tl;dr: two new items in shop, lots of bug fixes
Summary:
The Cortex robots got significantly buffed in the last patch so I decided to add some items to the shop in Grimridge that'll help the player. This includes a new status effect used by the Field Scientist, Deadlock, which only affects robots, and armor penetration for the Leadwarden. Also lots of bug fixes and slight improvements to UI.
Changes:
- Added status effect, Deadlock: stuns robots and the next damage they receive deals double damage and ignores armor
- Added armor penetration, now some enemies will ignore a percentage (or all) of the player's armor
- Two new items in the Grimridge shop that players can purchase to get one of these two new things
- Improved teleporter selection screen UI
- Thrax buffed
Known Issues:
- Cutscene after Thrax is broken, so it's removed for now
- Raider snipers are behaving incorrectly
- The bug where when your gun is inside a box or explosive barrel and it doesn't shoot is back (unfortunately)
- Rigsmith turret doesn't work, I'll be attempting to hotfix this soon
- Thrax's jump attack doesn't shoot out the wave thing anymore
What's Next:
- Augments, the replacement to the permanent progression stuff that was removed last patch
- The ability to sell items, and additional items to be found in the game world
- A screen on the pause menu that shows your character's stats, current perks, etc
- Rework to some of the Cortex, especially the beginning
- Probably another Thrax buff
Thanks, enjoy.
I look forward to everyone's feedback!
