Coding

  • Support for flying AI added (angua)
  • Players can no longer hide in shadows created by objects they are carrying (Rebb)

  • AI will not be so easily killed (corrected combat settings that were modifying AI HP by -50 (!) on Normal setting). (Springheel)

The scripting interface has been greatly enhanced to make it more versatile:

  • Script events need now only be declared on the SDK side (greebo).
  • There are many new functions (tels):
    • to modify objectives
    • transform numbers (ceil(), floor(), getBoolKey())
    • determine the difficulty level
    • call functions when an AI is knocked out
    • get the entity that the player drags, shoulders or has grabbed

Textures

Too many to list.
