This hot fix addresses several issues that have been reported, along with a lot of gameplay changes to Sweet Tooth.
Minigolf - Sweet Tooth Changes
- Sweet Tooth: Reduced contrast of Sweet Tooth’s boost tracks to be less visually intense
- Sweet Tooth - Hole 3: Made the back area less punishing by adding a small area behind it, rather than players going out of bounds. This area will be connected to pipes that travel to the other areas
- Sweet Tooth - Hole 5: Failing the jump with the swinging candy cane at the end will no longer lead to an out-of-bounds. Instead, you drop down into another area
- Sweet Tooth - Hole 6: Made the moving wall less punishing by adding a small area behind it, rather than players going out of bounds.
- Sweet Tooth - Hole 6: Added a fade wall to the pit so players will be able to see properly
- Sweet Tooth - Hole 7: Made the “roulette wheel” fail holes less punishing by sending players back to the starting area instead of dumping them in the chocolate
- Sweet Tooth - Hole 9: Adjusted the zig-zag section so it’s easier for people who go down that path to get a birdie
- Sweet Tooth - Hole 9: The curve right after the moving wall has been moved back a little bit so that players will no longer stop halfway when they hit the block sticking out
- Sweet Tooth - Hole 13: Improved the pipe cameras
- Sweet Tooth - Hole 13: In the large circular area, the side routes are easier and less frustrating to cross by moving them backwards slightly. This ensures that even players who are traveling “with” the wall will no longer fall out-of-bounds at the gap
- Sweet Tooth - Hole 13: For the back area, an extra barrier was added to add an additional way of getting into the hole
- Sweet Tooth - Hole 18: Removed the new spline at the end and brought back the original booster movement
Changes
- Improved condo load in (large condos load in duration from 40 seconds to about 5-10 seconds)
- Improved canvas image download & load in
- Added daily server restart countdown notices (30 minutes before, 15 minutes before, 5 minutes before, and 1 minute before)
- Increased FPS smoothing cap from 120 to unlimited
- Updated main menu backgrounds
- Little Crusaders - Knightsend-by-Sea: Optimized CPU usage
- Little Crusaders - Knightsend-by-Sea: Removed lightmass AO to make the map visually consistent with other LC maps
- Zombie Massacre - Gasoline: The truck now can be blown up
