Patch Notes

• Added procedural Wall-Climbing/Ledge-Hanging. You can grab onto the wall and move freely - even around edges. As our maps contain complex geometry it may not work perfectly yet for some objects, but we will keep on improving that.
  
• Counter-Strafing is now possible (Holding down A and D simultaneously now will make the player stop instead of moving in one of those directions randomly). We needed to “reset” movement Input bindings for W/A/S/D to make that work, so if you had non-default bindings for moving, you will need to rebind those again.
  
• Re-worked Mantling, making it more consistent and trying to keep Player-Momentum.
  
• Players will now automatically try to mantle in Air when pressing W / having a forward input.
  
• Added a “Smooth-step” for “smaller” ledges, making it easier to navigate through uneven territory / areas with lots of small edges.
  
• Added momentum based Sliding (making sudden turns while moving and trying to slide will sometimes just make the player crouch, we are aware of that and will improve that)
  
• The Action Roll isn’t a standalone ability anymore. When having enough speed while Sliding, players will automatically perform the Action Roll when trying to jump.
  
• While performing the Action Roll, players are now able to tilt the direction and their momentum sideways.
  
• The Grapple Gun is now a “One-Click-Ability” and not an Item you need to pull out first.
  
• The Grapple Gun cooldown is now based on the actual traveled distance.
  
• Generally reworked the Grapple Gun, aiming to make it easier to actually get onto ledges / get to places where you are grappling too.
  
• While waiting for the Grapple to hook onto an object, you are now free to run and jump around.
  
• You can now grapple onto Moving objects (including other players)
  
• Added a small Input-Buffer for jumping which allows for easier and more consistent “Bunnyhopping” (changing “side” momentum while in a bunnyhopp is pretty hard at the moment but we are planning to change that)
  
• You can now attach everywhere on a Zipline. While on a Zipline you are now able to do pretty much anything (shooting, ADS, reloading, melee, etc.)
  
• Added a small Coyote-Time (players can still jump after for a small duration after running of a ledge and are already in the air)
  

• We basically re-worked the majority of Player-Actions (Shooting, ADS, Reloading, Parachute, Parachute-Boost, Melee, Consumables, etc.) and made it more “ping-friendly”. That will allow players with a worse ping to still have a nice Game-experience. Some actions (like looting or switching weapons) are still influenced by ping.
  
• A big part of reworking the Player-Abilities was to change the way how different Actions interacted with each other. Before, for many Actions (like reviving) you first had to manually cancel the revive before being able to start shooting/ADSing/moving etc. Now, Player-Actions will cancel other ongoing actions automatically. Generally, this should lead to a much smoother and less frustrating game-experience.
