Bug Fixes & Optimization

• Fixed tasks added to Nuclear Polus that could sometimes fail to work properly following the latest Challenger Mira update.

• Fixed a bug with the Guardian's shield where, if a Vector or Sheriff attempted to kill the protected player, the shield would never break!

• Fixed a bug with the Cleaner's Clean ability where its state (cooldown, channeling time, number of uses) was not properly reset between games.

• Fixed a bug where some role ability buttons could sometimes be duplicated, causing cooldown timers to be displayed twice.

• Fixed a bug where the Judge could sometimes cause the game to crash during meetings when using their ability

• Fixed a bug that could sometimes prevent the Jester role from winning.

Balancing

Eater Role: The number of corpses required to win in 13, 14, and 15-player games has been increased from 2 to 3.

• Morphling Role: Can now target fellow Impostors.

Basilisk Role: Can now target fellow Impostors, or itself if no other target is available, with its Petrify ability. Petrification can also now be canceled to switch targets, which will trigger a short delay.

Spy Role: The cooldown of the Spy ability has been reduced from 30s to 25s. The Spy can now also move while spying, and a new visual effect has been added to make the ability clearer and more effective.

Crewmate: Vision Bonus: The night vision granted by this bonus has been slightly increased.

Map - Airship: The map can now be played with 10–15 players instead of 13–15. Games with 10–12 players will have x1 Impostor, while games with 13–15 players will have x2 Impostors.

New features

Sabotage : Overheating on Nuclear Polus

• A new sabotage has been added to Nuclear Polus. The sabotage dissipates on its own and lasts between 6–15 seconds depending on the number of players currently alive. It only affects outdoor areas, where numerous projectiles are launched and can hit players, killing them! (Impostors are immune, and the various shields can protect players!)

Shield T1 (First round)

• A new option called "Server" is now available for the first-round shield. This allows the shield to be managed server-side through the API. Instead of automatically giving the shield to the first player who died in the previous game, the API analyzes the amount of time each player spent dead over their previous 10 games and grants the shield to the player who spent the most time dead.

New Impostor Roles (Pool: Shifter):

• Riftmancer - Once per game, the Transporter can randomly swap the positions of all players.

- Number of uses: x1
- Cooldown (before use): 25s

• Mindweaver - Once per round, the Controller can take control of another player's body and can even kill through them. The controlled player can only watch helplessly as their body is used during the effect!

- Number of uses: x1 per round
- Controller ability cooldown: 25s
- Controller ability duration: 12s (the ability can be canceled at any time)

• Voidscryer - During meetings, the Observer can mark as many players as they wish, including themselves. Once back in the game, they can use the Void ability to split reality into two planes of existence. Marked players are then sent into an alternate dimension, separated from the other players for a short duration.

- Number of uses: Unlimited
- Void ability cooldown: 30s
- Void ability duration: 10s

New Intruder Role :

• Maître (Master) - To win the game, the Master must prove their superiority by correctly guessing the roles of several players. If successful, the game immediately ends and the Master wins alone! The Master has several abilities that must be unlocked during the game, making investigations easier. Be careful: making too many mistakes could result in death!

- Vents Ability: The Master can use vents.
- Vision Ability: The Master gains enhanced vision.
- Voting Ability: The Master can see the votes cast by other players.
- Number of uses: x1 attempt per player, per meeting
- Number of failed attempts before dying: x5
- Correct guesses required to win: x4 with 10–12 players, x5 with 13–15 players
