We’ve fixed the most annoying multiplayer bugs and critical issues like display interaction troubles and aggressive third party applications affects. There are still known multiplayer issues left and planned to be resolved in the nearest patch.
Display
- Added support for Hi-Res displays with use of DPI/Scale over 100%, now game properly detects each display DPI and changes its view depending on user display settings.
- Fixed alt+tab issues, when game window behaviour not as player expected.
- Added proper mouse clamping to window borders. It is turned on when player starts match and turns off in menus or while loading.
- Now switching between display modes work as expected: full screen, windowed, windowed full screen.
Multiplayer
- Game start should now work properly, without disconnects, “peasant death” and defeat/victory messages.
- Multiplayer match can now proceed after room master defeat (but until he stays in the game, this issue solving is still in progress).
- Players now properly receive win/lose messages corresponding with real situation (but still, until room master stays in the game).
- Removed mislead “disconnect” message while playing was proper. It was shown in some cases at game start, at game end, and when room master left the game.
