Brigand: Oaxaca News

Still waiting for help from Steam to get the Community Pack working.

Meanwhile, here are some important AI fixes. Firstly, AI scripts no longer throw grenades if the intended target is in the water (water makes the fuse fizzle). Also, when a faction becomes non-hostile, party members stop attacking.

There was a bug that caused the Survival skill to lower the volume of fall thumps and splashes, instead of the Stealth skill. Fixed now. There are also new temporary short voices for Echo, Yalo, and Mabel in Panama.

Complete list of changes:

SOURCE CODE:
-When a faction becomes non-hostile all party members will now cancel their targets.
-Fixed bug where thump and splash sound volume was affected by the Survival skill instead of Stealth.

SCRIPTS:
-AI scripts will no longer throw grenades if target is in water.
-(PANAMA) Added temp voices to scripts for Yalo, Echo, and Mabel.
-(PANAMA) Changed all keywords for voodoo tome translation minigame in Panama scripts.
-(PANAMA) Changed skeleton resistances to encourage melee in INIT script (-50% melee, 80% bullet).
-(PANAMA) New respawns in Rekindled Tunnels after talking to Ozee in Ch. 4.
-(PANAMA) Updated hooker use script for PANAMA story.

RESOURCES:

-(PANAMA) Added new temp voices for Yalo, Echo, and Mabel.

STORY FILES: (requires starting a new game)
-(PANAMA) Changed skeleton resistances to encourage melee in story file (-50% melee, 80% bullet).
-(PANAMA) Mabel is now 50% resistant to ionize damage and 100% to body damage.
-(PANAMA) Added two hookers to the story for the Lady's Man ability.

The DLC for the community pack is available for download, but it won't do anything yet. I thought I had this Steam script crap down, but apparently I do not. It will be ready soon, and I'll let you know. It will include hi-res character skins and enhanced gun sounds. Hopefully there will be more to come.

Version 6.1 is up. The main fix is that skill checks now account for bonuses, so you can do purple juice to help translate tomes. In Panama, Mindbloom helps you hack, repair boats, etc. (smoking it doubles the effect). I also fixed the "if_meta=full" script boolean, which fixes the passive Meditation ability.

There is also voice acting for Osito, thanks to Kookue Cachoo.

Also, 5 new achievements, tons of bug fixes, and some more baddies/items.

Finally, I changed the ground of Gamboa from grass to sand. Please let me know what you think looks better.

Complete list of updates:

SOURCE CODE:
-Script boolean "if_skill" now accounts for skill bonuses.
-Added new script boolean: "if_skillbase", which tests for base skill (without bonuses).
-Fixed "if_meta=full" boolean, thus fixing the Meditation ability.

SCRIPTS:
-Added more emails to Med Shop Terminal, decreased Software requirement.
-Fixed bug with bloody Osito textures, added voice acting to Osito scripts.
-Changed Steam achievement commands for skills in PlayerChecks script to "if_skillbase".

Finally finished version 6.0. Thanks big time to William Shakesman. Pretty sure there are no more major bugs in Panama like main characters cloning themselves or broken objectives. I still need to balance things and add a few more secrets and features.
