CIU version 155

In Firework Display, some chickens like Berserk / Assassin Chicks when flying around or the Balloon Chicken falling down slowly while the other chickens have already fell outside of the bound, it will suddenly disappear.

Somehow i’m able to shoot BACKWARDS

Maybe it was glitch

That’s why he’s reporting it.

Which wave where this bug happened? Maybe you were shooting when the ship was turning.

it is a very rare buggy case though… Does this happens on projectile weapons only?

We’re still waiting for iA to fix multiplayer

Random idea: Bosses can have their own quips like when the player talks, but they would have a clucking sound instead of beeping.

I feel like the current version of Bar Chart is kinda extreme… Could the wave be zoomed-out to ensure that the gap between 2 adjacent lasers has a length of (nearly) x2 the width of Heavy Bomber?

I wonder, what will could be a new feature in next version?

If I make the barriers indestructible, they would interfere with killing the enemies. And due to the random layout, it’s possible that some barriers will spawn out of reach. I think we should just accept that Clean Sweep is very hard to get on this wave.

It’s already on, but as I said above, some gears may spawn off-screen. I’ve made a change in v.156 that should prevent this in 99% of the cases, however.

Out of all the waves, this was the hardest wave to design, mainly because the fish barriers had to be manually (programmatically, not visually) placed/rotated/bent. I don’t really feel like going through the same process again for smaller fish. But I’ll see what I can do.

It won’t be possible to update within June. So Summer will be extended to include July this year.

Looking at the original CI2 code, asteroids bounce indefinitely. Exactly in which version did they only bounce 10 times?

It can’t. Bubbles interfere.

Np. Enemies can only come from above relatively slowly.

That would still not solve the problem of decreasing it again when you are on mobile. Why do you require such a large difference between hosted players on mobile vs PC anyway?

Correct. Options menu is completely separate. The other menus are overlaid on top of the galaxy.

There is a hard limit of spacecraft that will be shown per “sector”. If this limit is exceeded, then only the most recently active players will be shown. This player has probably been inactive long enough to drop off the bottom of the visible list. Adding them as a contact overrides this optimization and the player becomes visible.

I’m aware of this bug. When turning degrees 180 exactly, sometimes due to numerical imprecision the server will turn clockwise, but the client anti-clockwise. No fix yet.

Okay so…

Make gear shaped barriers indestructible only at the sides, keep the inners destructible

(Hope it helps in some cases)

have a small question that pops off in my head: if a wave have a “barrier” clean sweep bonus, it still only counts chicken per unit, and not including the barriers, right?

Yes, it works

Hmm… could work. Changed in v.156 :medal_sports: Idea

There is only one kind of “Clean Sweep” bonus. To get it, you must kill all enemies and all destructible barriers (if any exist).
