Milestone 6 Hotfix Update

We're updating the game with a bunch of small changes we've accrued from feedback reports + internal testing since the last Milestone update! Many of these fixes were applied without any corresponding patch notes in the days after the update shipped; others are being added in today's update.

✨Changes and improvements

• Many more glasses options are now available for coaches

• Added some new audio

  • Foley (footstep + other surface sounds) for metal objects

  • A shine sound for when Debugly's eyes shine (and possible other uses)

  • Other obscure spots which were missing unique sounds

🚧Fixes and Changes

• Fixed issue with Beasties sometimes not visually moving to a new location on their Defense action until after the turn had resolved

• Re-fixed issue where it was possible to accidentally Skip Defense in certain UI configurations

• Fixed an issue where re-playing a certain minigame as part of Dominic's hangouts would also repeat some social system pop-ups

• Re-factored how some mod systems are tracked to avoid issues where save files could be marked as modded when they aren't

• Added Build to Celia's list of plays which can be taught as a favor (was originally intended, but the wrong ID was used in the initial update release)

• Fix for Magpike mouth colors

• Newly traded Beasties are no longer given the option to "Add to your Team" in the initial recruit screen

• Fixed issues with Role Reverse's effects not working as intended

• "Rowdy" attacks now also reset the Rowdy Beastie's trait to make trait disruption very slightly less effective for those matches

• Adjusted some awkward collisions and gaps around the new area (Construczone)

• Fixed a misplaced "portal" that allowed players to enter the Construczone from an unintended location

• Adjusted some playbooks for Beasties in the Tower Tourney + Random Teams

• Backrow-only attacks such as Rainbow are now treated as having a slight anti-synergy with forward passing abilities for generated teams

• The AI is now more wary of Beasties that are SHOOK/TIRED/WIPED etc. but have a viable damage dealing attack

• Away Team Beasties no longer appear as available to trade

• Adjusted the origin point for Hopsong so that they don't clip into the ground as much

• Adjusted Gremlur's Partner Combo effect so that it has some effect when they're Partners with Opposur

• Fixed an issue where match replays wouldn't properly apply the nickname whitelist to Beasties that visit from online strangers

• Fixed an issue where 2 different encounters with Jack could occur in the same location on the same save file

• Fixed some issues with player hand skin color tinting which were introduced by the new added tones

• Fixed issue with Beasties on your Away Team not properly appearing the the credits sequence

• Adjusted some area layouts slightly to prevent bad out of bounds or improve clarity

• Re-adjusted the skin color applied to coaches when starting a new game

• Adjusted layering on the steam VFX around Rowdy Beasties

• Added an extra hint to prevent getting stuck during a special event around Mainframe (this hint only appears in English for now...)

• Made some adjustments specifically to prevent + correct a possible softlock during the above noted sequence using out-of-bounds clipping

• Updated the appearance of some area on the map screen to match their new designs

• Fixed a crash to do with the player not having enough Beasties for a post-game story event

• Away Teams no longer will appear in most Construczone areas

• Fixed a crash to do with entering a PVP game while in a Geo City area containing billboard ads

• Fixed a crash to do with attacks that can bypass shields (Tough/Barriers) hitting into one such shield

• Fixed some stray/transparent pixels in Riley's character art

• Added more names to the Beastie nickname whitelist (mostly from the Portuguese translation)

• Some extra safety added to prevent obscure crashes

• Fixed some crashes/issues that were discovered by players modding game data

• Made some changes to how play IDs are resolved to fix some incorrect data appearing in Beastie analytics

• Fixed some typos
