Autumn Sale Drivers/Pilots Now live & New Weapons - 0.7.129.15

[h3]Well its that time again the Autumn Sale![/h3]


[h3]Windows 7 Support[/h3]

Windows 7 Support will be ending soon when we update to 4.27 of the Engine Build. We will archive the last stable build for windows 7 for a year after the official update. The windows 7 build will not receive updates/and we will give very basic support

https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/windows-7-support-ended-on-january-14-2020-b75d4580-2cc7-895a-2c9c-1466d9a53962

So if your on Windows 7 we highly recommend updating your OS in the future as our engine provider Epic Games has also started to remove dependencies and other runtimes that are needed for the game to run properly.


https://docs.unrealengine.com/4.27/en-US/WhatsNew/Builds/ReleaseNotes/4_27/

Old save files will work with this new build

[h3]Change list[/h3]
  • More building collision adjustments and pathing adjustments around West Treasure Island.
  • New Walk Animations added for CERC Units
  • M16 switched to be used for Drivers
  • M9 given to pilot unit
  • Garrisoning of units into vehicles improved: Saving/loading should be more accurate now, with units properly remembering which seat they were in (for visible seats). The seats themselves will track who is in them (rather than relying on a linear array to keep track)
  • Updated degarrisoning logic to default to not ejecting the pilot
  • Updated degarrisoning selection widget to not select the pilot by default (and to prevent selecting him if fast-roping)
  • Added logic to make Pilots/Drivers go to their respective seat when garrisoning, if that seat is open
  • Added logic to make a vehicle spawn its Pilot/Driver by default, if defined
  • Added logic to make vehicles turn off their engine and stop accepting movement commands if they have no pilot/driver
  • Updated the Charon's garrison capacity to reflect the additional 'seat' taken up by the Pilot
  • Added Pilot logic to the Merlin, and updated its capacity to reflect the Pilot
  • Added Drivers to Peregrine and Springbok (w/ appropriate sockets, etc.)
  • Cerc sprints reorganized. added 4 blendspaces for cerc movement.
  • Gave the cerc medic and engineer the m16 as base starting weapon.
  • AX53 added for the assault. adjust damage for m16 (nerf) the scar(buff) & m4(buff). ax53 is weaker than the scar but better range dmg compared to the m4, better than the m16 in damage.
  • Added Drivers to the Atlas variants
  • Updated some logic to ensure cursor would properly track Ammo Runner only seats and not say you can garrison someone into the Atlas if the only missing units are Runners (not yet restricted to say 'driver only' yet, though)
  • Fixed some issues with some Atlases to resolve Driver conflicts
  • Fixed the Transport Atlas not properly running some regular logic related to Garrison UI
  • For vehicles that had a Population cost of greater than 1, lowered their population cost by 1 to account for the fact that they come with a Driver/Pilot (who also counts as pop)
  • Updated the Capture Truck to cost 1 pop (thus 2, counting its driver) to avoid being able to spam Capture Trucks (then killing their pilots) to fill the map up
  • Updated the Recruit Popup to account for the number of Pilots/Drivers a vehicle requires when listing its population cost (to prevent over-recruiting on the bulk recruit slider, etc.)
  • Fixed units not properly clearing special animations when exiting a pilot seat (which caused issues if they then sat in a gun-enabled passenger seat on another vehicle)
  • Fixed Driver/Pilot units in passenger seats 'pretending' they're the Driver/Pilot of the current vehicle when attempting to degarrison them from another vehicle via the degarrison selection widget
  • 1P operator audio volume fixes
  • Fixed up the Garrison display widget (over vehicles when they're selected) to no longer display their driver or any 'special-unit' seats (such as those used by ammo runners)
  • Added 'NEEDS DRIVER/PILOT' text over a Vehicle, when it's selected, if it needs one
  • Fixed the Sparrow's carrying capacity
    NOTE: Strange bug with the Driver/Pilot of a vehicle sometimes having some 'visibility lines' showing on them erroneously if they leave their vehicle. Not tracked down yet, though spent some time trying to fix.
  • Fixed pilots improperly acting as 'walls' for the 'see my own units through walls' functionality, when degarrisoned due to vehicle destruction
  • And added a safety to make their guns also not do this
  • Added the Driver and Pilot to the list of units recruitable at the Barracks and adjusted their prices a bit
  • Autumn splash
  • Infection growth system has expanded on Open world V2 to use more of the world
  • Fixed operator weapon going invisible when you switch weapons sometimes



