This update introduces Zeno, the 5th missile for the Missile Silo, which homes onto a target, hits it for a massive dose of slow damage, and then leaves lingering slow in the surrounding area. Another major change is an increase in general unit visibility via a few nerfs for area cloakers. As usual, there are a few months of fixes, features and, contrary to the title, performance improvements.


Added Zeno, a homing slow damage missile built in the Missile Silo.

• Has significant range, equal to Quake.
  
• Homes onto its target.
  
• Deals 10k slow damage to a single target.
  
• Interacts with shields similarly to Eos, as 10k slow damage is 3333 damage to a shield.
  
• Leaves a large area of lingering slow damage for 30 seconds.

Many players felt that cloak was a bit too prevalent and that whether to use it lategame wasn't much of a choice. We address this with a few targeted nerfs to area cloak. Most notably, Cornea has a directional cloak field rather than a huge bubble, and larger armies are slower to cloak. The latter is implemented with the new cloak rate mechanic.

• Area cloakers now apply cloak at a set rate, starting with units closest to the centre of the bubble.
  
• Cloak rate is in terms of mass per second, and only spent on units that are ready to cloak.
  
• For reference, Bandit has 90 mass, Lance about 300, Dante about 800, and Detriment about 2400.
  
• Cloak can still be maintained on any number of units.
  
• Units with personal cloak are unaffected. They don't wait to be cloaked, and don't spend cloak rate that could be used on other units. This includes units that cloak while stationary.

Cornea cloaks a much smaller area, but the area can be moved with Fire Special Weapon (D).

• Jamming range 550 -> 600
  
• Cloak field range 550 -> 400
  
• Can shift the centre of its cloak bubble up to 200 elmos away
  
• Has a cloak rate of 1200 mass/s

Iris has a small range reduction and cloaks at a slower rate than Cornea.

• Cloak field range 400 -> 360
  
• Jamming range 400 -> 360
  
• Has a cloak rate of 800 mass/s

Commander Area Cloak loses a similar amount of cloak range and has the same cloak rate.

• Cloak field range 350 -> 320
  
• Jamming range (with cloak field module) 350 -> 320
  
• Has a cloak rate of 800 mass/s

Conjurer is the most efficient cloaker in terms of cloak rate per cost.

• Has a cloak rate of 600 mass/s

Puppy now leaves wrecks and debris when killed, but not when it hits a target. Previously it left nothing.

Imp now only barely "makes cost" against a lone Scorcher.

• Cost 120 -> 125

Snitch costs a bit more to spam.

• Cost 160 -> 170

Cyclops slowbeam had a bug that made it do 3x the intended damage to shields.

• Slowbeam damage to shields 2000 -> 666

Hercules can reach the ground and lift everything.

• Fixed a weapon bug that caused its laser to not reach ground units while cruising.
  
• Can now transport Shogun and Reef.

Advanced Radar is a bit too good after its cost reduction from 500.

• Cost 400 -> 450

• Added Zeno to planet Nataa (the Missile Silo mission).
  
• Tweaked planet Mstaras (the Gunship Factory mission) to be a bit easier on difficulties below Brutal.
  
• Added startboxes for Angel Crossing, Calamity v1.1 and Supreme Crossing V2.
  
• The "Sun, Fog & Water" map tweaking tool now loads its defaults from map settings.
  
• Added shadow density to "Sun, Fog & Water" map tweaking tool.
  
• Added compatibility for more metal layout standards.
  
• Removed map fog by default. This is the type that was visible when zoomed out.
  
• Tweaked the lighting and water settings on a few maps.

• Reordered battles in the multiplayer lobby to put empty autohosts below running games.
  
• Build spacing UI has more options, found under "Settings/Interface/Building Placement".
  
• Added a contrast adaptive sharpening shader. It can be enabled under Settings/Graphics/Effects with "Sharpening".
  
• Added notable death explosion to ingame unit help menu (accessed via space+click).
  
• Added better support for flipping the minimap, which is useful when used with a flipped camera.
  
• Added a widget that displays map info like a label on a painting. Disabled by default.
  
• Fiddled with the way line of sight adds to radar. This unlocks more ways to customise radar coverage.
  
• Tweaked war and peace detection to spend a bit more time playing peace music.
  
• Fixed slight visual misalignment when Missile Silo launches missiles.

• Improved performance of game mechanics that handle orders.
  
• Fixed significant framerate drop (with certain settings) caused by many multi-weapon striders firing at once.
  
• Fixed kicking a spectator sometimes causing a player to resign.
  
• Fixed X-Ray shader issues on some hardware.
  
• Fixed a rare bug with jumpjet behaviour.
  
• Fixed a rare crash in the tab playerlist.
  
• Fixed missing text on shield charge bars.
  
• Blitz description no longer mentions its old EMP death explosion.

Sisypush version 0.6 just released. This build is again only available to testers, but adds some long overdue features and polishes many aspects of the game. There is also a brand-new level.

• Storing level progress now works! (Stores which levels you completed, and your best scores in terms of least steps and least pushes)
  
• Each level now has a unique name
  
• Add UI elements to the pause menu that display the current level's name and number
  
• Add a UI element that displays in-game stats. This displays the number of steps and pushes you have made so far in the current level (can be toggled on or off, is currently off by default)
  
• Add a setting to toggle on or off the in-game stats UI
  
• Change footstep sounds
  
• Add wet footstep sounds when player walks in a river
  
• 'Undo' now also creates a history point in certain cases (to be specific: in case you did not press 'Undo' before, or pressed it before but then pushed something afterwards, in these cases 'Undo' will create a history point, which you can return to by pressing 'Redo')
  
• Add a particle effect when walking on normal ground
  
• Improve 'walking up' and 'walking down' animation
  
• Improve 'pushing up' animation
  
• Add a new level 'Spark'. (Currently this level is positioned at 4-3)

• Canvas textures (i.e. buttons and other UI elements) now use 'nearest' filtering instead of linear filtering, resulting in a sharp UI
  
• Change placement and anchoring of version label in the main menu slightly. It should now be placed correctly regardless of your screen's aspect ratio.

• Fix a bug that lead to a rock in a river being able to crush the player if the player entered the river from left or right
  
• Fix a bug in release builds of the game that that lead to all interactable elements and the player appearing at the center of the screen when using 'Undo' or 'Redo'.
  
• Fix two missing floor tiles in level 1-10 ('Hauling')
