2.31.1 (Hotfix)

Release: (2021/03/20)

Features

  • Player names and revive icons now follow ragdolls correctly rather than staying at the death location.
  • Changed the revive icon to something simpler that is able to be re-colored in code and faded as to not block too much space on screen.
    • Revive icon is now red for team mates and yellow for squad mates.
    • Revive icon now fades out when close to the crosshair and if the player is too far away. (3000 units)
  • Tweaked player name fade distance and position on screen in an effort to make them less likely to block your view.
  • Player health colors are now drawn Red->Orange->Yellow->Green, rather than a linear transition of Red->Green.
  • Tweaked position of ammo/health request icons along with the squad member icon.

Bug fixes

  • Fixed an issue causing spotting/targeting to be unreliable, this was due to incorrect parameters on the collision traces.
  • Fixed bad parameters on prone collision checks causing team mates to be able to block a prone attempt.
  • Bullets no longer collide with projectiles, this should fix issues where tanks would shoot their own shells/missiles. (Although this affects all bullets)
