|
Server Setup:
|
|
|
|
Provided in this folder is a file named ServerControl.cs. Inside you will find many configurable
|
|
objects to modify server settings. For starters, set the host GUID to your GUID. To Do so,
|
|
start up the dedicated server. Join it, once in game, type ListGUIDS(); in the server console
|
|
to obtain your GUID. Then modify the line: $TWM2::HostGUID = "SetMeUp";, to match your GUID.
|
|
|
|
TWM2 Servers:
|
|
|
|
TWM2 uses a inter-server connectivity system known as PGD Connect. This system will allow users who
|
|
play TWM2 to transfer their rank/progression as well as load in buildings created in other servers
|
|
in your server. While PGD Connect itself is manditory across all TWM2 servers, saving information is
|
|
only permitted in what we designate as a "Core Server". This requires the server host to abide by the
|
|
TWM2 PGD Connect Core rules established by Phantom139. If you are interested in hosting a server with
|
|
this level of authority, please contact Phantom139 on the PGD Forums, or by email.

MOD DEVELOPMENT HISTORY (GIT VERSIONS):
|
|
|
|
PLEASE NOTE: I've moved all old changelogs into the version_history folder. This file will now only track the current update's changes
|
|
|
|
3.91 -> 3.92 (In Progress):
|
|
* Zombie Changes
|
|
* Global
|
|
* Massive "spring cleaning" of the zombie code files, fixing a bunch of bad coding practices and a few logic errors.
|
|
* Redid the zombie targeting and movement methods to make them much "smoother"
|
|
* Scaled down zombie movement times on some types to smooth movement
|
|
* To compensate for speed, these zombies saw a reduction of total speed to match the factor
|
|
* This should result in smoother looking movement at the same speed
|
|
* Moved all functioning into a core control script, added additional modifiers and flags to grant more customizability to zombies
|
|
* **WARNING: Only specific zombies are functional at this moment in time**
|
|
* Ravager
|
|
* Ravagers will now perform ambush style attacks on targets, making them much more challenging
|
|
* Increased the XP reward from killing ravager zombies
|
|
* Lord
|
|
* Modified the behavior of zombie lords
|
|
* Replaced the acid cannon with an anti-tank photon cannon
|
|
* Zombie lords will now preferential target enemy ground armor before infantry, and engage their photon cannon on targets
|
|
* Zombie lords can now activate a defensive barrier to protect themselves and allies from damage temporarily... enjoy this new rage inducing mechanic :)
|
|
* Air Rapier
|
|
* Modified the damage scalar of missiles to be a OHK on rapier zombies
|
|
* Added Boss Proficiency
|
|
* Hidden challenges embedded in boss fights that award additional experience for completing tough feats
|
|
* For example: Defeat the shade lord without dying by the elemental shades
|
|
* Living World Mode
|
|
* Added a new option for admins to toggle (Living World) in the Construction Mode. Players will be able to vote toggle this option
|
|
* This aspect of the update will be coming soon...
|
|
* Challenges / Medals
|
|
* All Challenges and Medals are now persistent, such that progress is not lost through officer promotion
|
|
* Go get those bronze, silver, gold, and titan commendations!!!
|
|
* Boss Balancing / Updates:
|
|
* All Bosses
|
|
* Testing a new difficulty system
|
|
* Boss health damage will now scale to the number of players in the game
|
|
* Boss attack damage also now scales to the number of players in the game
|
|
* NOTE: Some attacks are still designated OHK attacks and will not be affected
|
|
* This will allow solo players a fighting chance to actually fight against the bosses
|
|
* For the time being, this change will only apply to the Lord Yvex fight, if testing goes well, I will adapt to other bosses
|
|
* Colonel Windshear
|
|
* Addressed a silly bug with the Colonel Windshear fight that caused the platform turrets to be on a different team than the gunship itself
|
|
* This will address the following two problems:
|
|
* 1. Turrets targeting the gunship allies
|
|
* 2. Gunship allies targeting the boss
|
|
* Colonel Windshear can now call for additional air support during the fight
|
|
* Stormrider
|
|
* Re-did his ground detection script to "hopefully" eradicate those funny moments when he suicide bombs the ground, ending the fight
|
|
* Lord Vardison
|
|
* Fixed an erraneous text prompt that would appear when the shadow rift detonated outside of WTF difficulty stating vardison had healed when in fact he did not
|
|
* Gameplay Changes
|
|
* The Helljump 'Oh Lordy' modifier has been changed to 'Reduces the cooldown time of the Zombie Lord's Photon Cannon by 50%'.
|
|
* General Bug Fixes
|
|
* Addressed the issue when gaining more than 1 million EXP that would result in your total EXP being reset by the difference between 1 million exp and your current exp. |
