About
This mod is a work in progress!
My experience with the mod creation process is very limited, so expect jank.
Network functionality hasn't been tested much, so multiplayer may not function as intended.
Something weird or unexpected happen? Have some feedback regarding balance, ideas, or general questions? Feel free to contact and tell me!
To Do:
- Add additional skins
- Test networking more thoroughly
- Make Rocket Jumping more stable, as it interacts oddly with slopes and certain map geometry
- Add the 'Speed Down' sound when the Concheror Buff expires
- Make things look more pretty
- Clean up code/implementations
- Tap into the limitless potential of alternate weapons
Known Issues:
- Rocket Jumping can behave somewhat jankily.
- This mostly applies to Rocket Jumping on slopes or off of enemies, and it gives a lot of speed. Be careful, or watch for fall damage!
- Animations are somewhat janky
- Certain animations may be missing in multiplayer. The player should be able to see them, but not others.
- Rocket Projectiles might not line up with their "physical forms" exactly in multiplayer. (i.e., the rocket can look like it hit for no damage, when it actually misses)
- Certain sounds may be missing in multiplayer.

- Deals less knockback to enemies, so they slide around less on the ground.
- Tweaked the blast force from rocket jumping a bit to compensate for the Source movement.
- Lowered the speed of rockets slightly.
- Concheror
- No longer actionable (but it is still mobile)
- Market Gardener
- No longer pops you up when hitting an enemy when airborne.
- Visuals/Sounds
- Fixed bugs around Soldier's model, such as:
- Made Soldier and his weapons less shiny
- Shield/freeze/tar effects being missing
- Soldier being visible when he shouldn't be (e.g. Teleporting, using Strides of Heresy)
- Aligned bubble-effects (like Oddly Shaped Opal and Barriers) to more closely match the model.
- Fixed some overlapping animations.
- Tweaked the volume of some sounds.
- Added a sound when picking Soldier in the menu.

0.2.0

- Decreased the power of the Shotgun slightly (9 x 70% -> 9 x 65%) and lowered Proc Coefficent (is now .5 per bullet)
- Decreased the power of the Market Gardener (8000% -> 6000%) (I wanted to reign it in a bit, but still keep it satisfying to use)
- Made the Concheror mobile/actionable. (note: actionable is something of an unintended side-effect)

- Reorganized and changed rocket jumping implementation to (hopefully) be more client-friendly.
