Bugfixes

  • Fixed a bug where using the 2nd-keyboard direction-drag would get stuck in drag mode.
    • Thanks to Maruten for reporting.
  • Fixed a bug in the last few versions that could cause uv textures to become accidentally flipped.
    • Thanks to Echo35 for reporting.
  • Put in some much more lenient error trapping and handling that now will no longer kill the game's execution when it doesn't have to. This was another thing that we'd later discovered as part of our AI War conversion to Unity, and now it's included on Tidalis, as well. This should avoid a whole host of kinds of problems, but most specifically for the moment it should avoid issues with missing/disabled input devices, etc.
    • Thanks to Echo35 for reporting.
  • The new super-paranoid methods for writing data (including errors) to the disk have now been ported from AI War to Tidalis. These should prevent any cascades from errors when the disk can't be written to for whatever reason.
  • Fixed a bug where when music tracks were switched-between too quickly after having started (as sometimes happened in multiplayer co-op), an error was thrown. This is doubly fixed, because on the one hand it no longer throws the error, but on the other hand even if it were to, that error would now just be logged as an ErrorsReportedByEngine.txt and would in no way impact the running state of the game.
    • Thanks to Spikey00 and Valeroth for reporting.
