:::: PNGLoader::handlePixel's signature is the main change - contact Asu for help in discord if you need it!
 +
:::: Anyone only using customblocks.as should be unaffected though, as nothing has changed there.

:::: If you use/abuse the TTH trading system this is something to be careful of

 +
:* Knight Shield Stacking
 +
::: This is now a physical thing - you need to actually jump onto the guy shielding you. It looks quite funny, like a frantic scramble to get over a wall. This should fix the people shield-flying over the red barrier as well, as they should not be able to jump on top of each other ;^)
 +
:* TDM Spawns
 +
::: TDM now works with multiple spawn markers. Players will randomly spawn at either of the possible spawns, for a more diverse TDM experience. We’re looking for some nice maps to add to the pool, drop them in the thread if you want them looked at :^)
 +
:* Documentation work
 +
::: There’s been more work done documenting the CBlob class at http://doc.kag2d.com/ - the docs there are almost complete, we’ll be covering the sprite class next. It’s a very slow and exhausting job, so hopefully someone is getting some use out of it! Please leave feedback on what you like, what you don’t, and what you’d like to see, we’re kind of shooting in the dark here.
 +
:* Community Sourced Fixes
 +
::: This build has two community sourced fixes and improvements, one from Verra expanding the timer.as functionality, and one from norill fixing mines “randomly” exploding your demolition shop. Thanks guys!
 +
:* Misc Fixes
 +
::: I’ve also fixed a few miscellaneous bugs, including the misleading join message, which used to read “<Nickname> has joined as <Username>” - it now shows the correct “<Username> has joined as <Nickname>”. Sorry to anyone accused of impersonating as a result of this, I know I have a few times!

+
Changes from build 893 to 898:
  
Changes from build 24 to 28:
+
:* Kegs are more expensive in CTF but tear through structures doors, blocks, etc very effectively due to a few bugfixes there.
 +
:* Fire spreads from doors and platform tiles. This means door cases around the flag are quite a bit less effective, at least with normal wood doors. Kegs are still the ultimate breaching solution though.
 +
:* Knights take 3 hits to break wood tiles instead of 2. We’ll probably allow breaking other “natural” tiles as well, like gold and maybe thick stone, but with more hits and more feedback for each.
 +
:* Archer bow rotates visually to give better indication of charge state. This should help with some of the difficulties people were/are having with the archer.
 +
:* Fixed some camera bugs. There are still a few in, they’ll be fixed as soon as we can manage.
 +
:* Added a ding when hitting something that cant be damaged. This still needs some more filtering added, there are a couple of outliers like seeds and hearts which still ding cheerfully with every hit. This will of course be patched soon.
  
* zoom in/out keys work by tapping now
+

 +
Changes from build 878 to 886:
  
==Build 20 (8/May/2011)==
+
:* CTF Mode
 +
::: Obviously this is the big one. Capture the enemy’s flag, take it to one of yours, do that till the enemy is out of flags. Simple stuff. Lots of fun.
 +
:* Coin Operated Workshops
 +
::: Another big one that I know a lot of classic veterans have been holding out for - CTF sees the return of plinky plonky coins and all the bombs your money can buy. The coin gathering mechanics have changed slightly, but it’s more of the same.
 +
:* KAGGen Map Generator
 +
::: This was actually done as a demo of a procedural map, but turned out fun enough to include in the CTF map cycle. We’ll be adding more to the creatively-named KAGGen as time goes by, but for now it’s easy to configure, quick, and gives a good example of how to build a map with just code.
 +
:* New Wall Run Controls
 +
::: This new, easy to perform maneuver lets you get around terrain with much less frustration, while not giving builders as much of a headache and still leaving a lot of room for creative parkour. If you find yourself missing the easy (if counter-intuitive) notch running from classic, you’ll probably like the wall run.

