Updates

1.3.1
• Fixed Ripdozer not bleeding enemies.
• SFX now in the proper place (is now properly adjustable in the vanilla options).
• Fixed FPS drop in character loadout.

Known bug: Any hull/turret selected after Churchill creates a 'broken save,' which results in the game not properly saving achievements/unlocks after close.

1.3.0 - Gearpatch


Tank no longer deprecated, hooray!

• Added a secondary skill.
• Added 4 sets of new bodies (turrets included).

• Now lists blast radius's on Specials. Fixed descriptions for utilities and other items.
• Celestial Cannon achievement fixed?
• Fixed the frontal machine gun from floating for some turrets.

There are planned reworks for the following: Mini-Mines, Barrelling, and Shotgun.
Body locks may be in the future (regarding any of the new additions + future additions), as the achievement code is a bit finnicky with the bodies.

1.2.3
• Another oops where Tiger I body perk stacked on each respawn/stage. Checked for other body perks too.

1.2.2
• Massive oops fix where body selections weren't separating from their turret (Ex. Maus body with stag turret equated to a full Maus with 350 HP).

1.2.1
• Fixed bug where other survivors possessed the tank items.

• APC body lunar now +20 fuel (from +10).
• King Mine detection radius slightly smaller to catch more enemies.
• Barreling can now hold to fire.

• T-34-85 body now has 90 health (from 100), and armor to 15 (from 10).
• Some scepters better adjusted (mainly Artillery's scepter).

• Howitzer + Artillery bullet lifetime increased to literal infinity.
• Physics glitches (wall/ground freeze) way less prominent, however may still be a slight problem.
• Fixed Shotgun being too loud in multiplayer, and prevented client-side sound spam.
• Fixed Goobo Jr/Dopplegangers from being immortal when possessing Self-Destruct- they no longer will have Dio's.
• Fixed some abilities from resetting 2nd+ cooldowns.
• Fixed some ability descriptions for better understanding.
• Some code organized/cleaned for better optimizations and performances.
• Tank stats now correctly update on start of run (instead of when out of container).

• StandaloneAncientSceptor is now a dependency (but not required).
