Hi guys!
In the last couples of days I have been spending my time on quality update change and revisiting defensive stats that's require some touch to make them viable.
I started with simplifying crew description, that is removing crew trait entirely, updating icon for stats. Text is mostly generated to reduce the human error, however, certain description still requires manual writing due to its uniqueness.
Finally, I have revisited defensive stats as many players completely ignore those. Shield recovery has been nerfed to with recover duration changed from 1 second to 2 second.
Defense is calculated by the following formula : defense value = 15/(15+defence) if defense is positive and = 1- defense/(15-defence) if defense is negative. You can check the percentage of damage you are taking by hover on the defense stat.
There is also immunity duration after you take damage. No more instant death! yay.
Dodging also has a small vfx! don't ignore this stats can be very handy!
What to expect in the next update? Hmm, I have been planning to develop a sound system including music/ sfx and controller for sound. If no major issue arise, I would mainly focus on developing that system to enhance the value of Starship Scramble Demo.