 +
 
 +
Changes from build 847 to 866:
 +
 
 +
:* Archer changes:
 +
::* Legolas shot, grapple hook, more fragile health among others! Pew pew, swing swing. It’s a whole new feel for the class, and it’s just getting started. We’ll continue tweaking and hopefully adding a bit of power after its had some more thorough public testing!
 +
:* Boat changes:
 +
::* No more bashing team-mates with stolen boats before they convert! Dinghies don’t crush stuff! All sorts of good things.
 +
:* Hall Changes:
 +
::* Halls can be flooded to turn them neutral again! We’re working on a way to work units into the mix, but it didn’t stand up to testing so at the moment it’s turned off.
 +
:* Princess Mode:
 +
::* Currently in a half-finished port between the old huge huge map and the new level format there are some bugs (scores dont save or display properly properly) and some annoying map layout issues that will be fixed asap. Fortunately once the bugs there are ironed out the co-op challenge mode will be ready to rock in multiplayer!
 +
:* Death camera:
 +
::* Also currently work in progress, MM didn’t quite complete it before he left :^( very sorry to those stuck looking at trees over the weekend! We’ll be evaluating weather to keep some form of this or not in the next few days, it will need a lot of changes if it’s to keep though.
 +
:* Drill Changes:
 +
::* Doesn’t work particularly well under water, cools a bit slower, still doesn’t heat up when actually digging materials. This is to encourage using it for breaching and gathering instead of digging under the map for 20 hours in waist high water.
 +
:* Walljump Changes:
 +
::* You can now wall run vertically for quite some distance, and only jump if you aren’t pressing towards the wall. This means overhangs are mandatory on any wall you dont want people getting over, and means getting out of pits and over ledges is much simpler. We’re considering making this a hold jump option (and will be toning down the height you can make with it).
 +
:* Server Browser Changes:
 +
::* The server browser has been pre-emptively split into co-coperative and competitive tabs that sort on gamemode. This will be more relevant once the challenge multiplayer is released.
 +
:* Starter changes:
 +
::* The starter now looks nicer and doesn’t have an inside-out twitter feed.

 +
 
 +
Changes from build 800 to 806:
 +
 
 +
:* Red square
 +
::* The fabled red square of yore is back to give some much needed breathing time at the start of matches. We know this will dampen the spirit of a few rushers, but we think most will agree that the game ending in the first 30 seconds due to a stray knight capturing the first hall is pretty annoying.​
 +
:* Support is back
 +
::* Hooray!​
 +
::* Michal mentioned some changes to it so I'm not really sure what the skybridging situation will be, I'm sure it'll be better than wood tiles all the way across the sky though.​
 +
::* We're looking into a system based on the thickness of the building as well, but it didn't get finished for tonight.​
 +
:* Ballista changes
 +
::* Ballista bolts do less damage now. Their collision with terrain is kinda janky, that will be fixed soon.​
 +
::* Explosive bolts are more like a shaped charge than a mini keg.​
 +
::* We're thinking about making them stationary when firing, so they'd either be a packed mobile spawnpoint or an unpacked spawn and artillery unit​
 +
:* Spikes changes
 +
::* Spikes will only retract if they're built on stone blocks. They're also more expensive. This should make them more of an asset and less of something you want to FILL THE FIELDS with, as well as much more expensive to maintain away from the base.​
 +
:* Tech tree overhaul
 +
::* Two separate branches with a few choices for simpler voting and display and less unpredictable meta​
 +
::* Random weighting upon match start so the same items dont happen every single game - voting overrides this weighting so you still have control over what you research.​
 +
:* Minimap Tweaks
 +
::* Dead guys dont show up on the minimap.​
 +
::* Out of screen halls have some special behaviour so you can see if its under raid.​
 +
::* Out of screen unimportant entities dont stick to the edge of the minimap.​
 +
::* Ballistae and War boats have a little flag icon on minimap. We might make specific icons for all vehicles in the future, for now just knowing where spawns are is important.​
 +
::* Scripting API for the minimap stuff has got some more options now​
 +
:* War boat tweaks
 +
::* The inside of the warboat has a ladder now so you can get over the thing with 30 tries.​
 +
:* Pointing animations and taunts
 +
::* The pointing animations when performing emotes are back, with a slight twist​
 +
::* The builder has flex taunts instead of points, so you can flex while you flex (or 2525).​
 +
::* Archer has a pointing anim with a bit of camp flair. I think this will annoy some people, but I also think those people take themselves too seriously.​
 +
::* Knight point anims are largely unchanged so you can still spin your sword right round baby right round.​
 +
:* Misc Fixes and Tweaks
 +
::* The game should have fewer script crashes, and a few minor gameplay things have happened.​
 +
::* Something to note is a bomb in your pocket will now (rightly) kill you instead of helping you reach new heights. Be advised.​

===[https://forum.kag2d.com/threads/build-780-beta-remade.14373/ Build 780] (10/Jun/2013) <span id="780"></span>===
 +
 
