Howdy Folks!

Hope you’re all doing well! This update ended up being a little different that I orgininally intended. The plan had been to have Medic-centric Meat Fortress content ready for this update, but I ran into some performance issues with my new bot functionality for them mid-week, and course-corrected into focussing on general gameplay and pathing improvements for the mode instead!
One thing you should notice is that certain classes no longer get ‘locked down’ in skirmishing (especially the scout) but will instead continue to evade and run to their goal regardless of distance to target. Other classes do this when outside of a short range, so you should no longer see engies and pyros trying to take 100m engagements standing still with a shotgun. This should also really help the various classes feel more distinct in their combat behavior.
The addition of the ‘Play Area’ option was also a much needed refactor of how I design ‘goals’ and ‘zones’ for the agents to fight in/to/around and will enable the creation of other modes far easier. The current plan is to tackle a Capture Point mode next, as well as to get some sort of Team Scoring in as well. Those, and the Medic content, I plan to have ready for you folks sometime in August.
Anywho, that’s it for now. As i said in the devlog, there _likely_ won’t be a devlog/update next week, as I’ll be recovering from some dentist shenanigans. I’ll cya folks first Friday of August for some more Meaty good times!
Cheers,
Anton
