Upcoming 1.122 Update:

The following is the upcoming changes to the game when Pt.2 of the UI update releases. Fixing Deathmatch is taking longer than expected.

Below are the changes:

Visual and Audio Changes

• Further UI changes made: Changes to Game Results and Game Selections
• Edited the victory music
• Reduced the size of Airships by approx 75%

Weapon Changes:

Assault:

• Changed the Magazine size from 25 to 30
• Increased rate of fire by approx 47% (1 round per 0.19 seconds to 0.1 seconds)
• Increased damage by approx. 12% (35 to 38)

Scout:

• Increased rate of fire by approx. 38% (3.39 to 2 seconds approx.)
• Reduced spread of bullets by roughly 5%

Medic

• Reduced rate of fire by approx. 10% (0.9 seconds to 1 second)
• Increased damage from 54 to 56

Sub-weapon changes:

Grenades:

• Reduced min. and max. damage from 45 and 70, to 15 and 45 respectively
• No longer kills enemies from across the map when the grenade explodes on the edge of the screen.

Poison Gas:

• Reduced min. and max. damage from 45 and 70, to 15 and 45 respectively
• No longer kills enemies from across the map when the Poison Gas explodes on the edge of the screen.

MedBubble:

• Reduced the rate of healing from 1 HP per 0.5 seconds to 1 HP per 1 second
• The MedBubble now deflects enemy bullets.
• The MedBubble now has HP. Should it take too much damage, it will disappear, and rendered unusable until you respawn as the Medic class.

Bug Fixes:

• Fixed a bug where the message when the player scores a kill would be obstructed under the roofing of buildings
• Fixed Deathmatch rounds not ending when either team had achieved the required elimination count.
• Fixed a bug where the objectives would appear on top of buildings. Parts of the objectives will now be hidden if they are partly inside buildings.
• Fixed a bug where the border around the screen would disappear when the victory/defeat message would appear on screen
• Fixed a bug where respawning while the defeat/victory message would cause the UI to reappear, and overlap with the results screen.

This update is targeted for balancing classes, fixing game breaking bugs, making quality-of-life, visual, and UI changes.

Assault has received a lot of buffs due to the weapon being mildly undertuned to what it could be. Assault is a very versatile class, and so its statistics should be adjusted to further allow it to be versatile.

Medic and Scout have received balancing to make both of the weapons more usable.

Grenades and Poison Gas both had bugs where they could kill enemies from across the map when it exploded on the edge of the screen. Furthermore, they would kill enemies almost instantly. This would make every game in the player’s favor, primarily in Deathmatch. This bug has been fixed, and both sub-weapons have received adjustments to reduce it’s mass-elimination potential.

MedBubble’s role is to heal the player and their teammates. But it does not provide much use beside that. Now, it is able to reflect bullets, but its healing potential is reduced as a result.

The bug fixes are to fix visual and some groundbreaking bugs with intent to polish the game.

This update will be released sometime this week to next week. The next update will be focused on adding weather mechanics, a new map, and bug fixes.

The Update is out, however, Deathmach is unfixable, and thus removed. Will be replaced by a new gamemode in the future.

Game modes

• Added the option to play in 50v50 Battles

@catty Alright. Thx for letting me know. Sorry if its causing any stress.

@catty Yes. That’s what I’m asking about. However, if I even reply to a post (For example, this message), I have to wait a whole hour before editing the main post.

The game which I have the most progress on: The Teahouse, is about 15% done. I am looking for ppl to playtest, help code, and polish the game. Details will be given for those who are interested, and a forum post will be released giving a detailed overview of the game before the demo release.

So, I have come up with some code which (I think) would aim/target any clone of your choice, albeit not targeting the closest clone.

So, each clone that you want your AI (or Sprite) to target, must have their x and y coordinates recorded in separate lists (Done for individual x and y variables for more versatility) Then, when instructed, (for example a tank fighting other tanks), it would pick a random list number. This number will be referred to as the “Clone Target Variable” This number will be used to pick the x and y for the AI to point at. (For example, if the CTV is 5, then it would pick row 5 of both lists, and it would be plugged in accordingly).

Then, this tank, would then fire at the said coordinates that was plugged in from the listing, then repeats when it gets ready to fire again.

I might use this for the near future for the bots in WOC, but this is being put to testing for the Airships to give them some type of use beyond just hiding bots underneath it.

@info-creaticode No Problem. Just need to clear up space, that’s all. Still want to keep at least 1 or 2 older versions to find sources for bugs that didn’t exist before.

So, after some thinking, I will be suspending updates to WOC.

