Patch 0.8.949 (on patchtest)

I've just uploaded a new patch for the game. We've decided to roll out patches to a test build first before setting them live to prevent introducing accidental bugs.

I've just uploaded a new patch for the game. We've decided to roll out patches to a test build first before setting them live to prevent introducing accidental bugs. We could use some people to help test the current patch. The following enables the 'patchtest' build:

  1. Go to Steam Library

  2. Right click on Critical Annihilation

  3. Click on Properties in the popup menu

  4. Click on the [Beta] tab in the screen that pops up

  5. It'll show a page with a dropdown to select a beta version, select "patchtest" (You can go back at any time by selecting "None" here)

  6. Close the window and it'll start applying the patch

Here are the patch notes:

  • Fixed support units not firing on lower framerates

  • Fixed stats not saving when pressing escape on the character screen

  • Fixed game acting up when trying to enter screenshot mode while restarting the level

  • Fixed continue button being enabled when dead

  • Added controller support, might need to reset controls to default or rebind manually to get them to work. (Menu's still require mouse/keyboard)

  • Changed default AA setting to SMAA

  • Removed medium settings for Precision on the physics settings tab, it was causing massive slowdowns

  • Changed screenshotmode from F12 to F11 so it no longer conflicts with steam

Secondary weapons currently fire at a set distance when using a controller. Looking into different options to see what feels best. If you have any ideas please feel free to share them on the steam forum.
