Cross-posted from Kickstarter: We did it! As planned, we were able to push out a new build of Planetary Annihilation every day this week. The goal was to smooth out a lot of performance bugs and get the overall stability of the client up. Mission accomplished, we think. The game now runs much faster, it crashes less for the folks who had problems, and it's just a lot more reliable in general. If you haven't been in the loop, here's a quick rundown of the major fixes and additions we dropped into the game throughout the week: Fixes for various server crash issues Eliminated Advanced Metal Extractor exploit Better ATI support for Mac users Improved Steam launching for Linux version Made advanced tanks smaller Vastly improved water unit pathing AI now uses bots Now support mapping for WASD Added new art for energy plant, sea air defense, advanced radar satellite Added the ability to specifically select AI as an opponent instead of having players leave spots open. Cool stuff, right? With this behind us, we'll continue improving the performance of the overall game. But, now we're also going to continue our feature development. Stuff like enhanced lobbies, for example, advanced unit control, and Galactic War. We look forward to playing with you over the weekend! Have fun, smash some planets!
I don’t know where really to put this, or if it is known or not, but for a while I have been getting a bug where when I drop from a game and reconnect I cannot see units or builds, it is mostly a several unit types and random buildings, if I hit f5, it does nothing, I quit out and rejoin, different unit types and buildings have vanished and others have reappeared. also, why does the sun have death sphere where if you get close enough, you will orbit the sun forever and never break free?
Great work ... Cant wait to add AI to the same team even though they are on a different armies... They don't function to well when they are together on the same army as one team...
Will we be able to use the Uber.net name display name isntead of the steam one at some point? I do rather have my uber.net one but I do not want to change my steam name. ^^
OH GOD YES! On the other note: great job fixing stuff and bringing new features guys. Looking forward to whar future holds.
In the newest beta planet smashing doesn't seem to work anymore. I won't get any engine symbols in the planet list when I'm building delta Vs.
