Version 0.6.8

Version released on Default & Unstable branches

New Ultimates

• Shooter's Napalm Strike will cause fire to rain down from the sky, greatly damaging mechs and foreground alike!

• Digger's Plasma Beam will make a thin, long hole on the ground, designed to split terrain like nothing else!

• Tank's Dome Shield will create a round barrier wherever it lands, which is only solid during enemy turns!

• Healer's Resist Death will prevent a mech from dying for a few turns, but doesn't it work on itself!

New Mech Colliders

All mechs now have two separate colliders, a Body and a Capsule. The Body is very detailed and meant for projectiles and particles. The Capsule is what will interact with the ground. This greatly improves both hit detection and movement around the map.

Smaller Sky City

This map's huge size was preventing players in some positions from hitting some areas, specially from the lower platforms to the upper ones. This has now been fixed, we hope you like it!

Ambient Sounds

All maps now have background sounds, such as gears turning on the Steampunk Factory.
