Gameplay Additions
Gameplay Updates
New Level Editor Features
- In the Theme editor, it is now possible to define at what layer the cutscenes will be drawn. This allows for cool effects with foreground elements being drawn in front of cutscene elements.
Misc
- Bubbles no longer move at all during dying animation.
- Blocks with fire-on-death-by-adjacent-chain behavior (ice, fire, crystallizer, mainly) that affect adjacent blocsk now apply that behavior more consistently when they are both being cleared by adjacent chain AND adjacent to another such block that is firing its behavior. Now the adjacent-chain-clear has priority so those gray-area blocks will now all activate and clear rather than be affected by another activation and perhaps not clear (or perhaps get crystallized itself, etc).
Bugfixes
- In previous versions, you could not use items on remote wells during network play. Fixed.
- Previously, cutscenes would fail silently if they could not open. Now an error message is displayed temporarily onscreen.
- Weather effects are now drawn in front of cutscene elements (aside from text), as you would expect.
- Fixed some bugs with premature game overs when the entire board was under water, and with blocks hitting a rising stack and being pushed above the board.
