FAZ R5: Difference between revisions

Revision as of 19:04, 2 October 2008

R5 is currently in Public Beta testing (Aug 2008). Check out the Development forum for more information, in particular this thread.

There is a new entry under <Esc> Game Bandwidth (w0dk4)
With these options: Dial-Up (33k), (56k), Broadband (128k), (512k), (>1mbit)

The above settings control how much DATA YOUR CLIENT RECEIVES from the server (not sends).

It ONLY comes into play in busy (crowded) sectors by sending updates for ships that would not have made the 'cut off' at a lower setting.
F5 Investment panel improved (KGJV)
- Tech being invested now shows time remaining
- There is a checkbox to hide completed tech
- There is a checkbox to show unavailable tech, and what is required to make it available
Multi-team alliances can be set by the Game Controller (KGJV)
Graphics engine upgraded to DX 9.

Fixed a bug caused by R4 which caused cons to dodge missiles when lining up at a rock (dogbones)
Fixed a bug in Experimental mode which disallowed escape pods.
2 server crash issues fixed.
