1.0.7h

New Stuff

• CTF
  • Flag return mechanics have been reworked
  • Flags now take considerably longer to return to base (10s  -> 60s)
  • This return time is sped up considerably when allied players are near the flag (6s with 1 player, 3s with 2 players, 2s with 3 or more players)
  • Return time is now indicated by a meter above the flag when dropped
  • Flag movement when held by players is now smoother for clients
• Outfitter Hub Event
  • Interact to save your currently equipped loadout
  • Select saved loadouts to equip saved weapons, artifacts and active item
• Set Outfit Mode Setting
  • Select a saved outfit; all players will enter battle with chosen loadout
• Mouse over tooltips
  • Some settings options now have tooltips to better explain the options
• Weapon drop setting option changed to "Loadout Options"
  • "Classic" is the previous weapon drop mode, where players start with default speargun and must pickup weapons from spawners or defeated enemies
  • "Custom" lets players start off with the weapons they have chosen in the hub. Instead of weapon spawners, ammo pickups will appear instead
  • "Random" causes all players to have randomized weapons whenever they spawn.
• New visual effects
  • flashing for invincibility, Pepper damage aura, despawning weapon drops
  • fading for ragdoll frags
  • Particles for invincibility, blindness, respawn foreshadowing, ammo pickups

Netcode Stuff

• Client now processes attacks a little differently. This should reduce the effect of packet loss and make weapons like Maelstrom and Wave Beam look better
• Fixed a bug causing latency to be calculated incorrectly
• Fixed bug causing laggy clients to desync at the start of matches
• Fixed client player processing dropthrough platforms incorrectly

Muh Balance

• Morning Star: Star now auto homes towards the mouse
• Puffballer: Reworked. Projectiles no longer follow mouse or grow after time but are faster and create more spores.
• Recoil for various weapons such as the Slodge Nozzle and Stuttergun has been adjusted to be multiple instances of small recoil instead of a single instance upon firing.
