    Here's a roundup of changes, old to new:
    • Made team unit counters work for "any" number of teams
    • Fixed #271 archers deal massive damage to team catapults
    • Fixed #198 trap door + back wall = free money
    • Fixed #258 lost stone on removing trapbridge on background
    • Fixed #81 Knights attack catapults when they use them
    • Fixed #327 one character nicknames kick everyone from the server
    • Addressed #157 chat box/minimap background colour no longer hardcoded, loaded from image. Sometimes breaks though, need to find a workaround for crappy graphics cards.
    • Fixed #305 game wont start if there's >1 spec but less than minimum players
    • fixed #245 'report bugs' links to bug tracker in game launcher
    • fixed #306 useless autoupdate failure codes.
    • fixed #150 casing error on smoke texture
    • fixed #276 can't slash shielded target sometimes
    • fixed #205 can repair trap bridges with backwall
    • fixed #353 quarters dont heal when there's <0.5hp to heal.

    There's some experimental stuff going on with network smoothing and whatnot to try to reduce the "lag" that people see in-game, its having mixed results. Ideally there'd just be enough servers to go around though, and enough people playing at all times ;)

    Obviously more fixes coming and more testing to be done.

    FIRST !!!111!!!!!!! :OOOODDDDDD :D:D:D

    Also, this unit counter for >2 teams is an epic win. Good job, my padawan.

    Good for you, Ej. Just a friendly, jovial note: if I ever see a '1st' comment again on this forum, I will hunt the perpetrator down and start cutting on them with a rusty spoon. ;) ~fbb


    And why do I even keep this signature? ~Ej

    What I also hate, there are spots where even if you hit player it does not detect hit, like there is no collision, usually happens if someone is in a hole.

    I only just realized why landing on people hurts you now. It seems if you shield down while falling your sprite sits on his shield, properly crushing whoever you land on. That's actually pretty neat. Has that been in for long?

    How does that explain how you are injured? It does explain it for them, but you both get injured either way depending on the height, shielding downward or not, knight or not.
