Axom: Conquest Patch 1.0.2.1

Patch 1.0.2.1

LEADERBOARD has been reset due to some exploit fixes and scaling changes. Grab the top spot quick!

Gameplay

• A new structure affix, Generated, has been added. Generated Structures sell for 0 Refined-Metal. This is only for certain upgrades that can be exploited for infinite Refined-Metal. This affix is separate from Structure Mods. Structures can still have only one Structure Mod.

• All Barrels now count as Generated Structures. (They already sold for 0 anyway, so no change really)

• Enemy scaling is now slightly more aggressive after wave 30 during Endless Mode.

• Chitin Guard collision is now smaller (This should stop it getting stuck as often)

Structures

• MX9-Ripsaw - Damage radius increased by +20%

• DX48-Razor-Hound (Minion Tower) - The combat drone will now move towards its initial target regardless of range.

Upgrades

• New Upgrade - Heat Converter - Each Ion-Cannon shot increases its Damage by 8%. The bonus resets at the end of the Wave. Has a new achievement to unlock it.

• Blood Bullets - Leech and Damage bonus is now active from a 2 tile distance, up from 1.

• Lucky Dice - Random upgrade can no longer target Barrels.

Visual

• Increased the maximum number of particles that can be present at once (I went overboard last patch)

• Overcharged Structure mod is now slightly less bright.

• Biome and wind particles have been toned down slightly.

User Interface

• Updated a few more tooltips with colour coded numbers

Optimisation

• Upgrade icons now load asynchronously to avoid hitching when needed.

• End of wave is now less likely to cause a game hitch.

• Building a Structure is now less likely to cause hitches.

• Upgrade selection screen no longer creates a new instance each time it appears. (Should use less memory)

• A few other small optimisations.

Bug Fixes

• Flaming Barrel - Flame ring visual will now appear correctly on all valid Towers.

• Overworked Robot - Now correctly limits nexus upgrade choices to 1.

• Blood Bullets - Damage boost and leech are now more consistent.

• Biomes now appear correctly in the codex.

• Centurite increase preview when exchanging in the Trader now shows correctly.
