v.96 (beta) patch notes

Features

  • Added security measures to prevent two people from playing with the same account on the same server at the same time. 
  • Fixed a number of backend network stability and security issues. 
  • Building parts now animate with lights turning on/off based on wether the building is producing units or researching tech. 
  • Added sound to the gladiator. 
  • Added sound to the command center for when it powers down (finishes construction).
  • Added stealth technology research for bomber at the tech lab. Stealth bombers are difficult to see and enemy units cannot auto-target them. Instead, stealth units must be manually clicked to attack. When you are being attacked by a stealth unit, a notification appears.  
  • Added 6 eco techs you can research at the command center. Tier 1, 2, 3 ore mining and tier 1, 2, and 3 carbon mining. Each tier increases worker efficiency by 10%. 
  • Added super weapons tech. Super weapons can no longer be built immediately after constructing a tech lab, you must research the super weapons tech first. 

Fixes

  • Observer mode now working again. 
  • Fixed issues with reconnecting when there are AI in the room. 
  • You can no longer join a game room after the game is over. 
  • Changed the text formatting on the "ELO Change" column in match history. 
  • Carbon and ore should no longer get set to "infinity" when you leave the tab and come back.
  • Fixed population randomly showing "NAN." 
  • Removed the message which displays when a unit does not have guns capable on targeting another unit (e.g. bomber targeting aircraft). 
  • Updated a bunch of tooltip descriptions and added info about bonus damage and splash damage. 
  • Ground unit speed in tooltip now reflects the accurate speed.
