IMPORTANT: How to try the beta branch?

• In your game library right click on "Rogue Empire -> Properties"
• In properties select the "Betas" tab
• On the drop down select the version: beta - Beta testing for next release

Changes:

• Action buttons should scale properly on very wide screens.
• Fixed issue with timed mode not working on saved games.
• Fixed several issues with the inventory that appeared with the last patch.
• Water splash no longer moves an entity or character pinned down by an effect.

• Melee hit chance now uses a new formula similar to the one for ranged (but using STR as a stat instead of AGL). In addition both formulas are influenced by the difference in levels of the enemy you are attacking by a very small amount. While this will make your character miss a lot less now, take into consideration monsters will miss less too ;) In both ranged and melee, to hit modifiers have been improved in value now representing roughly 15 points of their main stat toward miss reduction. I hope this avoids some of the issues play ability with missing a lot.
• Dodge chance was reduced slightly for characters and enemies alike.
• Several one handed weapons of mithril tier and above have had their base damage revised to make them feel a better upgrade and reduce its damage deviation.
• Legendary [spoiler]Arobase's Vampiric Broadsword[/spoiler] effect improved.
• Warrior organ targeting and organ protection talent effects where improved from 30% to 50%.
• XP item modifiers where increased (nearly doubled) to tempt their usage.

• Added a UI volume slider to the setting menu.
• Racial buffs should now apply after item gearing.
• Added french to the AvailableCultures file for language modding.
• If you are an assassin looking on an enemy shows the exact chance to stealth for that enemy and distance.