More Operators adjustments will be forth coming as we work to polish it amongst the RTS aspects to get back on civilian management. We expect to wrap up polish and be back on civilian management in the next 2 weeks

Please note the following going forward (Restart your game/steam to get the update if needed

Cepheus Protocol Anthology


We will be launching a new weekly series that will see several chapters added every Friday after release and will cover the chapters of the Novelization with 5 chapters added to expand upon the story and give more value to those itching for more lore/story information. It will delve into and show more about a secret new faction that will become the Anti-CERC in the Cepheus Protocol universe.

[h3]Change list[/h3]
    Fixed up Grenade damage-dealing logic after Operator revamp: No longer zeroes out damage against most targets
    No longer overrides non-Operator grenades to be limited to a low max speed (prevented grenade launcher from working correctly)
    No longer crashes when Grenade Launcher is being used
    No longer crashes from White Phosphorus use
    If the grenade has friendly fire disabled, it now will respect that instead of still hitting allies
    Prevented all grenades from having a hard-coded explosion radius - now the inner, outer, and falloff is customizable per-grenade
    Removed the old civilian registry widget (from way long ago)
    Hooked up the new 'Degarrison Selection Widget':
    When you have only a single garrisonable vehicle selected and issue a 'degarrison' command, a list will pop up to the left of the Command Window to let you select who to keep and who to remove. Pressing 'degarrison' again with the menu open will confirm the settings.
    By default, it will have all units selected, so if you double-tap degarrison it'll just dump them like before.
    The first click will deselect all units except the one you clicked on - further clicks will just toggle.
    The list won't appear if you have more than one garrisonable vehicle selected.
    If you do this to a helicopter, you have to click into the world like before OR tap the button again while your mouse is in a good position to fast-rope, though you can click on the list widget to toggle entries too
    Quick fix to previous commit to fix bug where an empty degarrison list (if you made it empty for some reason) would just cancel the command



    More Operators adjustments will be forth coming as we work to polish it amongst the RTS aspects to get back on civilian management. We expect to wrap up polish and be back on civilian management in the next 2 weeks

