Build 5288 Live

Hi all,

Welcome to the penultimate update for Starlight: Defence Command. The last update will go live in conjunction with its version 1.0 release - more on that in a post soon.

For now, the below are the following updates in the new release.

Features

• Assignment 14 has been added. The penultimate mission in the main campaign can now be played, preparing the story for its conclusion.

Updates

• Simulator Map 13 is now live. Defend multiple objects in the new simulator map.

• Some additional flourishes have been added so that it is more obvious when a tower is building or updating.

• I have made some significant improvement to the operation of the Tower and Enemy objects, improving overall performance of the game.

• NPC Towers now operate and look more like their player counterparts. Note: QRS abilities have not and do not affect NPC Towers.

• The recent text size options now affect the transition, load and game over screens. Each has had a slight makeover too.

• Tooltips text size is also affected by the text size options.

• Improvements made to the Message app so that things like line breaks and null space are removed from additional pages, within a message.

• The in-game Objective Panel has had a bit of a rework. It's a little larger and more consistent across levels.

Fixes

• All the in-assignment messages should now replay when you access the option through AIDA.

• Intermittent crash to the Events System resolved.

• Fixed a rounding error on the health bars from the tower panel. They should now update correctly.

• AIDAs popups in the Academy screen now work correctly.
