Update 303 Released!

Posted by WasabiOne 4 years ago

Happy Summer Marines! We are ushering in the sunshine with update 303. This is a lighter patch focused on some bug fixes and a couple tweaks and additions to the game. With this update we are introducing a new post-round feedback system, this will help provide us with more details about your games and comparing round data to support future changes.

The last six months has seen a lot of changes and experimentation to the game and we aren’t done yet. We are working on developing plans over the next week to continue to build on the new foundation that we’ve created over these last few months. Be on the lookout for some exciting new opportunities and changes to come.

As always, thank you for being part of our community and your continued support of our team.

Updates the “VS. Bots” tab of the training menu

Commander bots can now generally be replaced by entering the command station

Restored the spawn animation of eggs (broke a long time ago)

The spawn animation of alien structures is less obscuring now by lowering the size of the initial infestation blob

Fixes



Fixed that parasite never timed out if an entity was outside the relevancy distance

Fixed a bug that stopped the scoreboard from showing up after connecting to a server

Fixed an script error which occurred when you used escape at the tundra unpack menu

Fixed that the cancel button of the tundra unpack menu wasn’t functional

Fixed Gorge structures not being destroyed in warmup mode

Fixed various in-game tooltip descriptions (e.g. power surge, contamination and mines)

Fixed a bug that would sometimes cause a research button for a commander to permanently disappear — forcing the commander to either let someone else start the research, or return to ready room to reset it.

Fixed that marine upgrades stayed available after an arms lab has been power surged

Power nodes no longer play the flinch animation and buzzing sound when they are infested but their armor is gone. However, the lighting in the room will continue to flicker to indicate the power node is infested.

Power nodes will now be properly infested if they are rebuilt from death in an infested area.

Cysts will no longer “flash” infestation right before it begins to spread.

Fade stab will now work even after switching to a different weapon mid-stab.

Marines can now immediately shoot upon spawning from infantry portal — they no longer play the rifle deploy animation. IP-biting skulks beware!

Marines will now always look in the proper direction after using a phase gate. Before, having previously used a gorge tunnel would cause the view angles to be different.

Command station will no longer leave behind the login screen after being killed.

Fixed Gorge tunnels and Phase Gates are deactivated during the concede sequence.

Fixed exiting a hive or command station, the commander will now face the direction they were facing when they entered.

Fixed that bots were counted as human players by the concede and commander eject vote

Fixed various script errors caused by the Marine commander bot