 +
Changes from build 762 to 780:
 +
 
 +
:* Dorms
 +
::* are built for a migrant / worker to live in them. Migrants are now basically a resource which factories work on. One factory requires 2 dorms with migrants in them. Dorms are also spawns. So if you build a dorm on the frontline, somebody can spawn inside it. It has a limit to the number of spawns however, so you must build more for more people to spawn in the area. Dorms also heal like quarters in classic.
 +
:* Research
 +
::* there is one research room per-team. Defend it at all costs. Use [E] to vote on the techs you want to get. Not all of them will be research so make smart decisions! The progression of the tree is a WORK IN PROGRESS! It might change.
 +
:* Factory
 +
::* doesn't require scroll, it just needs tech unlocked in Research Room.
 +
:* Trading posts
 +
::* still remain on the map. You can still buy tech scrolls for gold and put them in research room. This is a secondary route you can take if your team didn't research a certain technology. Prices are much higher, but there is an additional possibility of exchanging wood/stone for gold
 +
:* Warboat
 +
::* is now a moving base. you can spawn in them and change class.
 +
:* Win condition
 +
::* a team loses if their population (migrants + players) goes down to zero and the enemy takes their land. You can see the population counter on HUD and "UNDER ATTACK" when they are on your land.
 +
 
 +
And many more changes for which there's no public changelog.

Build 2416 (28/11/2017)

Changes from build 2409 to 2416:

[added] blobs inside an inventory skip their scripted doesCollideWithBlob checks and don't collide
[fixed] leak in minimap code + optimised minimap update on nextmap
[fixed] crash with small maps with the minimap on
[fixed] broken emoticon menu on nextmap if it was open
[added] g_forceresolution to deal with bad resolution detection (thanks asu)

[fixed] chests and spikes stopped loading from maps (thanks asu)
[added] emote names for custom bindings + new emotes "work"
[modified] some mote emote changes based on feedback - still work to do though!

Build 2409 (21/11/2017)

Changes from build 2388 to 2409:

  • Translations:
[added] (work in progress) menu translation ability
[added] AddGlobalMessageReplacement to handle serverside messages still needing translation clientside
[modified] significantly extended translation capability (Joint KAG dev and RU translation effort)
- see the RU translation json for the probably-most-up-to-date strings
[added] more RU translations (thanks Diprog + RU translation folks)
[added] more FR translations (thanks Asu)
[fixed] TTH TradeItem translation issues
[added] linux dedicated server is forced to EN locale with a warning if it was something different.
This means we can rely on translated strings from server still being in english for re-translation on client (eg descriptions).
  • Performance/Optimisation:
[modified] improved map loading performance (thanks Asu)
[removed] irrlicht enums no one uses/should use anyway (thanks Asu)
[removed] legacy map generation for smaller compiled size and fewer dependencies (thanks Asu)
  • Miscellaneous:
[added] material script and config refactor (thanks Fuzzle)
[added] new profiler (thanks asu)
[updated] cruxiat head
[modified] better/more consistent descriptions in some challenge missions
[modified] Similar matches are prioritized over soft matches (thanks Asu)
[fixed] precache and scripts force reload after disconnect (thanks MM)
[reverted] verra's change from last build (sorry Verra)
- people are suspicious of this change currently so we should run a week or two without it and see if the suspicions hold up.
[added] new emotes to spritesheet (can be used through config file only at this stage, treat these as unfinished and might vanish)
[updated] new discord link (thanks fuzzle, congrats discord folks)
  • Linux/OSX:
[fixed] linux DLC heads and main menu background issues (thanks Asu)
[modified] enabled SSE2 on mac and linux for performance (thanks Asu)
  • Modding Compatibility:
[important] map loading changes are likely to bite anyone with a custom map loader if it's based on BasePNGLoader.
Lowest effort fix would be getting the old BasePNGLoader from github, renaming it to OldPNGLoader and including it in your mod directly.
Better fix would be observing the changes that have been made and applying them to your own loader
PNGLoader::handlePixel's signature is the main change - contact Asu for help in discord if you need it!
Anyone only using customblocks.as should be unaffected though, as nothing has changed there.
[minor] new serialisation for TradeItem in TTH
If you use/abuse the TTH trading system this is something to be careful of
Check the changes to TradingCommon.as if you want the details.

