Update 22 hotfix #3

Hey there AFF Community!

Turns out one more intermediate patch is very much in order. With the previous update for the first time in AFF history we’ve introduced a major crash to the game. Not a terrible statistic perhaps but we’re truly sorry nonetheless, was a nasty memory-management/packaging bug and took us a good chunk of Easter to fix. Should be taken care of now and we’re throwing in a bunch of other improvements and tweaks to the game too.

Changelog:

• Fixed a crash affecting both servers and client, primarily on the space maps but really whenever something referenced one of the game’s internal packages

• Fixed various issues with LZs not behaving properly in territories

• Fixed damage scaling being incorrectly applied to fighters, dropships and deployables

• Fixed issue with command callouts (such as 'move to this position') not playing the associated sound cue properly

• Fixed display issue with phase x of y being zero-indexed on the faction selection screen

• Destroyable objects (droppods, consoles) tweaked to be slightly more resistant vs bullets (but not vs AV weaponry) and have a little less total health

• Added config for disabling bot callouts entirely from chat (see AFFComms.ini if you really want to, will be exposed in the menus later on)

• Increased railbarrel mod’s penalty to accuracy

• Fortress updates:

• Added more cover near AIA spawn and additional pathway into the Objective B warehouse

• Rearranged cover near the warehouse to force ULA players on “the wall” to expose themselves more to fire to be able to shoot at Objective B

• Added more cover near ULA spawn

• Tannhauser updates:

• Raised out-of-bounds volume further

• Fixed missing collision on rings around the rail launcher, capacitor rings, lift trolley and improved collision on some ramps

• Fixed various collision issues near ULA spawn in Yin Tao Shan Territories

• Fixed rooftop ramp collision near Objective C in Irega Incursion

• Fixed missing collision on tyres and rocks in Igneous
