Overview
========
In this update we bring 2 new maps (one is replaced), rework an old map, bring massive performance benefits, improved the AI to give us more opportunities with maps in the future and done some great work to enable us to create maps faster.
New maps
========
First up we have Desert 6 which is a recommended 1-3 player map. For this map we reworked the AI pathing to enable us to have maps whereby the enemies cross over on the same lane. This makes for a so far unique challenge in AegisM and is quite forgiving, therefore we have made it the default map - a change from Forest 4.
Next up, we have replaced Desert 1. Historically Desert 1 was hardly ever played, it was an early experiment for us which told us a lot about what players enjoy. Therefore we have removed it from the game and introduced a brand new Desert 1 map which can be enjoyed by many. This map is recommended for 2-3 players.
Performance
==========
A lot has been done in the past in regards to performance but in this update a lot of old code has been reworked and has made things a lot more efficient. We have seen 3 player games at over 17,000 kills still pulling over 100fps! This was absolutely unthinkable prior to this update so hopefully you can feel the difference with this update.
Forest 4
=======
Due to the AI work that has been carried out in this patch, Forest 4 now plays slightly different and is faster than before. Prior to this update it would only spawn one enemy in a choice of one of three lanes, whereas now, if a map has three lanes then there will be three enemies spawn at once. This is true of all maps going forward - an enemy will spawn in each lane, consistently. This now enables Forest 4 scores to go much higher than ever before so we do not need to clear any scores for this map as they will naturally progress over time.
Conclusion
=========
This is a huge update that brings some fresh ideas to explore and experiment with. As always, we have huge ambitions for the game going forward and updates will continue to fly in as we constantly look to improve the game.
Enjoy!