    Open World V2 is now being beta tested try it out by starting a new game




    UI Changes W.I.P's

    Old save files will work with this new build

    [h3]Change list[/h3]
    • Various collision improvements based on user feedback
    • Fixed LMG and Minigun performance drop when firing.
    • Committed a fix for potential material swapping on the building pods
    • Updated MUTT model
    • Partial fix (needs more, along w/ dynamic nav and 'unit scooting' for upgrades) for Command Tent Main collision
    • Scorpion Evo added for the Operator
    • Updated Parachute and Backpack Textures
    • Updated units of different teams to be able to land on one another, and not get stuck or bounce off instead
    • Extra nav now spawns and 'scoots units out of the way' when applying the second Command Tent upgrade
    • Fixed up the 'construction version' of building actors to properly offset their navigation (if such offset exists) - useful for Command Tent, especially
    • Fixed a spawn node in the old Treasure Island/Open World (at the museum) which spawned infected into walls sometimes
    • Fixed up a potential infinite spawn loop for infected (where infected just keep pouring out of a pod nonstop)
    • Made infected simply seeing a unit not trigger a full-bore defense response (it will, however, still inform the pod of where to send reinforcements if they're already being produced) Result: Infected spawns should be a bit smarter.
    • Names added to attachments for Operator Customization screen
    • Fixed a trailer that - when overturned - didn't block nav properly in the Open World v2
    • Adjusted Infected defense responses to not go 'all out' against a civilian who manages to kill an infected
    • Fixed a spawn node in the Open World v2 that was untargetable
    • Fixed factions not having proper references in the Open World V2 (resulted in erroneous spawning)
    • Fixed missing spawn volume references in Presidio on the Open World V2 (resulted in civilians spawning from infection pods, which is odd)
    • Various Weapon balance passes
    • Price changes to research points for Shredder rounds
    • Adjustments to Treasure Island Population and Civilian spawn numbers.
    • Grenade Damage now does a "Radial" more accurate check to check for massed units/cover to lower the damage depending on how close you are to the epicenter of where the grenade exploded
    • Units called in will now land in a radial circle around the structure in question after a C130 passes by to airdrop them in
    • Speed changes for acceleration for all vehicles to make them a bit slower initially
    • main menu v2 updated for new dev update
    • C130 added for immersion effect when units are parachuting in(All special call ins that drop off units use this system now
    • These planes will handle spawning for close together buildings, if multiple buildings in a nearby area are all awaiting drop, though additional planes will spawn if there are areas too far out for a single plane to handle drops for
    • Replaced ammo drop parachute landing animation with a new experimental Vertex Animation setup.
    • Real world rate of fire put all on handheld weapons
    • Real word rate of fire applied to vehicle weapons
    • Timers for the Unit Recruits should no longer 'stop running' if they're on the flight but their original building loses power
    • Queue status widget at the bottom right will show the time until they arrive from their flight
    • Fixed up some more ammobox-related actors getting confused about parachutes
    • Fixed up AC130 recruit-dropping logic erroneously 'missing' units who had a training duration beyond the current flight's timer
    • Fixed Operator weapons not saving
    • M1A Socom weapon added for Operator
    • Crash resolved when loading Operator when secondary weapon is equipped
    • Loading of weapons across the board smoothed out slightly
    • Laser sight appearing gray when loading an operator whose not in combat resolved
    • If the secondary weapon was equipped and the Operator was saved while in RTS mode, it properly will attach to the 3P mesh now
    • Fixed Minigun stats to allow for refilling ammo properly and stop the UI from reporting that the Minigun's always low on reserve ammo
    • Fixed the Minigunner call-in being usable even if you already have a minigunner (may not retroactively affect saves, so old saves may still be able to call in more than one)
    • Weapon Market V2 added
    • Optimization tweaks to make the game cheaper on lower end machines/older hardware
    • Fixed up vehicle parachuting so the Capture Truck call-in won't summon without a parachute (or with a glitchy one)
    • Also slightly changed Chelsey's logic to hopefully prevent another scenario where she's somehow killable w/o Shredder
    • Made large/boss infected immune to ram damage
    • Flashbangs don't affect allies anymore
    • Added test pain killing volume to open world master Z to kill the operator if they jump into the water
    • Idle Engineer button added at the top left
    • Adjustments increase zone income values for open world V2


    Things not live yet for Operator
    1. Operator Customization for his/her look will come in a latter patch (Pending when all CERC units are revised)
    2. Select Abilities builder (During the 2 week period)
    3. Weapon Leveling System (During the 2 week period, right now all weapons are power leveled to max level so that the operator can use to access all attachments)

    5. Firing from Helicopters/Controlling the Operator while being a passenger on a vehicle in general (During the 2 week period)

    [h3]Change list[/h3]
    • Deployment System : This is one of the final systems we've been planning to wrap up unit recruitment. Over the next week or so units will get better more fitting parachutes + and they will be more evenly spaced out for drops. (A new system was added so units purchased have to airdrop in to your location making it harder to just spam out of poorly planned defenses/situations. A plane makes a pass by every 30 seconds the mesh will be added for the actual unit doing the airdrop next week)
    • You can now save and load presets for unit customizations for any unit type
    • Open World V2 improvements relating to building locations and more objects you can remove
    • Added seizure warning to the game
    • Loading Screens revised to reduce flashes
    • Fix for sandbags/misc structures launching units

    Cepheus Protocol Anthology


    We will be launching a new weekly series that will see several chapters added every Friday after release and will cover the chapters of the Novelization with 5 chapters added to expand upon the story and give more value to those itching for more lore/story information. It will delve into and show more about a secret new faction that will become the Anti-CERC in the Cepheus Protocol universe.

    Don't forget to wishlist!

    The Halcyon Winds Store is now live to support development and profits go towards expanding the team. This is in response to several requests I've gotten quite a few times about those that don't want to do patreon but want to support via merch.(Posters, Jackets etc) Check it out we'll add more over the next few weeks-months! ːWinterSmileː
