Hello Executives, just a small patch today just to help smooth out gameplay a little which includes:
- Added pause button to options menu, also 'P' pauses game.
- Group selecting units now uses CTRL and not Shift.
- Attack and Guard commands now work when you click on units.
- Version control has been added for multiplayer games so you cant accidently join a game of a different version.
I am currently working on a guide to help explain some of the basics of the game just in case you prefer reading rather then watching the in game tutorial videos.
I am also working on getting the ExecuTrons out too so you can enjoy some games with them. They are going to take a lot of work getting them all balanced so may do some open beta testing.
In case you missed the memo, an ExecuTron is a player controlled FPS only unit you can play as while the CEO builds and controls the army. If you explode while being an ExecuTron you will simply be rebuilt back at the HQ to fight another day.
The current idea is to have the CEO and up to 4 ExecuTrons can join him in helping to defeat the other CEO's who can also have up to 4 ExecuTrons.
I am also setting it up so that you can join the AI CEO too, so if you just fancy shooting stuff then you can leave it up to the AI to build your base.
When joining an ExecuTron game you will only be able to do so at the beginning when it is being setup, no joining mid game.
Cheers
Rob
