Dear ThrobaxTD community - after our vacation we are back and can inform you about some cool news:

Improvements

  • Rewrite the savegame-patching code.

  • Rebalance towers and research-descriptor items.

  • Re-tweak the lightning tower since now the chainlightning works again.

  • Refactor keyboard-input code.

  • When disabling particle-effects completely, some of them still have to stay since they are the only indicator for an action, like a poison-plume, the cannon tower shot or the meteorite spell.

  • Create all hero upgrades.

  • Rework hero bullet and use mainly the particle engine for that. It's too slow to hit anything usefully as it is now.

  • Let the hero-shot be adaptive like when we add an additional effect, the impact circle should show that.

  • Add another 'exit' menu-entry to the top of the entries in all research-messageboxes.

  • Rework the time-dilation spells effect.

  • Create all spell upgrades.

Bug fixes

  • The tile-collision when the mouse is clicked didn't trigger any longer. Error in mouse-coordinate to level-coordinate conversion.

  • After casting a lightning bolt the hero was deselected.

  • Chainlightning didn't work any more.

  • The tower-stats were not cumulative over the various levels.

  • Hero descriptor wasn't patched like all other tower-descriptors upon game-start.

  • The saved and distributed hero-descriptor in MP games was the default one, not the one of your actual hero.

  • There is a crash if I cast a lighting-bolt on a monster which then is killed in the same update-iteration before the hero is firing.

  • Sometimes the monsters are declared as flyers and cannot be hit by the towers any longer. Done

  • Memory leak fixed.

  • The towers don't have the proper research items for special-abilities.
