I was recently the target of a social engineering attack via Discord. A friend's account, who had previously been attacked by the same group, was used to ask me to download a game they were working on and send them my feedback. The executable contained malware... Although I cannot verify it, the attackers claim to have extracted the Gladiabots player database. In addition to game-specific data that has no monetary value, the database contains the following info: - the email address of players who played the game on multiple devices => If this is your case, please be extra careful with the emails you receive, as other phishing attempts may arise. - the IP address of most players => Make sure you use up-to-date antivirus, firewall, and anti-malware software. As you know, the game does not use any passwords, so your other game or website accounts should not be impacted. It also does not store any banking data since the in-app purchases are made via Google, Steam or Apple. I would like to apologize for the lack of caution on my part. I will definitely be more careful in the future.

If you liked to customize your AIs in Gladiabots, you should love how you can craft your own space drones in Nimbatus. This game offers so much freedom! I mean look at what you can build:
Not badass enough for you? Look at this:
Like in Gladiabots, you'll have to iterate a lot on your creation. And here too, a sandbox mode will help you come up with the perfect space killing machine. But this time, you'll have to work on your piloting skills too! The game will challenge you to mine planets while surviving huge swarms of pesky enemies and epic bosses:
Wouldn't it be cool if you could also challenge your friends in drone fights or races? Well... you can:
It released today with a nice discount that won't last for ever, so you should get it now: https://store.steampowered.com/app/383840/Nimbatus__The_Space_Drone_Constructor/

NEW SKINS

This update introduces advanced skin customization:

• Scale up or down the textures to fit your needs
• Make those textures more dynamic by making them move along time in any direction
• Increase your colors brightness to shine on the battlefield

Check out the crazy new skins the community already created:


Show off your latest creation during the new intro screen and and rub it to the face of your opponent in their defeat screen!

CUSTOM TOURNAMENTS

Competitive multiplayer makes if hard to make big changes in the game rules and splitting the community between different variants of the game would be bad for every one. The solution to this problem is customizable tournament rules: max AI sizes, max AI count, team size, respawn delay, mission timeout, authorized bot classes, etc. Check out the dedicated wiki page for more details. Here's an example of a no class limit collection tournament that was organized last week.

TEAM SYSTEM

1.4 also introduces a brand new team system. In short, you are automatically assigned to one of the 3 teams (red, green and blue) as soon as you enter the Gold league. Check out the dedicated wiki page for more details. You can see who's is which team on the stats website. If you are active on the discord server and joined a team, ask for your team role in the #role-requests channel and access your team's private chat to meet your teammates, exchange tips and plot against the other teams. Now it's cool to be part of a team but what does it really bring to the game?

TEAM TOURNAMENTS

Introducing team tournaments! The best players from each team fight each other to determine who will represent their team in the finals. We had the first team tournament in February and Red Team was victorious! Here are the replays, some of them are commented by players: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kZ6Bf8H9yIw&list=PLZzZnZP6LGafTOufsXDAyQoXwJcC-pzV0 This tournament was super fun to follow, so I should organize the next one pretty soon... Stay tuned!

MULTIPLE STEAM ACCOUNTS ON A SINGLE PC

It's been requested a lot: it's now possible to have several Steam accounts (owning the game) to play on a single PC. Your profile, progress, AIs and preferences will be kept separated and you won't risk any data loss by switching accounts. Challenge your family! ;)

CHANGELOG

Here's the full changelog from 1.3 to 1.4:

• AI: fixed ally/enemy side filter when the bot spawns on the vertical middle axis (ally = left, enemy = right for player slot 1, reverse for slot 2)
• Account: handle multiple Steam installs on a single PC
• Account: implemented account change
• Multiplayer: added team system
• Multiplayer: fixed UI bugs when cancelling a deployment
• Team setup: added new skin options (bright colors, texture scaling and move)
• Team setup: setups split by game mode by default (you can change it in the settings)

New season

Time for a new season, don't you think?! I must admit it was a bit tricky for me to handle a season transition while working on the release version... So buckle your seatbelt, Dorothy, 'cause season 2 is going bye-bye! Mark your calendars, season 3 will start next Monday, December 9th at 11am CEST. It leaves you the week-end to ramp up the leaderboard and max out your elo score. Why? Because if you were active this season, you'll get a credits reward equal to your global score (all modes combined) at the time of the season reset x your league multiplier. Bronze/Silver/Gold: x1 Platinum/Diamond: x1.5 Master: x2 Grand Master: x3 For instance: if you finish the season in the Diamond league with a global score of 4000 points (1600 Collection + 1300 Domination + 1100 Elimination), you'll win 4000x1.5=6000 credits! Also, please note that your score will be reset with the new season to the default/starting value: 1000 points in each mode (so 3000 points total).

