Version 6.0
Finally finished version 6.0. Thanks big time to William Shakesman. Pretty sure there are no more major bugs in Panama like main characters cloning themselves or broken objectives. I still need to balance things and add a few more secrets and features.

I also balanced the Baron AR and Harbinger Sniper a bit.

Version 6.0 Tomorrow
I've already fixed the last major bugs a few days ago and uploaded them. Then I got the flu and couldn't get out of bed for 3 days. i'll do a few more things tomorrow and then list all the changed from the last week.

But don't worry about starting a game right now. It's no big problem.

Panama Fixes, Major Patch Monday
Thanks to a couple people (and I forgot your Steam names), I fixed a couple of major script bugs in Panama. One of them allowed you to completely skip the Chapter 2 finale and jump straight to Ch. 3, and that's not cool. I will post a major update on Monday since I don't have to work. Thank God for American imperialism.

Brigand: Panama DLC is Working
Two weeks after the expected launch date, Brigand: Panama is up on Steam. There will probably be a couple of logistical script bugs because I do not want to limit player freedom, and there's always something people do on Youtube videos or Steam discussions that I would never have thought of.

Panama is an entirely new story with a new player character -- it doesn't change the original story at all, so start a new game and select the "Brigand - Panama" story.

It's about half the length of Oaxaca, but it's hard right from the beginning. Also, there are lots of new features, such as a woodcraft ability that lets you craft bamboo into throwing spears, smoking pipes, and fishing rods. There are also traps. A whole poopoo platter of traps. And a lot more items, baddies, and characters. There will be an update next weekend for sure.

Thanks to the Steam Team for being patient with my dumb ass.

Also, thanks to MAAU for the serious shout-out, even though I don't understand a word of it:

Version 5.9
I fixed a few bugs that would be spoilers if I posted them, thanks big-time to megacdman. But most importantly, you can now shove your teammates out of your way if you walk into them and the Team Command is not set to Hold. If you want the complete list, check the Updates.txt file in the game folder.

PANAMA EXPANSION UPDATE:

If you really want to play the Panama expansion right now, you can get it on itch.io and move it to Steam's game folder (achievements work if Steam is open): https://blancaster45.itch.io/

You can also get improved character skins on itch, which I can't do here because the DarkBASIC Pro Steam DLL won't allow Steam Workshop commands. But if there's enough user-made content and I figure out the Steam DLC, I'll just make a free community DLC pack on Steam. This will be much later.

If the Panama DLC doesn't work by next weekend I have another game plan, which will mean less money for me and the 12 people who bought it will need a refund. But just wait until next weekend. Aaand, that's the plan for now.

Version 5.8
Panama doesn't work yet, but it will soon, and all Steam execs will owe me a bottle for finding a Steam bug, I swear to Satan.

Here is the new Brigand: Oaxaca version.

SOURCE CODE:
-Fixed bug that made player taking poison damage from self-inflicted hunger start attacking player faction.
-Obtainables with target type set to "optional" no longer appear in sentients' hands.

SCRIPTS:
-Fixed Cyber Demon (AARFY) footstep sounds (MOV script).
-Fixed bug with La Mordida ability for both Oaxaca and Panama stories.
-Fixed a rare bug that let Officer Rolland train you to max skills.
-Increased bed distance from hostiles from 600 to 800.

STORY FILE: (requires starting a new game)
-Increased the Bartender's Software skill from 0 to 25 (for player training).
-Added two boomprill chems and a methane grenade to the Topo Tracks (for character balancing).
-Added some chems to Marvin's labs.

Panama Not Working Yet
You can buy Panama right now, but it's not working yet. There should be a 3rd story file, but no files are downloading. I am waiting for Steam's reply.

Hopefully I can revert it back to "Coming Soon" but it takes a bit.

EDIT AGAIN: Also, Panama will be an entirely new story with a new player character, so you won't be missing anything by playing through the original.

Version 5.7, Huge Bug Fix
I tried improving the AI a bit for the jungle with lots of cones, and I ended up screwing up the AI for the original Oaxaca story. It should all be fixed now, along with some other updates. Expect Brigand: Panama October 17th (I already told Steam, no bullshit).

Complete list of fixes:

SOURCE CODE:
-Fixed major bug with AI climbing prefab objects.
-Fixed problem with "if_outside" boolean script command.
-Dead sentient objects now have concealed effect turned off immediately.
-Added message when reloading about not having the required ammo.
-Clarified some GUI world editor messages.

SCRIPTS:
-Fixed problem with loa vanishing in sunlight or when possession ends.

STORY FILE: (requires starting a new game)
-Fixed polygon collision for loose dirt and tire objects.

Version 5.6 + Hi-Res Skin Patch
This Brigand update fixes a couple AI issues. There was a problem with AI using med kits because the targeting was optional, so now they can use them (on themselves). Also, AI used to run up steep rocks and if they were killed their corpse would be stuck in the air, which just looked ugly. That's been fixed for the most part. Also fixed a bug where the big splash sound was almost inaudible and clarified some dialogue. You can look at the complete list of fixes in the text file.

The stable version of Panama will be out in mid-October, hopefully with voice acting, Steam achievements, and minimal bugs.

For now I want to direct your attention to some user-made content thanks to Jack Mangano (twitter.com/Jack_Mangano). It's a patch that increases and improves the resolution for all character skins, which you can download from the itch.io page for now. I'll put it up on Steam when Panama comes out and I figure out how to upload extra content.

If you want the new character skins or the Panama Beta, here is the link for itch.io: https://blancaster45.itch.io/
