  • Removed old code

Asteroids ++ 1.1.1 - Beeps and Boops

[h3]Release 1.1.1[/h3]

Recently there has been an increase of the "player count" where the game jumped from the highest 24 player count up to 4000! However this looks like a bot problem. Seems like bots run the game every 2 hours to try to get item drops, usually weekly planets and sell them on the market. This update attempts to fix this issue of bots, the game now has an algorithm which checks if you are a legit player playing. This algorithm is not going to be explained.

[h3]Features/Changes[/h3]
  • Engine updated to from GM 2024.4 to 2024.6, which brings more stability to the core of the game
  • Attempt to "fix" the bot problem
  • Player Count EXP multiplier bonus decreased


I won't ban bots, as it's impossible to ban 4000 individual accounts, let alone make the anticheat try to ban people, which could lead problems in banning legit players, so my goal is to make users get drops but just make it HARDER FOR BOTS to get drops. Enjoy the update

Asteroids ++ 1.1.0a

[h2]Release 1.1.0a[/h2]

[h3]Features/Changes[/h3]
  • Added a limit on rifles, machine guns and shotgun bullet speed on how backwards they can go, since that limit didn't exist. Rockets stay the same
  • Weekly planet now shows hours and minutes left
  • Added "WEEKLY PLANET ITEMS", each week a new planet can be dropped for users and bought for 0.25$, ONLY LIMITED TIME!

    You can get a weekly planet for 0.25$, this one in particular lasts until 8th JULY

  • Added new recruitment names


[h3]Fixes[/h3]
  • Weekly planet showed incorrect time when the next planet is coming
  • Fixed issue where items couldnt be bought with the exact required money