iOS release

And finally, the big news: Gladiabots will launch on the App Store for iPhones and iPads on December 14th! The app will cost ~7$* on that day but you can pre-order it now and get it for ~5$*. Yep, that's a 30% discount! (* prices is regionalized by Apple outside of the USofA) Reminder: the game is crossplatform, which means you can share your AIs and progress between your Steam and iOS installs ;) As always, don't hesitate to ask questions or give me feedback in the comments section below. -------------------------------------------------------------------------

New rules

Lets dive right into it, starting with the bad one. I introduced 2 new important rules in this version. The first one limits the size of the AIs you can use in a multiplayer match to 2000 nodes. It only counts actions and conditions in the set of AIs (and sub-AIs) your bots are linked to. Each AI and sub-AI is only counted once. You can check the size of your AIs from the AI editor:
The second one limits the number of nodes that can be evaluated by each bot on each AI tick to 200 nodes. Once again, it only counts actions and conditions. To help you monitor it, the AI debugger now shows how many nodes were evaluated in previous tick:
Now there are 2 kinds of reaction to this announcement. Either your AIs are nothing like those numbers and your reaction is like:
...then cool, you can skip to the next chapter ;) Or your AIs are pretty huge and youre more like:
...before you rage quit, please let me explain why I did it. There are actually 2 reasons. The first and main one is a game design decision. I wanted for quite some time to add an AI size limit in order to boost players creativity instead of brute force completion. We know how constraints helps our brain to be more creative. It also offers similar chances to newcomers and well established players or at least the challenge seems more feasible ;) The only thing preventing me to do it was the hardcore players telling me it would ruin the immense AIs they've put effort into building for months. The other reason is technical. Whatever the optimization level of the game code (which is already quite high), the game just can't evaluate an infinite number of nodes on each tick for each bot without hitting a CPU limit at some point (being it on Android or PC/Mac/Linux). Reminder: each bot checks its AI 4 times per second (every 250ms). During the latest weeks, I received an increasing number of bad performances reports from players who were matched against ridiculously huge AIs (thousands of nodes deployed, hundreds of nodes evaluated every tick). That's what convinced me that I had to implement these limits.
I know it means losing a lot of nodes for some of you (most likely you included as youre reading this). So I asked the community on discord which part of their AIs was consuming the most nodes. And the answer was "counting using tags" for most of Grandmaster players with using complex AIs. Counting time passed since an action, the number of shot fired, the initial resources on the map, etc. So the good news is this update also includes a big refactoring on the AI system, allowing counters. More about it in the next chapter...

Counters

Bracket yourselves, maths are coming! (got it?) Introducing built-in counting logic! \o/ You now have 5 counters specific to each one of your bot and 5 counters shared by your whole team (a bit like the existing tags). Each counter can be set, incremented or decremented via dedicated actions to/by a custom numerical value or an entity count (using filters like any other action in the game). You can for instance set your first bot counter to the number of resources in short or medium range or increment a team counter every time an enemy bot is fleeing, etc.
You can also have counting conditions using a custom value or a counter as parameter. For instance, you can check if the number of remaining resources is greater than 2 or if one of your counter is equal to 10 or compare the number of allies in short range with one of your team counters, etc.
During a match, all your counters can be seen on your side of the screen (bot counters only appear when you select one of your bots):
I cant wait to see how you will use this new tool! If you used binary counting via tags so far, you can scratch and replace this (most certainly) big part of your AI with the new built-in counters. It should definitely get you to a more reasonable node count. If you need help using counters, I recommend you join the discord server and talk with other players who are already using them on the release candidate versions. They seem to appreciate the changes.

