Version 1.1 BETA 7

Hey folks!

The BETA 7 fixes a couple of issues.

VERSION 1.1 BETA 7:

- localizations update (not all is implemented yet!)
- fixed the "Wetworks" and "Punisher" achievements sometimes not unlocking
- fixed a crash that could have occurred when a lot of enemies on security cameras would notify other enemies of the same intruder

[h2]Things to keep in mind:[/h2]

This is a BETA version, meaning there will be issues. Opt-in at your own discretion!
Localizations for the update are not yet ready, and so the new content is available only in english for the time being.
Once the update rolls out officially, the localizations there will be implemented.
Playing on the "version11" BETA, making a savefile with the new weapons, and then switching back to the regular game branch will lead the game to fail to load the savefile. If you play and make savefiles on the "version11" BETA, you are committing to playing those savefiles on the BETA branch, until the update formally releases.

Version 1.1 BETA 3

Hey folks!

Version 1.1 BETA 3 is now live. I have rewritten the pathfind queue system, which will hopefully take care of the "enemies refuse to move" bug. The rewrite revealed the exact spot where the issue occurs, as I was able to finally reproduce the issue on my end, however this needs further testing to confirm that it really has solved the problem.

With that said, the beta version of 1.1 is now available for everyone to try. I'd like to ask everyone interested in testing out the new content, and leaving their feedback on it to switch over to the "version11" BETA and try out the new things.

1.1 BETA 3 CHANGES:

- rewrote the pathfind queueing system, which should finally fix the "enemies refuse to move" bug - needs testing, please play the game and let me know whether any issues arise!
- fixed a crash that could occur when playing with Fog of War
- various other miscellaneous fixes related to 1.1 BETA

Version 1.1 BETA now available!

Hey folks!

If you've been wondering why there haven't been any updates for the game lately, the reason is simple - I've been working on the upcoming 1.1 update, which brings new features, and additional content for the Supporter Pack.

With that said, the beta version of 1.1 is now available for everyone to try. I'd like to ask everyone interested in testing out the new content, and leaving their feedback on it to switch over to the "version11" BETA and try out the new things.

- returned mouse wheel object interaction as a separate toggle to the options menu
- reduced gas grenade explosion noise level
