WARGAMES Fest Update ( 0.1.2 )

Howdy Wastelanders,

The next update ( V0.1.2 ) for Battlefall: State of Conflict has now deployed to the battlefield.

Our game will also be 20% OFF for the duration of this fest ( 28th April - 5th May )

General:

Implemented better pathfinding for all ground units by:

--- Units will now mostly attempt to funnel through smaller gaps to their destination as opposed to finding a longer route.

--- Longer and unblocked routes may be chosen if it's no more than 12 grid spaces longer than the original route.

--- If all else fails, the longer route is preferred.

--- Unit 'nudging' is planned and being worked on for a later update.

________________________________________________

• Various game optimizations. Without being specific, players should notice significant FPS boosts in * combat-heavy scenarios. * Some localization fixes

New content:

Three new Skirmish maps:

• ( 3 ) KVGC Tri-Savanna

• ( 6 ) KVGC Showdown

• ( 8 ) KVGC Heat

________________________________________________

New units:

• New units are in the works for all Factions but WON'T be producible in this update, however a few of them will spawn as enemies in a select number of EFNET mission maps, including:

• SEL Converter - Insta-kills enemy infantry only. Will provide 200 credits for its side whenever it kills a unit.

• SEL MindBlower - Deploys to enable a distinctly visual zone full of strange energy. Any enemy infantry/tanks that step inside this zone will be instantly converted over to the enemy players side.

• SCRAPPER Strika - A large structure on tank wheels that sends airborne Pipers to its target. Very dangerous ( and expensive ) unit.

Balancing:

• Reduced build-time for Warpad ( 2400 ticks down to 1600 ticks ). * Slightly increased weapon range of Wastelanders. * Springer weapon max retargeting count reduced to 5 ( from 8 ) * Increased life-span of Acid-Tank warhead to 300 ticks ( from 150 )

EFNET Mission map changes:

Mission 06:

• Enemy SEL will receive additional backup 3 minutes into the map. ( SEL Mindblowers and SEL Converters )

Mission 07:

Carved access path into area with Patriarch and Scrapper Conyard. * Added periodic spawns of Strika Tanks for enemy player if playing in co-op mode.

Mission 08:

• Added periodic spawns of Strika Tanks for enemy player.