Customization system revamp

Beta 2 skin colors and textures were unlocked by customization slot. Each bot has 4 of those slots. So if you wanted to use the same color or texture on 2 of those slots, you had to unlock it twice. Players feedback suggested that this system was a bit confusing and frustrating. So I decided to rework it and make unlocks independent from the customization slot. Now, once you unlock a texture or a color, you can use it on any customization slot, on any of your bots. The other change in Beta 3 is about the way you pick the colors you unlock. From now on, you'll unlock colors one by one, not by group anymore. This counterbalances the previous change so the unlock points are not spent too fast. As a consequence, I had to reset all the colors and textures you unlocked so far. But don't panic, I also refunded the unlock points you spent for them ;) I also added a new customization pattern on each bot class and a few textures variations, raising the number of possible combinations to a bit more than 8.4 billiards (you can add 15 zeros after the point), which should allow some creativity ;)
New customization options will come in the future. Also I'm not happy at all with the skin setup UI, I'll change that in the future. It's just not the most prioritary branch in my AI right now ^^'

UI scaling

Big screens owners should like this one. You can now tweak the scaling of the game UI in the settings menu. You should find your ideal configuration whether you like your (UI) buttons big or small.

Hey, As you may have noticed, the first update of Gladiabots early access, the "Community Update", is now live and includes some of the features and improvements you requested the most. I'd like to start by thanking the players who help me test the version before the official release. Here are their names:

COMMUNITY UPDATE

I actually covered the update in a stream a few minutes after it went public: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9QXDsSRFyq0 I agree, it's a bit long and boring, so let's have a closer look at the main novelties here... New campaign missions Some of you don't want to risk themselves on the multiplayer, I get that. It means you need more challenge with the campaign. That's why I added 10 new chapters, each containing 6 missions. Believe me, you'll get your share of challenge with them ;)
Campaign leaderboard Challenge is good, competition is better. Introducing the new campaign leaderboard, featuring rankings for each individual mission, each chapter and global ones! > stats.gladiabots.com/campaign NB: you need to replay the missions you completed with the previous version to submit your score.
AI folders Keeping track of your AIs can become tricky when you use a lot of them. A lot of you asked for a way to classify them. A folder system seemed like the best way to do it so I implemented a first version of it in this update. It's based on AI names for now, following the / pattern, and lacks a few QoL features but I thought it was better than nothing. It will be improved in future updates.
New target filters Filtering entities by health and/or shield is a crucial feature of the AI system. So far, you could only check quarters (0-25%, 25-50%, 50-75%, 75-100%). This update adds "empty" and "full" values. Meaning you can now retreat only if your shield is completely depleted, check if a target didn't lose any health, etc.
Customizable filter combinations Most filters are exclusive inside their category. For instance the "target current action" category has the different possible actions which are exclusive (you can't do several actions at once). Now imagine you want to attack an enemy bot only if it's neither attacking me or attacking an ally. Before this update, as the category had a predefined combination logic (OR in most cases), you had to select all the other actions to do it. And no, "not attacking me OR not attacking an ally" doesn't work because it's always true. You can now customize the logic. In our example, you can now select "not attacking me, "not attacking an ally" and set the logic to AND.
Comments Every programmer will tell you that a good code is a commented code... but will fail to show you one :D Anyway, I implemented AI comments! (I'll comment my code later)

SEASON RESET

Now let's talk about the second seasonal multiplayer rankings reset. Please note that it will occur next Monday (September 24th) at 7pm CEST / 10am PDT. So it leaves you a few days (including a full week-end) to improve your ranking and get the highest reward: Season 1 ending rewards Here are the unlock points rewards by league: Bronze score x 100% Silver score x 100% Gold score x 125% Platinum score x 150% Diamond score x 175% Master score x 200% Grandmaster score x 300% So, for instance, if you're in Gold league with a 1200 score, you will get a reward of...
...yep, 1500 unlock points (1200 x 1.25). New league caps The demotion/promotion scores will evolve in season 2 to improve players distribution across leagues: Season 1 Season 2 Demotion Promotion Demotion Promotion Bronze none 1000 > none 1000 Silver 950 1100 > 950 1100 Gold 1050 1250 > 1050 1250 Platinum 1200 1400 > 1200 1450 Diamond 1350 1600 > 1400 1800 Master 1550 1800 > 1750 2100 Grandmaster 1750 none > 2050 none Yep, Grandmaster will be an even bigger achievement to reach :) Scores reset Last but not least, the scores reset rules: Current score New league New score >=2100 Grandmaster 2100 >=1800 Master 1800 >=1450 Diamond 1450 >=1250 Platinum 1250 >=1100 Gold 1100 else Silver 1000 I can't wait to see what the next season will look like!

WHAT'S NEXT?

My plans for the next major update include: - translation (I'll need your help on this one, please signal yourself in the comments if you're willing to participate) - new game modes - mods I hope you enjoyed the ride so far. Let me know if you have remarks or questions in the comments below. Cheers, Sébastien/GFX47
