Am I understanding invisibilty wrong? Assassin suit has 22/25. I fire at enemy from greater range and he just retaliates back as if the unit was visible. Shouldn't the unit be invisible from range greater than those numbers?

Hey Dioxine, do you remember what you fixed? I'd like to know so I can eventually fix that too.
Thanks.

Well I changed the armor values on these ships, then I fixed these values because I forgot about changing values on the roof; so probably you don't have to fix anything.

Assassin suit has no invisibility nor camo, tho...

Eh, don't know why I've understood Inv. 22/25 as invisibility :/

Do you mean progression? Because only thing I connect with possession is the doom faction.

Possession is the mods name for the vanilla mind control action.

So, what happens with Sandbags now? Can you still get them somehow? What happens if your save before updating still has them somewhere?

New games, and those game that have yet to reach them will no longer have access to them. If you already have it enjoy the imbalance.

Hello, the 0.99J8 is mostly a balance/fix update. A very little sidenote: since ol' revolver and six shooter are really similar (only accuracy differences) may the s-shoter be replaced by another type of pistol? These are 2 similar weapons both avaiable atbthe start, in see no reason in that  :-\

I haven't been playing.  What are, or were, sandbags?

It was a very heavy protective gear (150 "weight" units) that halved piercing, laser and plasma damage. Pretty usefull on cars and tanks, but could be overused by normal gals, becouse TU penalty applies only after starting turn with additional weight.

yeah bolting decent resist on lower tier gal armors unfortunately trivialized alot of foes. Chainmail/tac+sand bag, pushed you out of range of almost all common weapons. And also almost assured survival against alot of higher end stuff.

After this update, can you still get sandbags from other sources?

The Six Shooter also reloads a lot faster than the 'Ol Revolver.
