Title: 0.5.1.2, 0.5.1.3: Hotfixes galore
Post by: RD_Professor on December 06, 2017, 09:21:11 pm
To be frank, these past two patches have been a bit of a mess. Essentially, what I meant to implement in 0.5.1.2 has taken two patches and a lot of hotfixes to actually work. And still, there are some things that are not yet working. But, considering that it's been a week since I pushed out a new patch, even though the patch isn't working quite yet, I'm still going to post patchnotes so you guys have some idea of what is going on.

Right now, the development of cRPG is in a fairly nebulous state. That is, the patches I've been doing recently aren't always working correctly on release, and require some work to finish. So, going forward, instead of releasing patchnotes for the official patches when I manage to fix the patch material (sometimes that's day of, other times over a week later), I'll post a weekly update (probably on Wednesdays) on the devvings of cRPG. This'll include what I plan to do over the next week, what I've finished from the previous week, and what I still need to fix. Of course, I'll still give patchnotes on any major patches I roll out, which I'll do here for 0.5.1.2 and 0.5.1.3.

0.5.1.2
What was attempted:
-Professor: New items added
-Ikarooz: Recoloring of items
-Professor: x5 bonus for defeating tin can wave
-Professor: Tweaks to donkey wave
-Professor: DTV rewards reduced by 3/4 (not the cap)
-Professor: Lowered difficulty of items I meant to lower during level revert patch
-Professor: Fix to respec/exchange active time, strat roster capped at 75
-Professor: Tweaks to DTV bot AI

0.5.1.3
What was attempted:
-Professor: Add equip boxes to old DTV maps, add those maps to rotation
-Professor: Fix to small siege tower
-Professor: Implement 'happy hour' on tick-based gamemodes (x2 xp/gold for a 1 hour period in EU and in NA primetime each day)
-Professor: x5 bonus for defeating tin can wave
-Professor: Fix item textures from 0.5.1.2
-Professor: Fix to distribution of items after siege
-Professor: Give STF characters correct xp, level
-Professor: Fix strat ticks consumption/gain of production points

Issues to fix by next week:
-x5 bonus did not work (should be fixed)
-Small siege tower is not yet rotating to correct angles. This should be fixed over next few hotfixes
-Happy hour has been a pain to implement. Again, this should be fixed after a few hotfixes
-The texture for Heraldic Surcoat over Mail is inexplicably broken. Hopefully Ikarooz or someone else familiar with items can help me figure out why. Sorry, Gristle.
-By all rights, items should be awarded to the winner of sieges in strat, but that is not happening. There is a whole mess of code associated with the result of strat battles, so this will take some time for me to figure out. I'm hoping I can have it fixed by next Wednesday(should be fixed)
-Still need to fix STF characters, but that will take about a minute.

Looking ahead:
-Balancing to ranged (likely that throwing weps will see an increase in weight, lower tier xbows will see nerf to damage)
-More tweaks to DTV AI
-Fix raids in strat(might have been fixed)
-Add in item pictures in shop
-Fix ladders thrown hitting other ladders and breaking
-Other things too, I'll update this list as the week goes on

Item changes:
For those curious about changes to items, apologies in advance. The patches were especially messy in this area. If I can get to it I'll clean it up.

0.5.1.5 is out! Unfortunately, it looks like there are some issues with adding in new items, so the items I planned to put in the patch today aren't out yet. However, progress was made on the issues from last week.

0.5.1.4 & 0.5.1.5
-Professor: x5 bonus for DTV (95% certain that this works)
-Professor: Found issue with Heraldic Surcoat over Mail. Once new items are added in, it will work
-Professor: Items should be correctly distributed after strategus fights
-Professor: Code implemented for Happy Hour. No word on whether this works

Issues to fix
Fix the adding in of new items
Still need to fix siege tower
Check whether Happy Hour works
Apparently population in cities is not increasing after a castle is taken
Rebalancing/tweaks to ranged

Why no new topic? Well, I didn't get really enough done to merit making a new topic.

The mesh names for the finger gauntlets changed in the brf.  You can fix this on your end by changing all references in item_kinds1.txt from leather_gauntlet_newL to leather_gauntlet_new_L if you don't want to wait.

Make sure you backup item_kinds1 first in case the brf gets reverted.

Since we're already talking about the finger gauntlets...they seem off somehow.  It's like the hands are too small in-game.  They don't appear small in the brf and both the steel gauntlets and steel finger gauntlets work just fine in-game so I have no idea what's going on.

Also, the new Weren weapon has been assigned a wrong/non-existing material in the brf.

happens because the EU servers havent been updated for current patch. Will be fixed once they are (Pestdoktor has to do it as he is the one with access)
