Hey all,
A new version of Tanky-Tank has been released! School starts for me on
Monday and so this will likely be the last release until after the
semester. I didn't get to as much as I wanted, but the list still adds
up to a pretty good release:
+ Powerup tracking indicators along the top of the screen show how
much time until a powerup expires.
+ Little +1 text indicators appear whenever you gain or lose points.
+ In games with a time limit, the time remaining is now shown above
the player's points in the lower-right corner.
+ The location of the Juggernaut is now always shown on the minimap.
+ Improved spawning logic that should make disastrous spawns less
likely.
+ Removed minelayer from Halftrack and replaced it with a rocket
booster.
+ Laser Tank's cursor-seeking missiles have been replaced with heat-
seeking sidewinders.
+ Significantly reduced the physics of the Siege Tank's siege cannon.
+ Improved powerup graphics.
+ Improved armor powerup effect.
+ Improved tank death sound effects.
+ Higher-resolution program icon.
+ A.I. should now realize when it gets stuck and try to unstick
itself.
+ Music and voice for Mac & Linux versions.
+ Fixed the "warp speed" siege tank bug.
+ Fixed bug where Tanky-Tank would crash when run on a computer with
no sound drivers.
+ Fixed bug that made Tanky-Town map crash when played.
+ On Mac, all Ctrl+____ hotkeys have been changed to Command+____
hotkeys.
+ You can now use 1, 2, 3, 4, etc... hotkeys to select a team instead
of using the dropdown box.
+ Significantly reduced install times on some computers without
the .Net Framework already installed.
+ Some minor font and user interface graphics glitches have been
fixed.
