ZeroK: Zero-K v0.8.11

From ZeroK: link to original post

Nothing fancy in this version, just a generally improved experience.

Design:

• Made some tweaks that should hopefully improve vehicle movement
• Commanders of disconnected people spawn at 30s instead of 2 minutes
• Bad target category improvements for Dominatrix and Reaper
• Fixed shipyard footprint etc. issues
• Chicken: changed some tooltips; added a new supporter chicken; made queen health scale with arrival time; added tech time floor
• Removed reload bonus with xp.
• Double commander recipient in planetwars now also has double storage. This is to prevent excess at the start of the game.
• Added target setting on the move functionality. It can be completely controlled with hotkeys but by default it will keep a unit's target when an explicit attack command is cancelled by a move command.

Simplified armour system:

• Razor's Kiss damage reduction 0.2 -> 0.25
• Pitbull damage reduction 0.15 -> 0.25
• Pitbull health 2250 -> 3000 to compensate

All armoured units now have 0.25 damage reduction. Crabe is the exception with 0.33.


Interface:

• Nano turret added to Unit AI -> Initial States menu under Static.
• Changed style of terraform icons.

Balance:

• Krow bomb reload time 20s -> 30s
• Hammer projectile even slower
• Napalm missile and Firewalker:Ground fire duration increased 1.5x, DPS halved
• Slight tracking added to prec bomber, it can hit subs that jitter out of the way
• Venom damage 800 -> 600
• Bantha cost 12000 -> 10500

Graphics:

• New Shield texture, small jitter effect for large shields.
• Added some pointless flashing lights to things
