The patch 3629 is now online.
This is the first release candidate: If you see any problem, please report it as soon as possible in the forums and we will try to fix it.
Replays might break during the release candidate period.
<h1>Changelog</h1>
<h2><span style="text-decoration: underline;">FA Game lobby</span></h2>
Changes will come later this month.
<h2><span style="text-decoration: underline;">New feature</span></h2>
SCU presets with already upgraded SCUs buildable from Quantum Gateways (The costs of the upgrades are added to the cost of the SCU base).
<h2><span style="text-decoration: underline;">Bug fixes and small tweaks</span></h2>
<ul>
<li>Fixed an <strong>exploit</strong> that allowed to<strong> duplicate infinite amount of buildings for free</strong> (Drag & dropping when rebuilding from a wreck).</li>
<li><strong>Cybran T2 and T3 Engineers</strong> HP fixed.</li>
<li><strong>Fireball explosion</strong> is now red instead of green.</li>
<li><strong>Cybran SMD</strong> BuildTime fixed.</li>
<li><strong>Czar</strong> central target bone removed to reduce the likelihood of ASFs flying right through the beam and being roasted.</li>
<li><strong>Czar</strong> beam weapon has a 75% Damage reduction against ASFs so they are not insta-killed any more when they do fly right through the beam.</li>
<li><strong>UEF TMD Projectiles</strong> fixed. They were dying too soon to kill Tactical Missiles launched from ACUs - Weapon Unpacks = false (From true).</li>
<li>Several <strong>Beam weapons</strong> - Small improvements from ShadowKnight's mod (Not all) to make them deal damage more "Smoothly" and change targets more efficiently.</li>
<li><strong> Sera T2 Point Defense</strong> - 550 damage (From 660) due to beam weapon changes amounting to a buff (137.5 DPS from 165, but will sweep through several units until it deals its full 550 Damage meaning less overkill).</li>
<li><strong>Tempest</strong> MuzzleVelocity reverted to 28 to prevent it to shoot over small targets like mass extractors.</li>
<li><strong>Firebeetle</strong> TurnRate increased to 160 (From 120) and TurnRadius increased to 4 (From 3) for a small handling improvement.</li>
<li><strong>Rover</strong> BuildRadius = 8 to fix an issue where it would not finish the buildings it started to build.</li>
<li><strong>ASFs</strong> can't shoot Rovers (Prevents them being used to kill Shields and Base Structures late game VS UEF). Special 75% resistance to Czar beam.</li>
<li><strong>ASF Projectiles</strong> <strong>Aeon</strong> and <strong>Seraphim</strong> now shoot 1 projectile instead of 3, and have FiringTolerance = 2 (Don't need to line up totally to fire, the same as the others). <strong>Cybran</strong> shoots 2 instead of 4. DPS is unchanged (This greatly lowers lag caused by large ASF battles).</li>
<li><strong>ASF HP</strong> changed because the projectile adjustments impacted balance. This corrects it again. <strong>UEF</strong> = 1800 (From 1850). <strong>Cybran</strong> = 1725 (From 1700). <strong>Seraphim</strong> = 1775 (From 1800)</li>
<li><strong>Seraphim ASF</strong> TargetCheckInterval adjusted to 0.5 (From 0.3).</li>
<li><strong>Seraphim T2 Artillery</strong> PitchRange = 90 (From 80) to fix it not being able to fire to maximum range.</li>
<li><strong>Cybran Strategic Missile Submarine</strong> Stealth now hides it from Sonar too.</li>
<li><strong>Better animations for walking bots</strong> - Mongoose, Titan, Brick, Aeon Sniperbot, Percival.</li>
<li><strong>Out of fuel</strong> speed penalty reduced to 65% from 75% to increase the possibility of reaching Air Staging when far away (Also, T1 Bombers won't drop two times on the same target due to too low speed).</li>
<li><strong>Cybran T2 Air Support Factory</strong> no longer has a weird colour when zoomed out.</li>
<li><strong>T2 and T3 Engineer</strong> price reduction. T2 = 140 Mass/700 Energy/700 BuildTime (From 160/840/800). T3 = 440 Mass/2200 Energy/2200 BuildTime (From 490/3150/2100).</li>
<li><strong>Seraphim Air Factory</strong> overall Engineer production rate reduced via rolloff time (It is still faster than the original but not crazy fast any more, speed similar to Aeon). They already have the best Bomber and have Fobo on water maps, they don't need to have better Air Factory too.</li>
<li><strong>T1 Bomber drop chance increased</strong> - TurnSpeed and CombatTurnSpeed = 0.75, 0.8 for UEF (From 0.7). LiftFactor = 10 (From 7).</li>
<li><strong> Bombers targeting a wreck</strong> are no longer permanently prevented from firing (By Brute51).</li>
<li><strong>Janus</strong> won't scorch the earth any more when bombing a Shield.</li>
<li><strong>Sparky</strong> added to Air and Naval factories.</li>
<li><strong>Teleport</strong> has brand new visual and audio effects (By Brute 51).</li>
<li><strong>Teleportation</strong> now deals only 100 Damage to nearby Units and Structures in a small radius (Doesn't kill T1 Engineers any more).</li>
<li><strong>Shield Stacking</strong> Damage overflow and transfer refactored (By Brute51) to prevent <strong>Resonance Effect</strong> (First Shields hit no longer take more Damages than the Damage dealt by the weapon in the first place). Overlapping Damage dealt = 15%.</li>
<li><strong>Cybran build drone bug/exploit fixed</strong> (By Brute51).</li>
<li>DifferentialUpgradeCostCalculation = true, in units/ZAB9602/ZAB9602_unit.bp</li>

