Techrot Encore: Hotfix 38.5.4
Changes:
- Temporarily removed the "Auto-Disband Public Matchmade Squads" feature as it was causing players to lose function when leaving missions.
- We’ll revisit re-adding this feature in our next Cert build to ensure its return is stable.
- The Hell-Scrubber speed-up mechanic in Temporal Archimedea now only requires players to kill the marked Techrot Babau to decrease the mission timer.
- Previously, these Techrot Babau would drop a "Hell-Scrubber Detonator" that players would need to bring to a Hell-Scrubber tower. This mechanic wasn't entirely clear to players, so we've simplified it to mirror the Rogue Necramech Eximus mechanic in Deep Archimedea.
- Increased the number of Backbeat beats that Temple's Metronome SFX will play for from 3 to 4.
- This gives players a little more wiggle room to continue triggering the Metronome SFX when they're consistently casting Temple's abilities.
- As a refresher, the SFX will play on the first successful Backbeat hit, and will continue to play until they have not cast an Ability on the Backbeat for 4 beats.
- Our original patch note indicated it persisted for 5 beats — this was incorrect, oops!
- This gives players a little more wiggle room to continue triggering the Metronome SFX when they're consistently casting Temple's abilities.
- Further SFX polish for Temple's Abilities.
- Increased the volume on Temple's Metronome.
Top Fixes:
- Fixed Temple's passive not functioning correctly in Höllvania missions.
- Fixed host migration after 3 waves of Stage Defense causing the ground to not break properly, resulting in returning players possibly being progression stopped.
- This fix also addressed similar issues with the Stöfler defense mission on Lua.
- Fixed a crash when attempting to remove an Incarnon Genesis at Cavalero.
- Fixed the Antivirus Bounty missing an Extraction Waypoint if it was an Exterminate mission with the Volatile Techrot bounty modifier.
Performance & Optimization:
- Fixed using a Gemini Emote with many appearance configs but none of them containing a Gemini Skin causing performance issues for Clients.
- Made systemic micro-optimizations to core engine code.
- Fixed a small memory leak caused by the Leaping Thrasher's VFX.
Fixes:
- Fixed various Syandana offsets on the Chymerist Suit.
- Fixed Technocyte Coda Duets being able to spawn behind the doors in the Höllvania loading tunnel.
- Fixed Legacyte having difficulty getting off the subway tracks in a new Höllvania tile. Nothing wrong with asking for uppies.
- Fixed being able to trade the Coda Bassocyst.
- Fixed being unable to purchase a pro-rated bundle if the player has placed all owned decorations available in that bundle.
- Fixed Mesa's Peacemakers not always being visible on her model in-mission.
- Fixed being unable to Chat Link the Lovestruck Ephemera.
- Fixed a script error related to Ash's Blade Storm.
