enemies no longer respond to player rally

  • Friendly units (other than re-animated ones) now stay closer to Adam

  • Changed one War Drummer to veteran for Yorick's starting squad

Fixes:

  • Fixed issue with some repeatable achievements (Burn kills, enemy Freezes, Plague kills, Rot kills, Re-animated enemies raised) that prevented them from firing. Please note: these achievements will unfortunately need to be attained again for users that failed to receive them. Apologies!

  • Prevented portal automatically triggering if it spawns on top of player after Elite fight

  • Fixed apparent joystick sensitivity issues in navigating UI

  • Fixed bug related to deleting corpse objects

  • Fixed bug related to spawning particle effects in Wraith Vendor

  • Reset pathfinding at the end of a level instead of before generating a new grid (to reduce crash risk)

  • Fixed minor localisation issues (French, Polish, German) in achievements

Misc:

  • Updated tutorial to highlight Explorer Mode

  • Display custom threat message for glitched gibberish threat level in run end screen

  • Added logging when a unit object isn't removed cleanly (DAABBCC crash)

  • Added community translation credit (thanks MonoLight_연참 for help with Korean)