[fixed] tutorial and other challenges lighting
[fixed] tutorial mapcycle issue

[modified] entity lifetimes code cleaned up (thanks verra)

Build 1013 (27/Jan/2014)

Changes from build 984 to 1013:

  • Knight Shield Stacking
This is now a physical thing - you need to actually jump onto the guy shielding you. It looks quite funny, like a frantic scramble to get over a wall. This should fix the people shield-flying over the red barrier as well, as they should not be able to jump on top of each other ;^)
  • TDM Spawns
TDM now works with multiple spawn markers. Players will randomly spawn at either of the possible spawns, for a more diverse TDM experience. We’re looking for some nice maps to add to the pool, drop them in the thread if you want them looked at :^)
  • Documentation work
There’s been more work done documenting the CBlob class at http://doc.kag2d.com/ - the docs there are almost complete, we’ll be covering the sprite class next. It’s a very slow and exhausting job, so hopefully someone is getting some use out of it! Please leave feedback on what you like, what you don’t, and what you’d like to see, we’re kind of shooting in the dark here.
  • Community Sourced Fixes
This build has two community sourced fixes and improvements, one from Verra expanding the timer.as functionality, and one from norill fixing mines “randomly” exploding your demolition shop. Thanks guys!
  • Misc Fixes
I’ve also fixed a few miscellaneous bugs, including the misleading join message, which used to read “<Nickname> has joined as <Username>” - it now shows the correct “<Username> has joined as <Nickname>”. Sorry to anyone accused of impersonating as a result of this, I know I have a few times!

Build 898 (1/Oct/2013)

Changes from build 893 to 898:

  • Kegs are more expensive in CTF but tear through structures doors, blocks, etc very effectively due to a few bugfixes there.
  • Fire spreads from doors and platform tiles. This means door cases around the flag are quite a bit less effective, at least with normal wood doors. Kegs are still the ultimate breaching solution though.
  • Knights take 3 hits to break wood tiles instead of 2. We’ll probably allow breaking other “natural” tiles as well, like gold and maybe thick stone, but with more hits and more feedback for each.
  • Archer bow rotates visually to give better indication of charge state. This should help with some of the difficulties people were/are having with the archer.
  • Fixed some camera bugs. There are still a few in, they’ll be fixed as soon as we can manage.
  • Added a ding when hitting something that cant be damaged. This still needs some more filtering added, there are a couple of outliers like seeds and hearts which still ding cheerfully with every hit. This will of course be patched soon.

Build 886 (20/Sep/2013)

Changes from build 878 to 886:

  • CTF Mode
Obviously this is the big one. Capture the enemy’s flag, take it to one of yours, do that till the enemy is out of flags. Simple stuff. Lots of fun.
  • Coin Operated Workshops
Another big one that I know a lot of classic veterans have been holding out for - CTF sees the return of plinky plonky coins and all the bombs your money can buy. The coin gathering mechanics have changed slightly, but it’s more of the same.
  • KAGGen Map Generator
This was actually done as a demo of a procedural map, but turned out fun enough to include in the CTF map cycle. We’ll be adding more to the creatively-named KAGGen as time goes by, but for now it’s easy to configure, quick, and gives a good example of how to build a map with just code.
  • New Wall Run Controls
This new, easy to perform maneuver lets you get around terrain with much less frustration, while not giving builders as much of a headache and still leaving a lot of room for creative parkour. If you find yourself missing the easy (if counter-intuitive) notch running from classic, you’ll probably like the wall run.

Build 866 (30/Aug/2013)

Changes from build 847 to 866:

  • Archer changes:
  • Legolas shot, grapple hook, more fragile health among others! Pew pew, swing swing. It’s a whole new feel for the class, and it’s just getting started. We’ll continue tweaking and hopefully adding a bit of power after its had some more thorough public testing!
  • Boat changes:
  • No more bashing team-mates with stolen boats before they convert! Dinghies don’t crush stuff! All sorts of good things.
  • Hall Changes:
  • Halls can be flooded to turn them neutral again! We’re working on a way to work units into the mix, but it didn’t stand up to testing so at the moment it’s turned off.
  • Princess Mode:
  • Currently in a half-finished port between the old huge huge map and the new level format there are some bugs (scores dont save or display properly properly) and some annoying map layout issues that will be fixed asap. Fortunately once the bugs there are ironed out the co-op challenge mode will be ready to rock in multiplayer!
  • Death camera:
  • Also currently work in progress, MM didn’t quite complete it before he left :^( very sorry to those stuck looking at trees over the weekend! We’ll be evaluating weather to keep some form of this or not in the next few days, it will need a lot of changes if it’s to keep though.
  • Drill Changes:
  • Doesn’t work particularly well under water, cools a bit slower, still doesn’t heat up when actually digging materials. This is to encourage using it for breaching and gathering instead of digging under the map for 20 hours in waist high water.
  • Walljump Changes:
  • You can now wall run vertically for quite some distance, and only jump if you aren’t pressing towards the wall. This means overhangs are mandatory on any wall you dont want people getting over, and means getting out of pits and over ledges is much simpler. We’re considering making this a hold jump option (and will be toning down the height you can make with it).
  • Server Browser Changes:
  • The server browser has been pre-emptively split into co-coperative and competitive tabs that sort on gamemode. This will be more relevant once the challenge multiplayer is released.
  • Starter changes:
  • The starter now looks nicer and doesn’t have an inside-out twitter feed.

