Patch 3680 (11th May 2017)

Gameplay

  • New feature: Dead air unit wrecks now bounce off shields. The amount of bounce depends on the unit's momentum and angle of approach. Some of the crash damage is transferred to the shield. Unit wrecks can only bounce once. Doesn't affect Experimentals.
  • Allow units in a transport which is shot down to leave wrecks at the crash site
  • Allow the Novax to build a new Satellite if the old one dies. This can only happen if it is impacted by a Nuke or ctrl-k'ed
  • Introduced code to slightly improve the way Tempest and Atlantis behave, particularly in being able to fire, in shallow waters
  • Enabled fire states on TML and SML structures and units. This allows you to command multiple launchers to fire simultaneously at multiple targets
  • Increased reconnect timeout from 45 to 90 seconds to better allow router reboots
  • HARMS now sinks to a greater depth on completion
  • Assist-Mex-To-Cap is now on by default

Bugs

  • Fixed ACU reclaiming while shooting
  • Fixed ACU building while shooting
  • Fixed Auto-Overcharge stopping working randomly until toggled
  • Fixed Auto-Overcharge firing while building
  • Fixed SML hitboxes so some are no longer immune to T2 PGen explosions
  • Increased Beetle hitbox size and declared new targetbones to stop everything missing it if it strafes
  • Fixed two move-while-building exploits
  • Gave Force damage to several AOE weapons so they now kill trees properly
  • Fixed ambient movement sounds continuing to play for sinking units
  • Fixed air units occasionally granting infinite intel at the crash site
  • Fixed unit restrictions not updating correctly when HQs are transferred between players
  • Fixed ancient bug which didn't deselect factory units properly, leading to accidental pausing of those units
  • Fixed the 'Select Onscreen Land/Air/Navy' hotkey also selecting the factories of that type
  • Fixed the Mex Cap feature somehow allowing storage to be built inside units built via upgrade
  • Fixed bug where the Aeon shields didn't visually rotate properly
  • Fixed adjacency visual effect being placed on the water surface when dealing with underwater mexes or hydros
  • Fixed ships sometimes sinking through land
  • Attempted a safety check to try and fix Aeon T2 shields getting the shield up despite having been destroyed in construction

  • Fixed autobalance functions crashing when used with uneven team numbers
  • Improved the ping/cpu display column, splitting it into two. The ping column only shows when it matters.
  • Observers are now kicked before checking connection issues when Allow Observers is false. This means they will no longer stall game launch if one or more have a connection issue.
  • Improved performance of Unit Manager, as well as layout, tooltips, and some icons
  • Fixed faction selector panel not updating properly
  • Removed ability for people to spam the lobby chat with the observer button
