This is Part 1 of the enemy rework. How many parts will there be? Dunno. Up to feedback on the updates, plus however many enemies I have left to change. The purpose of this rework is to give enemies priority in which they are supposed to be taken down naturally. It's not a full on rework to make enemies super difficult or anything, no. Difficulty options exist for a reason after all. It is just to give them more reactive moves and make them feel a bit smarter, also AOE attacks to keep the player on their feet. (HAHA FEET) Anyway. Changes like these are the most difficult ones because even though I tested through the whole game, side modes, tutorial, etc, etc. There still could be something broken that I didn't notice. If that's the case, please report it to me using any of the contact thingies at the end of this announcement. - General - Enemies are now properly grounded when spawned. - General - Fixed missing tutorial locale. - General - Enemies have been reworked to utilize a base prefab (Except for bosses). That took a while, and replacing them all in each scene was annoying, but it's working... I think. As far as I tested, it all works from start to finish. Anyway, this change allows me to make some enemy related changes easier. - General - Enemies now can catch up to the player if the player is too far away. That is if it's not the heavy enemy type. - General - Enemies now can utilize navmesh in order to avoid obstacles. This activates if the player is too far away and tries to cheese them by making them all walk into the walls. This however only works if the player is also on the navmesh otherwise it uses old navigation. Too bad! - General - First boss fight has a small cinematic adjustment to it. Don't mind it. Code from the new prototype allows me to do those easily, joy of shared source code. - General - Fixed an issue where archers would stop shooting at all unless they are attacked if they are stationary. - General - Fixed minor graphical glitches and LOD models sometimes being invisible. - General - Fixing particles from the updated statue model clipping through floors. - General - Minor graphical changes to some of the levels to give them a tad more detail visually. - General - Minor loading screen timing adjustments. - General - Reoptimized places with remote cameras so they don't cause performance drops. - General - SDK Has also been updated to add the new reworked enemy prefabs. Level updates are not needed. - General - Sniper enemies now shoot from their origin point, meaning if player reflects their projectile, it should shoot back at them properly and kill/damage them as expected. - General - Some of the enemies have been reworked, mainly Siis grunts, Siis Archers, Siis Steeres (Big tanky guys) to be a bit more interesting in a fight. I am looking into reworking other enemies as well, but I am pushing it out gradually as there are some bugs that need to be fixed. - Huntress - Fixed Shotgun's right click not shooting correctly. It shot many bullets, but only one hit. No good. - Shamir - Fixed Sinner gauge and Guard mode's gauge not showing up properly and not updating unless their representative styles were selected. - Kair - Added a dodge up move. Yes, he technically could use his earth magic to go through the stages, but this is a bit more convenient.