<li><strong>Aurora</strong>
<ul>
<li>Speed = 2.9 (From 3.1) ;</li>
<li>FiringRandomnessWhileMoving = 0.6 (From 0). It's a very small randomness and only when the Auroras move. They will still hit most of the time but this gives a chance for other tanks to survive longer.

<li>FiringRandomnessWhileMoving = 0.6 (from 0.8) because Speed is reduced greatly</li>
</ul>
</li>
</ul>
<h4><strong><span style="text-decoration: underline;">SCUs</span></strong></h4>
<ul>
<li><strong>Veterancy</strong> adjusted to 25/50/75/100/125 (From 20/50/90/140/200)</li>
<li><strong>SCU Engineering Upgrade</strong> cost = 800 Mass (From 1000). BuildTime = 4200 (From 5040). Also fixes Aeon SCU having the wrong cost</li>

<ul>
<li> <strong>Scorcher</strong> (UEF T1 Bomber)
<ul>
<li>4 Bombs with 3 AOE (Instead of 5 with 2.5 AOE)</li>
<li>Bombs are more spread out, and each deals 47.5 Damage instantly + 10*4 = 40 damages over 1.5 seconds = 350 total (It will never deal 350 Damage except on Factories. The maximum amount on Units and small Structures is 267.5)</li>

<li>BreakOffDistance = 26 (From 18)</li>

</ul>
</li>
<li><strong>Seraphim Fighter/Bomber</strong>
<ul>
<li>Ground weapon Range = 60 (From 45).</li>

</ul>
</li>
<li><strong>Corsair</strong>
<ul>
<li>Anti-Ground weapon Range = 40 (From 45) so that it doesn't completely out-range Mobile Flack (No longer able to kill them without suffering any damage)</li>
</ul>
</li>
</ul>
<h4><span style="text-decoration: underline;"><strong>T3 Air </strong></span></h4>
<ul>

<h4><span style="text-decoration: underline;"><strong>T3 Navy</strong></span></h4>
<ul>
<li><strong>T3 Strategic Missile Submarines</strong>
<ul>
<li>Tactical Missile Range = 256 (From 175). This is the same as a TML. This will expand the sniping potential of these units.</li>
<li>Mass = 9000 (From 10000). This is the same as the Seraphim Battleship</li>
<li>Nuke inner ring Damage = 22000 (From 25000)</li>
<li>Nuke outer ring Damage = 3000 (From 500). This means units which escape the inner ring take some real Damage (500 is nothing for Naval units)</li>
</ul>
</li>
<li><strong> Seraphim T3 Sub</strong>
<ul>
<li>SizeY = 0.9 (From 0.8). This is a slightly higher hitbox to ensure Riptides and other surface weapons can hit them normally while they are surfaced.</li>
<li>Range = 65 (From 70)</li>
<li>AA DPS = 200 (From 240)</li>
<li>Health = 4000 (From 4500)</li>
</ul>
</li>
<li><strong>Cybran and Seraphim Aircraft Carriers</strong> can now build Gunships and regular Bombers.</li>
</ul>
<h4><span style="text-decoration: underline;"><strong>T4 Navy</strong></span></h4>

<li>Damage = 350 (From 235)</li>
<li>RateOfFire = 0.2 (From 0.25)</li>
<li>DPS = 420 (From 352)</li>
</ul>
</li>
<li>2 Atlantis and their equivalent mass cost in T3 Seraphim subs still win convincingly, but the Tempest can now put up a fight even when submerged.</li>
</ul>

<li>firingrandomness while moving = 0.6 (from 0). It's a very small randomness and only when the auroras move, they will still hit most of the time but this gives a chance to tanks to survive longer.

<li><strong>t3 strategic subs</strong> : range of tac missiles = 256 (from 175) = same as a land tactical missile. This will expand the sniping potential of these units
