Devlog BUILD 1537 - Quality of Life

Then you shouldn't be getting into a situation where there is a builder able to spikedrop your face.

 

As if it's always that easy.

Pretty sure there's not too many people pissed with the spike nerf. There were way more people pissed with the boulder nerf, though, which is funny.

 

Probably because boulders are more expensive than spikes, harder to use and twice less powerful

 

solution?
NERF SPIKES AGAIN
kek

 

Solution : upgrade a bit the power of the boulder :)
or decrease it's price

 

The new Trap Blocks give me cancer. (Keep falling into my own trap that I have made)

 

The new trap blocks feature is pretty good. Devs should only change the key to active them because "s" it's cancer. Now, in game, you will stop all trap farmer (People who will use your trap to farm kills) You will not always see people who destroy your own trap because while they were killing an enemy, they fall down it. This is my idea about this new feature

 

Are you kidding? The cost is 35 stone vs 30 stone, so boulders are barely more expensive, and at least spike drops took some set-up first. Any archer that knew how to right click could go flying around the map instagibbing multiple people for his 35 stone. Spike drops take a lot of timing and positioning and cost 30 stone each time. Boulders were definitely way more broken than instakill spikes.

 

This is hardly inconvenient. At worst, you sit around waiting for your next resupply while holding your stone. Keep in mind that the boulder is reusable, so someone only has to do this once unless the boulder gets broken.

 

Is there anyone who could test something?
I am trying to create a map with mechanisms but everytime when I save it using /savemap command I can not load it back anymore.. There are some errors in the console. I wonder if it's just me or bug. Could you guys go and build a simple mechanism in sandbox, save the map and then load it to see if it works?
It would be the best if you place mechanisms underground.

 

It's no longer important. I forgot that KAG does not load map and any files added to the game folder while game is running. I can load saved maps after the restart. Sorry and thx.

 

Create empty maps named map1 map2 map3 etc and save your maps over them - Then you can load them on the fly.

 

maybe that could be a use?

 

It was fun because it was different. You can vary how the archer plays at the moment, but it's more like defensive, aggressive type of deal. Having a boulder really changed how you played. The kills aren't cheap because anyone with a brain can deal with someone running for them with a boulder (knight is slow with shield up, and boulder doesn't do much for them really - archer has 2 hearts - builder is slow and once he has gotten rid of the boulder has almost no weapon)

Why would they be a liability? If you pick them up, they become your team and you can now pass through them like you can in TDM.

 

No it rlly wasnt. If someone rushed you with a drill in the tunnel one tap with the boulder and the enemy is dead. IDC either way about the nerfed boulder just telling you how it actually worked builder vs builder
