Developer's Note:
Hello everyone, I have been on holiday break for the past few weeks, and have just begun development once again. Thank you all for your patience!
Before I get started on creating new content, I wanted to address and fix some underlying bugs that was inhibiting the multiplayer experience of the game.
This is only a small patch, but future patches that will follow will contain new content for the game. Thank you for understanding!
Game / General
Changed text components for various UI elements from the standard legacy unity text rendering to "Text Mesh Pro" for better readability. This may break some UI related mods and will need to be adapted to.
Removed the "Waiting For Players" prompt when being in the Dungeon Boss Portal, which led to net-play sync issues where larger parties could not enter the boss room.
Most class gear now have new gear condition special bonuses for increasing skill power of certain class skills.
Fixed bug where the pvp flag input was not being properly saved / loaded and continued to use the default "V" hotkey.
The sword weapon class is renamed to "Blade", which would stylistically allow one handed axes to be in the same category.
Weapon / Alt weapon slots are renamed to "Main Hand" and "Main Hand (Alt)" slots.
Shield slot is renamed to "Off Hand".
Updated the condition icon visibility, as they now pulse instead of rapidly flashing when the timer is low on them.
Updated consumable tool-tips, showing the conditions they can provide such as the potion conditions.
Fixed a game-pad icon element being incorrectly shown on the character creation stat tab.
Skill Balancing
Recovery and Siphon Leech are now classified as "Vitality" skills, and will scale power towards the Max Health stat.
Significantly increased damage scale of Talus.
Decreased Inner Focus cool-down from 45sec to 25sec.
Paladin:
Increased Divine mana cost from 12 to 20.
Known issues that have not been addressed yet:
The training dummies (specifically ones that spawn in Sanctum) can still have incorrect positioning on client-side play in multiplayer.
Due to the reworkings of conditions, weapons in this version are still in a work in progress for "on hit" conditions, they will not have on hit conditions until finalized.
Some enemies may provide conditions that can have an infinite duration or do absolutely nothing. Please report this in the comments if you discover a specific enemy providing a faulty condition.
% buffs for critical and evasion stats are not completely accurate, this will be fixed and is known about.
ATLYSS Version 112025.a4 released.
Verify integrity of game cache if the update does not occur.
Game / General
- Applied an additional buffer for updating non-local players equipment display, which should prevent client players from appearing naked when loading into map instances.
- Fixed oversight where the new dungeon patterns did not have a modifier table for mobs. (Guardian, Killer, etc).
- Updated the purple boss portals for dungeons, potentially fixing the "waiting for party" accumulation issue where players get stuck / teleport weirdly into the boss room.
- Moved the Allow Unicode setting at the top of the game settings for easier accessibility.
- Added a setting to persist the Ctrl + F12 hotkey to disconnect from a lobby while in-game and not loading.
- Added a setting to detect the left analog stick for movement in mouse and keyboard input mode for custom steam input templates.
- Keybindings in mouse and keyboard input mode can now detect game-pad inputs, though be aware that this could potentially lead to issues if game-pad inputs are set to keybindings while in native game-pad input mode.
- Resized the chat font atlas native resolution from 1024x1024 to 512x512.
- Added an "allow unicode" setting in the game tab, nearby the fade chatbox options. This will allow the hosted lobby to accept unicode characters for other languages. More development on this will be focused on to prevent wingdings from breaking the chatbox.
- Fixed issue where the pvp indicator icons would display for the host player if they aren't on the same map instance as the flagged players.

ATLYSS Version 112025.a2 released.
Verify integrity of game cache if the update does not occur.
Game / General
Fixed Screen Mode and Screen Resolution setting drop-downs. Setting resolutions and screen mode should work properly without hassle now.

The settings menu cells can now be additionally navigated using the left analog stick while in the main menu (not in-game).
Added an official Steam input template for Steamdeck for the native game-pad support mode, which just makes the right trackpad and right trigger button emulate mouse movement and left mouse clicking.

Added an input buffer for game-pad on character selection to prevent some issues from occurring.
Added a leader crown icon that appears over the party leader's indicator arrow in-game.
Holding down the X Button on game-pad while hovering over equipment in the inventory menu will pop open a tool-tip if the tool-tip is not open.
Selecting a realm on the lobby list refreshes the list like it did before.
Optimized dungeon instance loading for server-side and client-side, reducing useless processes that happen every frame update.
Fixed issue where the host player can hear sounds that come from loaded dungeon patterns (spike traps, doors, teleporters, etc).
Fixed issue where several dungeon pattern objects were being spawned in awkward positions (Eye laser beam statues floating in the air, etc).
Fixed issue where party members can go into a dungeon while the party leader is in a different dungeon.
Fixed issue where longer spike panel traps have their spikes culled depending on camera angle.
Fixed issue where the minimap being stuck as host when connected client players are in a dungeon.
Fixed several player effects such as the dash effect and vanity effects appearing when the local player is culled / unculled from zooming the camera in and out.
Fixed several animations such as combat animations, dashing, etc potentially happening while the player is dead.
Fixed several effects that happen on different map instances showing up for the host player if they are not on the same map instance.

Fixed bug when stunning the Geist Lord (Zuulneruda, Kaluuz) before they finish their "introduction" AI behavior, causing them to not attack.
Fixed a mob arena trigger not colliding properly in one of the Sanctum Catacombs dungeon patterns.
Removed some terrain meshes in the Bulaar Fortress, which mysteriously made the AI for mobs dormant.

Added a "Revive" interaction mechanic (pressing the interact key nearby a dead player), allowing players to revive others without needing a Soul Pearl. Reviving a without a Soul Pearl will take much longer to cast, and will be interrupted on movement.
Added a friendly npc at the Chapel of The Elders that explains reviving others.
Updated quest reward inventory quantity check, preventing the player from completing the quest if they have a full inventory under other circumstances.
Fixed the item iteration queue when abandoning a quest, which had a bug of removing quest items from a quest the player still has in their log.
Fixed not being able to pick up dropped currency that was not auto-tagged / picked up by anyone.
Fixed Kubold's mouth mesh clipping on the lowest muzzle size.
Sapphite ore now provides copper clusters in its loot table.

Skill Balance
Removed the 1 mana cost for Recall.
Paladin:
Divine's damage hitbox can no longer crit.
Bandit:
Bomb trap can no longer be reflected or stagger the parent player who set the trap if parried in pvp.

All legacy trade / non consumable items (Green lipstick, Slimek Eyes, etc) that are natively stackable can be stacked up to 99. Existing items in storage or inventory may need to be refreshed / picked up again to reassign the max stack quantity value.
Fixed Sapphite Katar mesh where the ends of the handles did not have polygons.
The Amberite Helm no longer displays the ears of the player character wearing it.
