Hey guys, I've got a big patch here today with a focus on building.

You can build temples now!

Greetings, Noble Knights! Here is version 1.47 of Knights of the Chalice 2.

Yay! With this new version, we have a pretty massive expansion of the available character Feats in the game: no less than 40 new unique feats! Many of these feats can be taken by several character classes.

I've also fixed a number of bugs and issues, including a problem with the unlocking of Archmage Difficulty achievements in the Steam and GOG versions.

I've finished implementing all of the feats that I really wanted to add to the game, so now I will be able to focus on the other things mentioned in the last Kickstarter update. I'll post a new Kickstarter update soon with the description of all the new feats.

If you find any bugs, please drop me a line at enquiries@heroicfantasygames.com so that I can fix the game quickly. A saved game would be very useful, too. Thank you!!

Here's the list of changes in version 1.47:

• When you start a new Augury of Chaos game, you will now have the option to skip the Prologue entirely and begin from Chapter 1 straight away.
  
• Fixed bugs preventing the award of Archmage Difficulty achievements in both the Steam version and the GOG version.
  
• Fixed a problem with the Shadow Adept / Shadow Expert / Shadow Master achievements in the GOG version only.
  
• Fixed a bug with characters disappearing when reloading after completing the Vanishing Sword Quest with Goblin companions.
  
• Fixed a bug that occurred when the party leader is a companion that gets removed from the party by a script.
  
• Added some code to accelerate gameplay in combat and elsewhere.
  
• Automatic saves will now be marked as Autosave.
  
• Added the missing Greater Splash enchantments for ranged weapons into the weapon-enchantment interface.
  
• Fixed several issues with the Splash enchantments for ranged weapons (Flaming Splash, Icy Splash, etc).
  
• Changed the button labels in the Module Information screen and in the Module Editor from Maximum Character Level to Maximum Starting Level, and from Minimum Character Level to Minimum Starting Level.
  
• Applying the Shaken condition for a number of rounds will not remove a pre-existing Shaken condition.
  
• Applying the Cowering condition will not remove the Shaken condition.
  
• The Combat Log will now indicate the start of a new round, in red letters.
  
• Fixed issues in the dialogue script of the Werewolf Quest in Augury of Chaos.
  
• Fixed an issue with the display of effect animations (sleeping, fascinated, confusion, etc) for Giant Spiders when displaying creatures using animated sprites.
  
• Added the Wizard feat Improved Firefly Familiar. You must have a Firefly familiar in order to take this feat.
  
• Added two new Cleric feats: Widened Healing and Widened Destruction.
  
• Added three new Bishop feats: Widened Healing And Destruction, Turning Strike and Greater Turning Strike.
  
• Added the Cleric and Bishop feat Fast Touch Domain Powers.
  
• Added the Cleric and Bishop feat Improved Curse. It will reduce the randomness of the effect of the spells Bestow Curse and Mass Bestow Curse, at least during the first round of the effect.
  
• Added the Wizard, Sorcerer and Warlock feat Dispelling Magic Missile to help you get rid of enemy Mirror Images.
  
• Added the Bard feats Improved Songs and Story Teller.
  
• Added the feats Rapid Strike, Melee Touch Magic, Armour Agility and Improved Armour Agility.
  
• I've given the feat Rapid Strike to many monsters in Augury of Chaos and the Tutorial Adventure.
  
• Added the Ranger feats Enhanced Magic Arrow I, Enhanced Magic Arrow II and Improved Snaring Weapon.

• Added the Psionicist, Warlock, Psychic Healer feats Improved Control And Dominate, Greater Control And Dominate, Swift Assimilate and Improved Hail Of Crystals. Actually, the Psionicist already had access to Improved Control And Dominate, but not the other classes.
  
• Added the Psionicist and Psychic Warrior feat Fast Power Drain.
  
• Added the Gladiator, Samurai, Storm Warrior and Psychic Warrior feat Improved Swift Weapon.

• When starting a new game, if one of the party members has enough experience points to level up beyond the maximum starting level, then his or her experience points will be reduced to one point below the amount required to reach the maximum starting level + 1.
  
• Fixed an issue with the headline of the help entries for spells.

Sorry for the late delivery of hotfix information.

# Fixes

Hi people!

Here's the 4th bug fixing patch for the 1.0 release. As usual, it's fixing most of the reported issues and includes a few user requests. A larger update will follow soon, unless enough bug reports pile up to justify another hot-patch.

