What's New

Gameplay

• Pilots don't get stuck when the vehicle they're going towards gets destroyed
  • This time for sure!

Stability

• Fixed a dumb crash in ClearScrapAround :P

Multiplayer

• Reorganized how the shell handles of map types
  • Now driven by a couple of data tables
  • Shuffled around the type list
• Fixed a major buffer overrun in the map list
  • Triggered when a line in netmis.txt was over 100 characters
  • Overwrote global shell state causing all kinds of problems

Scripting

• Fixed ClearScrapAround when called from Start
  • The Scrap range search structure hadn't been set up yet
• Added some script utility functions for wrangling AI units
  • CanCommand: the unit can be commanded
  • CanBuild: the producer is able to build
  • IsBusy: the producer is currently busy
• Armory properly handles BuildAt command
  • Internally works like the Construction Rig
  • Builds immediately when given a "where"
  • Otherwise waits for a Dropoff command
