Patch 1.1.0 Released – Modding Tools
Hello everyone,
In this patch we are releasing the first stage of our modding support (more details below). The second stage of the modding tools (map and campaign editors) is still in the works and will arrive in a later update.

We have added new popular request features like Active pause and Photo mode. Patch 1.1.0 also includes gameplay tweaks as well as many fixes to mechanics, quests and content.
 
Highlights

- Modding Tools – you can access the modding tools from the Main Menu -> Mod Manager -> Mod Editor button. This batch of modding tools allow you to modify the mechanics of the game, create new mercs, IMP characters, weapons, UI, localization and even voiceovers for new languages. You can import assets you have created via our Blender exporter. These include new character models, new weapons, and new game assets.

The documentation will automatically open when you enter the Mod Editor.

- Sample Mods – we have prepared a series of sample mods (available on Steam Workshop) to demonstrate our modding tools. These include:
o a new AIM merc character with new voice lines
o a new weapon (the M1A1 Thompson) using a new caliber the .45 ACP
o a new operation – Scrounge (spend time looking for items)
o a new IMP character – new appearance – Grey Suit
There is additional information about the sample mods in the documentation.
- Photo Mode – found in the in-game menu. Photo mode offers free camera, a variety of sliders to tweak the picture, and options to hide or show the game UI.

- Active Pause – you can now pause time while exploring tactical maps in real time. This will allow you to better plan your actions and manage stealth approaches without worrying about quick reflexes. By default, tactical pause is set to the Spacebar key on the keyboard. (Community Suggestion)
 
NOTE
: It is impossible to execute multiple attacks at the same time. Any attack will un-pause the game.

- Weapon Shipments – enemies can now send weapons shipments (similar to diamond shipments) that contain weapons, ammo, meds, and parts. Intercept them to gain some extra resources and items. (Community Suggestion).

- Satellite travel speed balancing – Changed the way Leadership affects travel time, resulting in Leadership having less of an impact (Community Suggestion)

- Better initiation of combat start – Reduced the dead time before a battle starts when a merc is detected and added additional notification about ongoing attacks

Might want to hold off on this one for a bit, as the camera autofocus is now erratic, to say the least.

While aiming, it sometimes zooms in on the enemy, which makes sense, but then for the shot itself it focuses on the merc. ONLY on the merc, disregarding the target. I can't even see the target, so I don't know if my shot hit or missed until I hear my merc's comment, or the enemy count decreases... rather anticlimactic. This is not a one-off, I'm seeing it with approximately 2 out of 5 attacks.

I wish I had a video to make it clearer, but this is what my battles look like since the patch:

Buns notices enemy, all good:

Aiming:

Firing - enemy off screen:

Omryn spots enemy:

Aims, then fires - enemy off screen:

image.thumb.png.89efb320307c133917b627103831f943.png

With the "targeting action camera" (cinematic camera view) there's now frequently a lot of back and forth. It may use that view while aiming, then for the shot go back to regular tactical camera for a split second, then back to cinematic to watch the bullet fly. If it's a stealth kill, it sometimes changes perspective a fourth time just before impact, this time to the "enemy noticed something" cut scene.

Did anyone notice that Quickload was removed? Is this a bug or intentional? The patchnotes don't mention anything.

Still works for me. I would check the hotkey configuration, maybe it was changed or reset.

But anyway, this patch is quite broken.

In one of my saves I can no longer see any mercs, nor can I open satellite view or the laptop. I can open the inventory once, then all UI elements disappear.

Enemies who were attacking the sector when I made the save are now idling at the edge of the map, behind the red line, not approaching at all. I can see them, but they can't see me. I can even attack them, they don't react. Must have something to do with the new active pause feature, even though I didn't use it.

I have the same issue, except that this is my only save game (iron man like playthrough), an autogenerated sector enter save 😞 Now I cannot continue my campaign since the patch yesterday because I'm stuck in tactical view and:

  • Sat View is greyed out
  • my mercs are not visible
  • time is running, i.e. not in deployment phase anymore, which I should be with a sector enter save
  • my not-really-there mercs can attack enemies but combat phase does not start
  • my not-really-there mercs cannot interact with the "retreat to X12" objects

I dunno how to attach a save game file here, but I will happily provide it.

Do enemies finally get knocked down by explosives? or are they still "terminators"?

I mean, it's very much a Hollywood thing that frag grenades blast people into the air and stuff.  But then this is in a game based on action movie tropes with cars exploding all over, so I'm not sure what they should do.

I'm fine with them now though.

I am having the same problem.  I cannot see anyone (Mercs, Enemies, or NPCs) in the tactical menu.  I've tried reinstalling, but no good. I tried uninstalling and reinstalling with the offline version, still black screen.  Then I tried the offline installer without patch 1.0b to 1.1 and still black screen.  I've tried starting new games as well.  Still black screen.  Does anyone know how to fix this?  My computer is a HP EliteOne 800 G5 with Intel I9-9900 and no additional graphics card.

If a car explodes from a single bullet...
Also - ok frag grenades don't throw people into the air, but I highly doubt you'd just stand straight after one explodes next to you. Not to mention HE rockets (RPGs)...
