Intravenous 2 News

Hey folks!

This patch fixes a very serious issue - if the player had a lot (and I mean A LOT) of savefiles, the game could fail to launch, due to the game running out of memory.
This could easily happen to people playing on a custom difficulty with infinite savefiles, and saving very often.

- fixed the game crashing on startup if the user had a very large amount of savefiles and improved savefile handling to reduce memory usage (thanks to ~Enstinck~ for the bug report!)
- sped up launching of the game with a lot of savefiles by limiting the savefiles which get evaluated for the "Continue" button

Hey folks!

This patch fixes a couple of issues.

- fixed incorrect sprite used for the objective compromising material pickup on "Gang Hideout"
- fixed incorrect follower state in Decrepit Industrial Area, which caused enemies to shoot at him (regression introduced in previous patch, fix is not retroactive, will be applied on next map load)
- improved pathfinding queueing and cancellation, which can potentially fix cases where enemies would stop moving on very slow/old CPUs
