2.36.0

Release: (TBA)

Features

  • Added angle snapping to commander building placement. This shares a key bind with multi-unit selection. (Default key is shift.)
  • Added firing sounds to MG turrets.

Bug fixes

  • Applied a potential fix for player muting via the scoreboard. When the server reaches enough players, player muting would stop working as intended.
  • Fixed squad heal not removing Bio damage over time effect properly.
  • Changed building smoke to always emit fire when the building is destroyed, instead of sometimes showing unbuilt/sabotage smoke.
  • Neutral tank turning now rotates around the tank's local axis instead of world space. This was causing strange behaviour when driving up/down slopes.
    • Neutral turn is no longer unconstrained in applying angular velocity. Prior to this version, angular velocity was set directly; instead of being applied as an angular force impacting the angular velocity. This will mean that tanks are no longer able to rotate beyond the capability of the force being applied.
  • Fixed minor issues with vehicle detection overlays. (Don't show for your own vehicle and for vehicle corpses.)
  • Fixed the emp_infantry_restrict team filters being inverted.
  • 3x Crashes have been fixed.
  • Fixed some minor issues in the vehicle hud. For example, no longer displaying the armor detection overlay for your own vehicle or dead vehicles.
  • Map info script parsing system has been refactored. This comes with a few benefits, one is that there is now a default minimap if no file is present. Another is that map info can be reloaded using the mapinfo_flushscript command. (client-side)

Other Changes

  • Added prop_sphere to the FGD and updated code to allow a radius to be set.
  • Added various team colored developer textures for use when designing maps. (materials/dev directory)
  • Changed all turret/camera/radar models to use metal surface property instead of default.