Build 806 (3/Jul/2013)

Changes from build 800 to 806:

  • Red square
  • The fabled red square of yore is back to give some much needed breathing time at the start of matches. We know this will dampen the spirit of a few rushers, but we think most will agree that the game ending in the first 30 seconds due to a stray knight capturing the first hall is pretty annoying.​
  • Support is back
  • Hooray!​
  • Michal mentioned some changes to it so I'm not really sure what the skybridging situation will be, I'm sure it'll be better than wood tiles all the way across the sky though.​
  • We're looking into a system based on the thickness of the building as well, but it didn't get finished for tonight.​
  • Ballista changes
  • Ballista bolts do less damage now. Their collision with terrain is kinda janky, that will be fixed soon.​
  • Explosive bolts are more like a shaped charge than a mini keg.​
  • We're thinking about making them stationary when firing, so they'd either be a packed mobile spawnpoint or an unpacked spawn and artillery unit​
  • Spikes changes
  • Spikes will only retract if they're built on stone blocks. They're also more expensive. This should make them more of an asset and less of something you want to FILL THE FIELDS with, as well as much more expensive to maintain away from the base.​
  • Tech tree overhaul
  • Two separate branches with a few choices for simpler voting and display and less unpredictable meta​
  • Random weighting upon match start so the same items dont happen every single game - voting overrides this weighting so you still have control over what you research.​
  • Minimap Tweaks
  • Dead guys dont show up on the minimap.​
  • Out of screen halls have some special behaviour so you can see if its under raid.​
  • Out of screen unimportant entities dont stick to the edge of the minimap.​
  • Ballistae and War boats have a little flag icon on minimap. We might make specific icons for all vehicles in the future, for now just knowing where spawns are is important.​
  • Scripting API for the minimap stuff has got some more options now​
  • War boat tweaks
  • The inside of the warboat has a ladder now so you can get over the thing with 30 tries.​
  • Pointing animations and taunts
  • The pointing animations when performing emotes are back, with a slight twist​
  • The builder has flex taunts instead of points, so you can flex while you flex (or 2525).​
  • Archer has a pointing anim with a bit of camp flair. I think this will annoy some people, but I also think those people take themselves too seriously.​
  • Knight point anims are largely unchanged so you can still spin your sword right round baby right round.​
  • Misc Fixes and Tweaks
  • The game should have fewer script crashes, and a few minor gameplay things have happened.​
  • Something to note is a bomb in your pocket will now (rightly) kill you instead of helping you reach new heights. Be advised.​

Build 780 (10/Jun/2013)

Changes from build 762 to 780:

  • Dorms
  • are built for a migrant / worker to live in them. Migrants are now basically a resource which factories work on. One factory requires 2 dorms with migrants in them. Dorms are also spawns. So if you build a dorm on the frontline, somebody can spawn inside it. It has a limit to the number of spawns however, so you must build more for more people to spawn in the area. Dorms also heal like quarters in classic.
  • Research
  • there is one research room per-team. Defend it at all costs. Use [E] to vote on the techs you want to get. Not all of them will be research so make smart decisions! The progression of the tree is a WORK IN PROGRESS! It might change.
  • Factory
  • doesn't require scroll, it just needs tech unlocked in Research Room.
  • Trading posts
  • still remain on the map. You can still buy tech scrolls for gold and put them in research room. This is a secondary route you can take if your team didn't research a certain technology. Prices are much higher, but there is an additional possibility of exchanging wood/stone for gold
  • Warboat
  • is now a moving base. you can spawn in them and change class.
  • Win condition
  • a team loses if their population (migrants + players) goes down to zero and the enemy takes their land. You can see the population counter on HUD and "UNDER ATTACK" when they are on your land.

And many more changes for which there's no public changelog.