I will post an article about the 1.0 release, my future plans and everything else in a few days.

People who are in the middle of a game, especially in Story Mode, should pay close attention to this changelog as, when loading your game, some of your production centers might be automatically abandoned and you might want to know why.

Cheers.

• Farmers will no longer try to plant seeds in an outdoor farm if the current weather is damaging the plants (blood rains, acid rains and cold waves), they will continue to care for the rest of the farm, though.
  
• I added a toggle in the Faction menu to globally prevent or allow survivors to extinguish fires on their own (user request; use at your own risks)

• In the production center tab of the faction menu, locations are now sorted alphabetically, and added an indicator to highlight places which are currently under attack.

• Gold Ingots could not be sold to traders. This was silently fixed a few days ago.
  
• A crash when someone is trying to get food, but have a full inventory and can't access any valid depot. They'd normally drop some stuff on the ground, but it could cause a crash instead. This was patched immediately after the bug was reported.
  
• In defensive battles on the world map, it wasn't possible to "[ctrl] + right click" on items to attack them in order to clear a path in an uncooperative building.
  
• The intro sequence in Story Mode would count toward some of the achievements' progress. I didn't reset the achievements, though. If you got them for free, well, good on you :)
  
• The main menu's button to change layer was not updated when events or other menus would move the camera to a different layer.
  
• Going back to the main menu from a story mode save, and then directly launching a new story mode campaign could have negative consequences for the new game, effectively making that second game unplayable. We're getting in super situational bug territory here, but a bug's a bug.
  
• Faction screen wouldn't grey out the button to recall survivors from production centers like the normal menu does when it's under attack
  
• Minor UI glitch which could prevent the "do you want to defend this production menu" from appearing when multiple locations are attacked simultaneously
  
• An issue where one of your production centers would defeat an invader but all the workers would die, only leaving mercenaries. Putting the location is a state where you couldn't evacuate it, but it would still produce resources. They will now properly be abandoned, and you'll be warned when it happens.
  
• Another issue could cause a production center to lose its workers when targeted by another faction's raiding party. Yes, before the actual attack, and yes, it was a nasty one.

Today's update fixes a crash when starting the game with zoom mode enabled.

SHIELD/OXYGEN TOTAL OVERHAUL

• The oxygen timer mechanic has been completely removed from the game.
  
• Instead, the blue bar below health now represents your Shield.
  
• When your Shield energy drops below 10%, your health is reduced when you take a hit.
  
• Enemy Orbs now charge Health and Shield, instead of Health and Oxygen.
  
• You can fully recharge your Shield by purchasing a Power Cell in the shop, or by finding it in a loot crate.
  
• Max health has been reduced to take into account the protection from the Shield.
  
• All oxygen-related Perks have been modified to no longer relate to oxygen. In some cases, Perks have been disabled.
  
• Shield-related Perks are in the works, and will drop in the next release.
  
• The Heal Psionic ability has been replaced by the Dome Psionic ability. This is similar to the previous Lv2 Heal that created an invulnerability dome around the character, but now works across Lv1 to Lv3, with no healing. This change was made to prevent standing around for extended periods of time using Heal until max health is reached.
  
• All oxygen related loot and items have been removed from the game world, inventory and shop interface.
  
• Character stats had to be reworked to remove oxygen related stats. Critical hit probability is now a stat. Oxygen depletion rate no longer exists. It now works as follows:
  - Combat - Increased aiming accuracy. Get more critical hits.
  - Endurance - Increased health. Stagger less when taking hits.
  - Agility - Move faster. Reload faster.
  - Psi - Access more powerful abilities with reduced cooldowns.

Balance

• Due to Critical Hit probability now being a stat, the Critical Hit perk has been renamed to Marksman, and now gives a +1% Critical Hit probability per direct hit.
  
• Added 1 spare life to Hard difficulty, with checkpoints (solo mode).
  
• Doomed mode - dropped first wave total enemies from 12 to 6.
  
• Doomed mode - dropped first wave simultaneous enemies from 4 to 3.
  
• Doomed mode - dropped the spawn rate of the Acid Ants (ranged acid guys).
  
• Reduced the engagement range of the Infected Guard enemies from 6m to 5m.

Fixes

• Don't sell Nano-storage items in Doomed/Escape mode. There is no point, as there is no inventory management.

- Fixed a problem with the corrupted versions of Power Coil and Nullifier not granting the proper amount of maximum charges.

- Fixed a problem with the corrupted version of the Endless Bag not being activated under some circumstances.
