Changelog

0.2.2#

September 19th 2025

• (BREAKING) Refactored damage to use an instanced DamageFormat object so that it is easier to reimplement and reuse similar behaviours and allows future additions to be usable by all emitters. Damage numbers will need to be refactored to the new system. The old values have been left as visible only in the asset.

• Added box shape for volume emitters

• Added new meshes and animations for Beam Rifle and Rocket Launcher. Also started a new WIP Rocket Launcher weapon.

• Added test level for split screen support

• Added first pass for SplineMeshComponent based projectile trails

• Improved hit redirections for projectiles

• Automatically compiling Mutable object when displayed in the viewport without being compiled

• Fixed the weapon asset pawn T-Posing if the pawn blueprint is compiled

• Fixed spread and jitter being applied as integers rather than floats, causing low values to be ignored
