| Critical Bug Fixes And Code Changes - V 1.3.5 | 2024-12-13 | Hello everyone and Merry Christmas! We have a patch here for the holidays. Note that post new year will be a large content update. We wanted to get this patch out for the holidays since some pretty critical bugs have been fixed. -Critical bug fixed which caused units to disappear when using multiple armies of the same mod unit in one battle. -Another critical bug fixed which caused GPU memory leaks when exiting back to main menu after battle. Often GPU memory remained after battle, this was a combination of chain reaction errors and a Unity engine bug. -Big improvements to hit boxes when fighting as a possessed unit. -Added inverse kinematics |

| Hotfix For Workshop Mods | 2023-06-07 | We created a hotfix in attempt to solve some of the issues users are having. UPDATE: Since this hotfix we have been working on a new fix Incoming tonight or early tomorrow. We have discovered the cause for strange scaling of mod units as well as other related issues. It appears it is caused by how decimal numbers are handled in different regions. We are also working hard to solve the issue of mods not showing up. -Some efforts were made to attempt fix the issue where no mods show up. (We were unable to replicate the issues here, so it's all guess work on our end) -Error messages added to game initialization to help catch issues with mods, or |

| Mod Support Drops Late Next Week! (Postponed!) | 2023-05-19 | Update: Postponed To Next Week!

The update unfortunately will be postponed to sometime early next week, we will be working hard to identify the bug. It's very difficult since it only happens in finalized builds of the game. Sorry everyone! Happy weekend everyone! We apologize for our silence, but development of mod support got a little complicated, so we were unable to estimate accurate release dates. Well it's finally in the testing stages and we can confirm that the first mod support update will arrive next week! This |
| Auto LOD Generation In Character Mods! - Mod News | 2023-02-14 | Hello everyone. We wanted to give modders a sneak peak into progress of mod support for characters. In UEBS1 LODs(Level of detail) and polygon optimization was completely up to the modder making the character. This was problematic for many users since many people do not have access to the tools required, or the experience required. Great news! Modded characters are now completely automatically optimized procedurally in game. not only does the system automatically crunch and remove polygons for distant characters, but it's even smart enough to identify objects (such as weapons and shields) that can be easily turned into sprites to ensure those |
