Beta 3

Postby SnotlinG » Thu Dec 09, 2010 8:39 am

We have now launched Beta3 as you probably have noticed already :-)
Beta3 includes a bunch of new stuff:

# New graphics
# New border technology for graphics, making using the mapeditor much easier, and also makes the map look smoother
# Reworked combat system
# New Hero leveling system
# Fog of War
# Basic Ruins and Temples
# A lot of fixed bugs from Beta2 :-)

First Beta3 bugs fixed

Postby SnotlinG » Thu Dec 09, 2010 8:41 am

First bugs reported and fixed:

# Bug when taking surrender causing the game to end with next player as the winner.

# Bug when hosting and not choosing a map, causing errors at gamestart etc. It is not possible to not choose a map anymore :-)

# Fixed bug when moving an army to another army, and then grouping and continue the move, the mark on the minimap was not removed.

# Fixed a small annoying bug in the grouping functionality which would cause unexpected behavior when deselecting certain units from a group.

# Fixed a bug at initialize game, when initializing several games at the same time the startinglocations could get a bit confused, resulting in players starting in middle of nowhere without any startingcity. Which then meant they got instantly kicked out of the game :-(

We have added possibility for newcomers to instantly start a testgame against only Neutrals without the need to register. Hopefully this should show some more people how fun this game is :-)

Also added the possibility for registered users to start a practicegame (same as the testgame, but will be saved for 7 days in your account). The practicegame you can find under the Create/Join page. Could be good if you want to mess around a bit :-)

Fixed 2 FOW bugs,

1st one was when moving a unit at the bottom of the map you could sometimes get information about units/cities far away. This is fixed.

2nd one was that sometimes you could get info about close cities/ruins in the FOW if your move-path was passing by them. This is fixed.

Fixed a bug in the mapeditor when placing a startingcity close to any of the mapborders.

Fixed the hero-auto-accept bug.

If you got a hero-offer and pressed cancel, and after this you clicked on an enemy city to get the cityinfo and then pressing the OK button to close the info-screen, you automatically accepted the herooffer. This is now fixed :-)

This bug has been fixed thanks to you guys reporting and helping me tracking it down :-)

Fixed a bug that was introduced by Beta4 table structure changes that caused finished games to not be cleaned out.

Also thanks to KGB fixed the random starting position bug that caused the 5th player to be placed in the middle location. Not a very good starting spot :evil:
