• Set up several mouse widgets to properly respond to HideUI. Set up HideUI and toggling-to-Operator to cancel out any lazes (ammo call in, engineer, etc.) or builders too
  
• Updated Atlas to also be recruitable from the Motor Pool. And updated its hovertip to reflect that it now has a Guard Tower configuration, too
  
• Implemented some speculative fixes to stop the rare 'power widgets appear even when powered' bug
  
• Fixed some World Buildings that had duplicate devnames (errors like this mess with civilian counts when loading saves).Also boosted the strength of the warning that you get if you save while there are duplicate World Building devnames, so they will be harder to miss
  
• Fixed Chelsey System 'GetPlayerZonesForAssault' erroneously not returning any Score values, which broke Assault orders for Civilian factions in some cases
  
• Added a check to remove some avoidance logic for civilians who are moving to Evac Choppers, to try to relax some civilian traffic jams
  
• Fix added for the target zone in 'evac to other zone' logic sometimes getting 'reset' on load
  
• Small cleanup to the Game Over widget
  
• Engine updated to 5.3.2
  
• Updated the Game Options category to lock out the Sliders from running ValueChanged if Initialized is false (5.3 change caused the ValueChanged to fire off as soon as they initialize, even before the widget as a whole is ready, so new check was needed for 5.3 so settings don't get reset upon opening this category)
  
• Fixed the SecondaryScreenPercentage setting in the Advanced Options (previously wasn't working)
  
• Fixed the custom game settings display erroneously displaying a custom Leviathan Start Day as one more than it is
  
• Fixed up the Leviathan Incubation Rate to be called 'Leviathan Incubation Time' in UI, to be more clear to users
  
• Adjusted the Alcatraz dock to try to reduce clipping issues.Also adjusted Carrier docking rotation speed to be faster when aligned with the docking spline (not perfect but seems to function)
  
• Some fixes to camera 'inside of something' check firing off incorrectly (this seems to have been the primary cause of quick 'camera blips' occurring when zoomed out a decent amount)
  
• Improvements to Helicopter loading to prevent them from 'breaking away' from a Carrier they've landed on, when loading a game
  
• Speculative fix for this crash https://discord.com/channels/469412014427602944/1227531523604090974/1227531523604090974
  
• Removed C++ offsets for spawning DNA meshes, so DNA won't 'float slightly off the ground' anymore
  
• Improved DNA spawn trace logic to reduce cases of 'DNA floating high in the air'
  
• Fixed multi-gate upgrade (from selecting multiple walls) not functioning
  
• Weapon rebalance, fixed improper range and damage fall offs for 80% of infantry weapons need to test the others more. but this is a more reasonable change. snipers will feel more useful for long range
  
• Updated some mortar rotation target logic to account for attach parent rotation, if the mortar has an attach parent (ex: Cerberus Mortar). This fixes Cerberus Mortar barrels seemingly 'facing the wrong way'
  
• Improved some focus logic to skip setting of focus actor if it's the same as the current for the requested priority, or setting the focal point if it's within .5uu of the current focal point for the requested priority (should save performance)
  
• Fixed single-unit non-run move orders causing a 'temporary run state', which also caused them to stop shooting for a second if they were in combat!
  
• Fixed Scientists not having radial vision
  
• Used the updated WeaponSightRange to allow Scientists to see at least 6000uu even when equipped with the Flamethrower (which doesn't have that range)
  
• Updated Flamethrower to have 1800uu range (instead of the miserable 800uu it had)
  
• -Fixed up some Fire Damage logic to be more reliable
  
• Lowered Flamethrower damage (now that it's reliable, it's very powerful)
  
• Also lowered fire effectiveness against regular characterss
  
• Boosted 'max fire stacks' on structures to 20 (from 5). This also means that infected pods can show their full burning effect now
  
• Updated the LCAC's description to not say that it transports vehicles (since that functionality isn't done yet)
  
• Improved LCAC 'make it onto land' logic to smooth out the transition somewhat and reduce 'failure states'
  
• LHA6 'rear door' open/close logic.
  
• LHA6 Visual improvements, to show up to two of the garrisoned LCACs inside the LHA6, instead of hiding them
  
• Speculative crashfix for civilian gate getting landscaped as soon as it gets marked as landscapable due to civilian base main building destruction
  
• Non-hostile civilians no longer block construction
  
• Speculative fix for helicopters 'rotating oddly' when told to land on certain things
  
• More speculative fixes for helicopter 'dump garrison' crash
  
• Fixed an error in Chelsey's stuckwarp logic that would cause her to always return to her spawn pos instead of the nearest stuckpoint, if any stuckpoints exist
  
• LCAC amphibious movement improved: should be less likely to just 'stop' on shore instead of properly continuing to their land move target, after landing
  
• Added Build menu icon for Winters.
  
• Fixed m110 fire animation
  
• Spine thrower defensive structure fire rate lowered
  
• Fixed a police station in TI G7 (Blue Crest Estates) not properly being tied into the civilian pop
  
• Added some improved number-checking for number of civvies to send to evac chopper
  
• Added an additional set of checks for civvies in a holding area that need to 'transit' over to Evac mode, to prevent potential 'holding area hogging' Result: Numerous 'traffic' issues with evacuation have been resolved!
  
• Some speculative fixes to make the Mesh/Move tickrate updating be a bit more accurate based on LOD so animations should look a lot more appealing overall
  
• Fixed an issue with evacuating/managed civilians sometimes loading into a zone without properly registering with the civilian admin
  
• Fixed nav size for Avenger Turret so units are much less likely to get caught on it
  
• Added some fixes for civilian 'transfer between zones' to prevent civvies getting stuck in an 'evac limbo' and refusing to do anything
  
• Presidio Grid 4 landscape and road clean-up + Asset Z axis readjustment
  
• Updated the 'Building was destroyed' notification to also include the name of the zone it belonged to
  
• Fixed the 'evac icon' remaining over a building if you shut down Civvie Intake in a zone (or the Admin building gets destroyed in said zone)
  
• Updated the LHA6 to have an 'overhead icon' like regular units
  
• Fixed an attachment issue with the 'mast' building for the Carrier
  
• Updated interaction widget to support 'longer distance mode distance' for the Carrier's sake (so that the widget won't be constantly showing when you're relatively close to it and don't have it selected)
  
• Updated interaction widget to support a 'simple mode' for the Carrier's sake
  
• Updated interaction widget to have a 'height offset' for the Carrier's sake (so the widget doesn't appear 'in the water' but near the top of the mast)
  
• Infected Walls now give no money on kill. They now only give doc exp.
  
• Fixed an error from the LHA6 interaction widget improvements that broke Garrison widgets for other actors
  
• Fixes for civvies sometimes 'moving between multiple helicopters indecisively' when evacuating
  
• Fixed a major math error with a for loop in 'distance calculations' for multi-evac pad setups (likely cause of a hitch or two)
  
• Removed some extraneous crowd following adjustment when degarrisoning units from holding areas for evac
  
• Updated civvies to prefer closest helipad w/ helicopter when exiting a holding area to evacuate
  
• Updated 'helicopter selection' for civilians to better account for 'already taken seats' (using some of the newer Garrison tech), so civilians will start to spread out to other evac helicopters more quickly and efficiently as the number of seats on landed helicopters get 'claimed' (even if not sat in yet)
  
• Fixed a building in TIG8 (Point Hill) that could release civilians into a completely fenced-in area
  
• HideUI support for construction holograms
  
• Some fixes for LCAC 'moving from land onto water' to properly get the boat spline when exiting land
  
• Renamed the 'Civilian Evac Income' custom difficulty setting to better indicate to the player what it means and does (it's the monetary reward value for every evacuated uninfected civilian!)
  
• Landscape cleanup and asset readjustment for Presidio Grid 6

• Speculative fix for civvie transfer crash
  
• Fix added for grenade throws 'failing' at some angles due to the grenade trace hitting the grenade in the thrower's hand as they aim
  
• Started improving 'right click move to attack target' logic to block sending units to attack something they cannot damage, unless you have at least one unit selected who can damage it. Including a text popup if you right click to attack something with a selection of units who cannot damage it
  
• Move to right clicked attack target' logic improvements. Formations now will move to the target while being reliant upon at least one of the formation member's ability to damage the target: the move will cancel if that person leaves the formation, dies, or otherwise becomes unable to damage the target (i.e. out of ammo, switched to weapon that cannot damage it, etc.) Additionally, in a situation where not all members can damage the target, the members which cannot damage the target don't get threat boosts towards it
  
• Implemented several improvements to certain 'right click attack target' checks to start adding support for vehicles-with-garrisoned-units-that-can-attack (such as the Ajax or Sparrow)
  
• Added some basic support so if you have a group of units selected including vehicles and right-click-to-target that the vehicles will actually move to attack the target (though not in formation yet)
  
• Some more fixes for 'move to right click target'
  
• Improvements to 'formation pathing' towards 'right click attack target', to better handle moving towards structures more accurately
  
• Adjusted collision on a type of house used in G4 to be more accurate (to not block some projectiles due to its simple collision being too large)
  
• Fixed up some visibility issues on the HUD that blocked parts of the message log. Clicking on notifications to jump to them are much easier now!
  
• Improvement added to civilian unit movers to prevent situations where civilian faction units (guards, scavengers, etc.) all 'stack on exact same spot'
  
• Fixed 'City Saviors' faction name typo
  
• Fixed buildings erroneously getting the
• wrong* Zone if near a border, which should fix an issue with Civilian Admin Buildings being 'assigned' to the wrong zone
  
• Fixed units who just spawned failing to hide their unit icon if HideUI was active at spawn time
  
• Implemented a fix for 'selection circles' not correctly responding to HideUI
  
• Keyboard rotation no longer resets camera pitch
  
• Added game option Camera Follow Clipping Allowed. When true, the camera will be allowed to clip into surfaces if you are following a unit (via keybind INSERT)
  
• Speculative fix for crash report from Steam user reported crash. Was crashing when a vehicle was destroyed and units were ungarrsioned(forums)
  
• Speculative fix for rain causing bright flashes in some cases.

• Attack Move order logic improved to keep formations and make smarter movements
  
• Direct Attack order added that allows unit to move into range of a target you right click + follow said target
  
• Additionally, units in formation should run when moving to a right-clicked target if they are far away. If already in range everyone will just shoot and not attempt to form up unless a move order is required
  
• Units no longer manage attack move 'individually' if part of a grouped move command: instead, the Formation Move Handler will do it. On being given an attack move, the Formation Move Handler will let units (who are already in combat) not worry about moving yet, but those who have started moving will try to stay in formation even upon seeing an enemy, only stopping once every member of the team has started fighting
  
• Implemented some fixes to stop some situations where units would 'move too far towards your attack move target' even when enemies are in the way
  
• Fixes added for various garrisoned poses
  
• Made some adjustments to the North Treasure Island Carrier docking area,
  
• Attack Move: slight 'stuttering' when issuing order while at least one member is already in combat should now be gone
  
• Grenade traces now have a proper radius, preventing them from potentially hitting something thin (like a streetlight)
  
• Fixed the 'formation' getting too far ahead should anyone in the formation enter combat
  
• Fixed some units moving in formation potentially entering 'alone attack move' instead of relying on their formation to handle that logic
  
• Fixed SRP construction obeying a turned off 'landscaping' mode, resulting you not being able to build at some SOCS if you've turned off landscaping mode for construction (which may be confusing if you didn't keep track of that)
  
• Implemented some speculative fixes for 'moving to attack right click target' 'failing' for targeting structures: may not work in every scenario, but it works much better than the previous version did for attacking pods
  
• Fixed a loading issue that could cause infected pods to override their health with a really small value
  
• Removed the old Evacuation Shutdown logic, due to evacuated infected units being dumped onto Carrier deck (with ability to attack the mast) now. This should resolve some people getting 'evacuation shutdown' issues with being unable to set helipads to Evacuate mode
  
• Units will now switch back to their primary weapon when reloaded and down to their secondary weapon
  
• Fixed situations where units would have a reload time of 1 second no matter the weapon
  
• Fixed an 'overlapping reload' issue where animation+timer for reload could 'double-reload', which was especially noticeable on the Engineer's SMAW
  
• Set up speculative fixes for reported crash from here https://steamcommunity.com/app/979640/discussions/1/4032473436325246013/
  
• -Set up the ability to shut down Dynamic Civilian Factions from spawning, in Custom Game Settings
  
• Set up the Carrier to properly supply ammo
  
• Fixed up the Selective Call-Ins button using the wrong image when not open
  
• -Fix for Operator 'mouse showing' breaking if you hide then show UI while in Operator mode
  
• Fixed the Missile Turret wrongly using the MG Turret's weapon type
  
• Fixed up snappoints for wall corners being a bit unreliable
  
• Fixed up gates not blocking construction (though open gates still allow you to 'build through' them)
  
• Armed units sprint - Fixed
  
• Tilt added to in combat strafing.
  
• Fix to Heavy Vehicle damage resist type (Cerberus, etc.) having 85% resist to heavy melee (making them almost immune to juggernauts)
  
• Fixed up issue with Rubble'd walls not properly updating navigation
  
• Added speculative safety for Chelsey to try to make sure she is invulnerable if she loaded from a game while in death regen state
  
• Fixed broken Angel island dock navigation.
  
• Fixed Ravens failing to deal damage
  
• Implemented a small fix to make civilians using evac to not use RVO if they fire off one stuck check to improve evacuations.
  
• Adjusted landscaping size for walls+non-walls in the Sandbagbuilder so that 'floating crates' shouldn't occur when setting down buildings around TIG4
  
• Adjustments to UI to prevent 'clicking on' something behind the widget when closing it
  
• Recruitment menu's remember last options now
  
• Clearing tool improved to better account for higher vertical objects
  
• Added some improved collision updating for the rubble mode/landscape-able mode for walls. Used the above to make sure that civilian gates that are 'rubble-ified' can still be cleared by the landscaping tool
  
• Fixed up 'ammoless weapons' (Scanner, Bunker Buster, etc.) displaying 'low/no ammo warnings' on the Unit Group UI
  
• Additionally, fixed up the Weapon UI in the Recruit Popup and Weapon Market to no longer show a damage graph for 'non combat' weapons, via new bNonCombatWeapon setting in Weapon.h
  
• Fixed units sometimes spawning without their secondary weapon if you customize their initial loadout via the Recruit popup (won't fix units who already spawned without secondary weapon, though)
  
• Fixed not being able to swap back and forth between a non-combat weapon and a combat weapon (i.e. Scientist w/ Scanner+Pistol couldn't swap back to Scanner if you switched to the pistol)
  
• Added some 'non-combat weapon auto swapping' logic: If a unit has a non-combat weapon equipped (such as a scientist with an Infection Scanner), they'll automatically swap weapons to their secondary weapon upon entering combat, then swap back upon exiting combat (if not reloading). This gets overridden if you manually swap weapons, however!
  
• Added a small delay between helicopter spawns if you purchase multiple helicopters at the same time (in order to fix a 'helicopter flying too high' issue when ordering a bunch of helicopters at once)
  
• Improved some AI related to 'move to right clicked attack target' to fix some flaws (mimicking some fixes Attack Move already had, primarily!)
  
• Fixed an issue in Vehicle AI which'd stop them from chasing their right-click attack target once they've entered combat
  
• Improvements to vehicle AI for 'move to attack target' logic, to smooth it out further
  
• Set up some buttons (such as weapon selection in the recruit popup) to activate 'on release' instead of 'on mouse down', to prevent 'clicking through' them onto stuff in the world
  
• Added speculative fix to try to stop evac helicopters from getting 'stuck' on the Carrier's mast
  
• Updated Main menu graphics

• Removed winters lost tip
  
• Move orders to 'unreachable' spots (such as clicking on the side of a building or things like that) should now be more forgiving instead of sending characters off on move proxy journeys
  
• Made it easier to highlight the Mast of the LHA6 to check health status
  
• CERC holograms now block other structure placements . To resolve being able to build CERC structures on top of each other
  
• Fixed an bug that resulted in the GameTimeDay never ticking over (resulting in the infected not escalating their forces, building Leviathans, or building Juggernauts)
  
• Also added a fix for saves that didn't have this timer going (Though it won't be completely accurate when repairing saves that 'missed' it)
  
• Cleaned up some old 'transfer units between zones' logic that bypassed the Civilian Intake management logic and directly sent civilians into the Evacuate logic upon their arrival to the target zone
  
• Set up a fix for Engineers going to the 'first set down construction object' if you tell them to build multiple things, give them a move order away, then resume the construction order and set down another object to build afterwards

• Added some 'path checking' logic for the follow actor for units on the LHA6 deck, so that they will be less delayed in starting to move
  
• Civilians evacuating from a zone will now have a higher chance of being infected based on the level of infection in the zone they are coming from.
  
