BUILD 3849 - Halloween, balance and QOL changes
[ 2021-11-01 13:22:30 CET ] [ Original post ]
It has been a while before the last update, but we're back with a load of improvements with more to come within the next few weeks! First, an important note: Unfortunately, macOS support has been dropped. It was already unplayable for a while on recent macOS versions due to Apple dropping 32-bit support completely. This, plus various technical challenges mean we are not able to maintain the macOS version of the game anymore. We may be able to fix this in the future - but with our limited resources, we sadly can't right now. Update highlights:
- Mild quarry nerf - the quarry produces less stone after some time
- Spectator slots have been added, meaning you can now spectate a game without taking up an in-game slot. This also means you can join when a server is full, and switch teams once a is a slot available.
- Halloween mood! Autumn-themed sprites, darker sky, gregs spawning - same as previous year, with some enhancements. Sprites by Skemonde
- Killstreaks will show up in the chat and give you extra coins.
- Shieldable catapult rocks
- Shieldbash fixes: it should now work more consistently and should scale with velocity.
- Minor ballista rework: explosive bomb bolts are no longer a gold upgrade. Explosive bomb bolts are now a seperate material. Tap F while being in ballista to swap bolt type.
- Shielding water arrows is more consistent (shielding them now always reduces the stun time), fire arrows don't bounce off shields
- Corpses will be much harder to pickup accidentally
- Crates now collidable again (you can stand on them)
- Ballistas cost 50 gold now and drop it on death
- Boat shop no longer costs gold
- Coloured minimap (shows block colours!)
- Visual change: arrows stay stuck in players
- New bind: shift+num key to switch bomb/arrow type
- New bind: shift+space to rotate blocks in the opposite direction
- Lots of fixes and QOL changes
- Mapcycle update
- Accolade and patreon head updates

Big thanks to everyone who contributed to this update.
Big thanks to Furai who fixed the build system, which will let us go back to doing somewhat regular updates for the game.
Moreover, we're planning another patch in a couple weeks, which will be quite more significant balance-wise. At the moment we are considering some changes:
- some balance changes from Bunnie's CTF Rebuild project, such as faster building during build time, more coin gain from combat, faster hitting on player-built blocks, sawjump removal. If you're interested, you can read more here: https://rentry.co/rebuild-prs (not everything may be added)
- raycasted slashes (Doors will no longer makes builders immortal at certain angles - this led to the frustation of many knight players)
- QOL changes for high ping players
- 360 degree trampoline rotation
- more accolade updates
