Devlog KAG KAG Build 1712 – Hotfix(es) and Accumulated Changes

Original: http://thd.vg/kag-build-1711-hotfix-and-accumulated-changes

Hey Everyone!

Sorry about the server outages – turns out some of the holiday code was left in an unfinished state and as the day rolled around the servers started trying to load code that wasn’t there. This build fixes that issue as well as including all the accumulated changes since last build.

Overview of changes:

• Ladders crashing/lagging server bug should be fixed, but needs proper testing.
• Mines only ignore shields within the immediate area – so if you’re shielding and a team-mate steps on it, you can survive.
• Trampolines spawned from map can no longer be picked up
• Mine has slightly increased priming time
• Many scripts standardised to use SetDamageToCarrier
• Fixed “clbutt” issue with noswears
• Coins from damage are capped at full health, so the overkill weapons dont give extra money.
• Fixed Name Hover Offset in TDM

Sorry for the haphazard presentation of this build, we weren’t planning on making a release so soon but the crash issue has made it necessary. Thank you for bearing with us through this.

We’ll be checking the build’s stability as much as we can but most of THD is out of the office over the new year period.

Let us know right here in this thread if you continue to have issues and we’ll deal with it as soon as possible.

Have Fun!

Forum Addendum: Steam build is still going out, should be done soon.
Edit: steam build is out, you'll get it as soon as it propagates through valve's network.

 

Always a nice job, good work mate!

 

The fact that the last hotfix actually kept things broken should come as a shock to few who understand the realities of night-before-christmas technology. I'll be working on it till it actually works, but lets just say i'm pretty tired of waiting for the build server at this point.

 

;-; Let's hope it works for Christmas then

 

Another build going out to bump the build number and crop out any of the previously affected servers. Seems to be working after playing both modded and unmodded servers so I'm calling it a night. Hope everyone has a great day tomorrow, whether you're celebrating anything or not!

 

You can't grapple nor shoot as archer when holding a tramp, is it intended?

Edit // huh
and the mine deploy time is rather long, it's not viable to throw it if there's any enemy around, not even from the top of a tower

 

Damnit verra you witchy witch are you the one that made the tabbing out glitch happen on start up?
Now I have to go and make a bug report for the first time in like two years

 

Try playing in default resolution 1024x768, there's been some new resolution code introduced, tested on tons of platforms. It basically does nearest whole upscaling. I suggest the same for anyone who is experiencing crashes, or issues with resolution to try default resolution. On another note if you are experiencing crashes please link your logs here.

 

Something else to note, default controls are TR controls so you will most likely have to open up your options and bind new keys.