I have been thinking for a long time to make (what I think is) much needed upgrades and polishing to the game’s AI. I feel like the player is the main contributor to any match. In my eyes, this makes the ai useless other than just cannon fodder. So, I will be pushing back the weather update to work on the AI upgrades.

While I have a very basic targeting system, it’s not really enough. Why? The system does not target the closest enemy to a bot. It just picks a random one on the map. This means that it is likely to attack something off screen, and it will do nothing.

So, I won’t update the game till I can get this targeting system mastered. This will not be the only addition to this update. What else will I be adding?

• 3 new weapon classes, and 3 new subs
• 2 new maps
• 1 new gamemode to replace Deathmatch
• A slew of bug fixes
• Better UI enhancements
• Voicelines for both teams
• Removing unused blocks for better performance and loading times.
• Less time between moving and firing for the AI.
  I might, bring about a patch or two. Dunno yet.

When this update releases, the game version will be updated to 2.0

@catty Could I just only edit the actual post for updates, or does this solely have to be on the note section of the game? (Just clarifying. I’m about to release an update soon.)

@011830-0a42ef84 Its how your person moves based on the mouse and key movement. It’s funky.

@011830-0a42ef84 Yeah, rotation wise.

@011830-0a42ef84 K, well, I don’t really know then.

@011830-0a42ef84 Add an option where your mouse doesn’t really determine the movement of your player.

Update 3.5 - A Very Special Specialty Update Pt.1 Patch Notes

Update type - Content Update
Release Date - When finished

What’s new:

AI

• Implemented the same player count system from the previous update to the Freinds AI.
  • This is to fix an issue where Realistc Battle matches would not end if the player and his entire team was eliminated.

Bug fixes

• Fixed a bug where Interceptors would not move at their correct speed while they were not moving to position themselves before firing. They would move at the speed of their teammates rather than being faster than them, and vice versa with non-interceptor classes as well.

Gamemdes

Realistic Battles

• The border around the screen is now slightly transparent so while spectating, the player is able to see the locations of all players during a match.

Weapon Classes

• Added a new class: Combat Medic

Ever wanted to be able to heal your teammate, yet can’t contribute much to fighting? Well this class is for you! Paired with a BAR M1911, and that same familiar MedBubble, you can more conveniently place that MedBubble in more places with a more reliable weapon. Furthermore, its paired with the Punchdown special if they come rushing in!

Class Armament:

• BAR M1911 Multipurpose Automatic DMR
• MedBubble Sub-Weapon
• Punchdown Special (Coming soon)

UI

• Changed the text for the Scout Class button in the Class selection screen from Recon to Scout
• Fixed the appearance of Gamemode information when the map is revealed, and added a slight background to fix the conflicting of colors with the text and background.

Maps

• Added a new map: Iberian Castle

General Bug Fixes
*Fixed a bug where Sub-weapons could still be used while not in a match.

The next update will focus on adding specials, and spawn protection mechanisms

@011830-0a42ef84 https://play.creaticode.com/projects/679b952fe83001fc08dae8bb

So, I have finals coming up for my 3rd year of Collage, thus, I am releasing one final update before so.

So, I ask for anyone, anybody, to give some honest thought about my game, and give feedback and/or suggestions for the last update. I will work on it again eventually, but won’t be for a few months to account for finals and family time.

So, what do you have to say? Can’t wait to hear!

@mod-squadacademy-1bc96c56 I would like some nice, laid back Main Menu music for my game, but my collage recently banned audio file downloads, and its been hard to find music lately.

@011830-0a42ef84 I don’t have multiplayer integrated, and I don’t plan on adding it.

Update 2.23 Sudden additions notes and Release!

So, we’re back with another update! Our team forgot to mention these few things when this was at work at our home base:

• 4 additional battle songs have been added
• Reduced the intensity of the red screen when the player is below 30 health by approx. 45%

We are proud to announce a new and improved system for telling if your team is winning or not in Realistic Battles! Even better, by holding the ‘E’ key, you can see which class that any currently alive bot is using. This counter updates for eliminated players. Lastly with this new technology, we can more accurately determine how many enemies are left in a match, but this also means you might have to hunt down that last, sneaky player.

We’ve also improved the Main Menu UI, did some rearranging, and added a background changer to give the Main Menu a more, cleaner, fresher look!

In terms of bug fixes, it was found during the development of the counter system that, if you entered a match after intermission instead of returning to the Main Menu, you could break the game by just pressing the “e” key. This has been fixed. Problems were also found with the gamemode display while the map was loading, not being able to respawn in non-realistic battles, and Sandbags and Medbubbles freezing on screen when the Results screen appeared, given that both is/was deployed when the screen appeared.

Happy fighting!
