This week we are having a hotfix that is not that hot and definitely not as short as others. We felt like it was better to release all the improvements altogether, resulting in way more information than usual. Anyway, here are the changes:
DOOR REWORK
Doors now can host more than one egg at any given time. To be more precise, single doors can have 3 eggs growing at once while double doors might hold up to 7 eggs. This change is due to a difficulty we had in controlling how threatening the alien waves would be if we had no control over how many doors are facing the player at the moment the wave arrives.
Important to say that, to make that work, we had to change how doors get cleaned as well. Now the players need to hit and destroy every egg growing in a door to make it clean. If only some of the eggs are hit, they will disappear but the door and the missed eggs will remain as they were.
This should make waves less frustrating and more exciting at the same time, becoming easier for those that actively try to deal with them and more dangerous for those that ignore it while it happens. We are eager to get feedbacks from the community about this change =)
General
- Recently cleaned appliances now run a timer before they can become dirt again, preventing doors to become dirt right after the player clean them.
- Fixed issue where using controllers, mouse or keyboard in the main menu would cause the game to loose focus and become unresponsive to certain inputs;
- The mouse cursor is deactivated during gameplay if the player has not used it for more than 5 seconds;
- Fixed issue where players could not start a game after coming back from finished or ongoing match;
- The game no longer fails to disconnect when trying to go offline;
- The game should no longer enter a lobby or start a match without a character showing on the screen;
- Fixed issue where some screens would be opened with no options visually selected;
- The back button now cancels the countdown before going back to the menu;
- Now every local player can cancel the start match countdown;
- Fixed a bug where local players couldnt leave the lobby after a canceled countdown;
- Victory/Defeat screen now accepts any input to go back to the menu;
- Fixed issue where making a lobby private after going offline would prevent the player from making it public again;
- Fixed issue where players would get stuck on the animations of interacting with doors and other appliances even after going away from them.
- The waves of aliens that spawn on doors are 20-30% easier.
