[h2]Assist Droid[/h2]

New Assist Droid to help out with tasks when playing solo, or just because you like the little guy!

Every player can enable/disable their own droid at any time. The droid has three modes:

• Upgrade: Mine and use fasteners on the closest Tower
  
• Replenish: Mine and use canisters on the Tower with the least charge
  
• Deposit: Collect coins and deposit in the caches
  

Players each control their own droid by pressing Right Bumper on Gamepad or "T" (for Target) on Keyboard.


[h2]Balance Updates[/h2]

• Arrow tower damage per level updated
  
• Mine cost decreased to 4
  
• Boost now does a small amount of damage in addition to Radius and Recharge Speed increase
  

If you experience any issues please feel free to leave a comment here or on our discord!

Cheers!

Some players have experienced nausea from the camera aiming at the player.

I've added a setting in Visuals > Lock Camera

Which will follow the player at a set distance instead. Hope this helps, but please let me know if there's something else that can be improved.

Cheers!

Experimental LAN Support is now provided

In the settings menu you can change "Relay" connection setting to "LAN"

Both the host and clients will need to set the connection setting.
The join code will be the local host IP Address, which the clients will input.

Host will need to make sure no firewalls are set, and their computer is discoverable on the network.

If you have any issues or have any tips for others, please reply here.

Cheers!

Prevailing feedback was that the game was a bit too slow. I've updated the speed of most gameplay elements.

• Increased enemy speed
  
• Increased tower rate of fire
  
• Increased resource replenishment rate
  
• Increased player movement speed
  

I've tested some, but more feedback on the new speed of things is always welcome.
