[h2]Patchnote #24 for Dark Hours (v0.7.16560) - 29/01/2025[/h2]
[h3]Monsters[/h3]
- Banshee Improvements:
- Frozen player Fix: Fixed a bug where the Banshee would attack a player from anywhere on the map if they had been frozen.
- Banshee 2nd phase: Fixed a bug where the Banshee would attack the player immediately after screaming if it did not have the player in sight.
- Dash Banshee: Fixed a bug where the Banshee could dash infinitely in the hallways during its 3rd phase. Now, it can no longer dash more than twice.
- Blind Ghoul Improvements:
- Door sound Fix: The Blind Ghoul now correctly ignores the sound of doors it opens itself.
- Stone Stalker Improvements:
- Stone Stalkers are now correctly immobile when they are positioned one behind the other.
[h3]Gameplay[/h3]
- Doors Fix: You can now open doors from the inside if you managed to enter through a vent or if one of your teammates locked you in.
- Electric doors locked fix: A door requiring electricity or hacking device can now also be opened from the inside but will close again once the player moves away from it.
- Defibrillator fix: Fixed a bug where a player put to sleep by a tranquilizer dart and revived by a defibrillator would retain the dart's effects (slowed voice, snoring, black vignette) when they should not.
- Tranquilizer fix: Fixed a bug where a player hit by two tranquilizer darts in a row would never wake up.