• Set up logic so infected civilians will 'swarm onto the Carrier' if evacuated onto it
  
• Updated units who die on the carrier to 'attach' to it, so their bodies won't 'float behind' it if performing death anims
  
• Set up AI 'LOS' and shooting traces to no longer ignore allied boats (so Carrier Turrets can no longer shoot through the deck, and units on-deck on the Carrier cannot 'shoot through' it to targets on-shore)
  
• Set up the Carrier to be destroyable, if infected destroy its mast. Mast can be targeted by infected: it has a good amount of health, though
  
• Winter is no longer a game-over condition
  
• Fixed up the Engineers so they can properly repair the Carrier's mast if it takes damage
  
• Fixed an issue where, when a unit unfreezes movement on the carrier, their movement would become confused (due to their proxy character also unfreezing movement and thus making their
• own* proxy character, resulting in proxy-ception confusion!)
  
• Updated Mine 'overlap detection' logic to be more up-to-date:
  
• Overlapped enemies who die (due to being shot, other explosives, etc.) will no longer be considered, which can save some mines from prematurely firing off. Similarly, overlapped units who convert will be re-checked for validity (so if somehow they become an ally, for example, we'll enable the 'nearby ally' safety! Futureproofing)
  
• Fixed Mines sometimes having units run the wrong way in order to construct them
  
• Updated Mines to have a slightly shorter fuse (and a safety to try to prevent them 'disabling' their fuse after already having jumped, though it ain't perfect)
  
• Set up Winter 're-purchase' logic to properly work if you repurchase before her corpse has faded
  
• Added more safeties for Carrier 'dump units from elevator onto dock' logic to try to stop units from remaining 'attached' to the Carrier
  
• Added 'save blocking' logic to when Carrier is destroyed, so you cannot save after the Carrier has already 'died' (but before the game over popup.. pops up)
  
• Speed changes to standard infected
  
• Added new Animation Combat state system for ground units
  
• Spread decreased for 50 cal turrets (Mutt)
  
• Fixed some initialization issues with the Recruit Popup to resolve weapon changes not affecting unit price
  
• Added a warning (w/ 5 minute cooldown) to Zones to tell the player that there's no Civilian Holding Areas if they're trying to evacuate and have built none yet
  
• Lowered the warning timer from previous commit to 2 minute cooldown (From 5 minute), and updated its pinged location to be the Admin Building in the zone
  
• Updated civilian faction walls to have a 'taller navblock underneath them', so navigation won't sometimes build under raised sections of wall (which in some cases can cause unit pathing to become confuse)
  
• Updated automatic Door 'unit detection' logic to better account for civilians (this helps with faction civilian bases which might block the path)
  
• Adjusted civilian faction base walls to prefer 'being partially submerged in the ground' rather than potentially being too high, when constructed (won't fix walls that spawned too high already, in loaded saves, though)
  
• Adjusted the Move Civilian Faction Base Around tool to be more robust and reliable
  
• Added additional check to Boat 'reverse logic' to prevent them from 'reversing ad infinitum' should they reverse far enough while between two objects that they end up over land
  
• Fixed up the recruitment building (on the Carrier) being directly clickable (clicking on it now redirects to just selecting the Carrier instead)
  
• Fixed the Carrier recruitment building potentially displaying a 'brown circle' when you have the Carrier shop open
  
• Updated 'freeze movement' on Characters to attach to/detach from their Proxy Movement Base (based on whether movement is freezing or not), so units doing any type of 'freezing' while on the Carrier (such as while repairing the Carrier's mast, throwing a grenade, etc.) will no longer get 'left behind in the air' if the Carrier is moving.
  
• Removed the unique implementation of attachment that Engineers were doing for mast-repair, since the above fix is more powerful and covers more cases
