Patch Note 0.7.10 - Tuning the AI

Hi everyone,


I'm currently trying to make the game always challenging for every type of player :)

AI
  • MyClub - it's only dynamic difficulty now. The AI will always try to adapt to your level :)
  • AI stronger against float serves
  • AI will use less long spikes


IMPROVEMENTS
  • Team names could be too long to fit in the box (exhibition)
  • Menu confirm before deleting all MyClub saves (to avoid accident xD)


BUGS FIXED
  • MyClub - display all matches of the season for the club and the other divisions



Have a nice day ♥

Patch Note 0.7.9.8 - Clearing the old tasks

Hi everyone,


It seems like a little update but I think you'll feel the difference :D

GAMEPLAY
  • Super spikes won't soft block
  • Long tips are faster
  • Middle tips are slower
  • the block will almost all the time touch the ball if the timing is right
  • Increase variation of the toss (for serves)
  • AI reaction time increased to make it "more human"
  • AI should be a bit stronger against long serves/setter dumps
  • AI won't dive if there is the middle blocker is doing his job
  • AI will be able to see if his hitter can attack above the opponent blocker


IMPROVEMENTS
  • When the player fail a overhand receives/defenses, the animation doesn't stop directly
  • Team names center in match results
  • Pink Black court is really pink (it was red)
  • Change lighting a bit to avoid sunny ball
  • You can press Escap with any device to pause the game
  • When you change a video setting, it applies directly


BUGS FIXED
  • Characteristics for jump were assigned to wrong players sometimes
  • Impact of setter characteristic (DEX) wasn't applied sometimes
  • Press Escap in the settings during a match was doing bad stuff
  • Statistics being negatives



Have a nice day ♥
