New Patch to Steam version (1/14/20)

Florida, USA

This is the first new patch for the game in about two and a half years https://steamcommunity.com/app/32470/discussions/0/1474221865188261871/

Notable changes for speedruns and their submissions:

  • Version numbers are now 1.120.748742 for EaW and 1.121.748742 for FoC

  • EaW received five new skirmish maps: Polus Winds (Land), Peril above Polis (Space), Shipyards of Kuat (Space), Race for Ryloth (Space), Ryloth Garrison (Land). FoC received two new skirmish maps: Dathomir Hostility (Land) and Utapau Heights (Land). Land Control maps do not accompany any of the new Land maps. Since many runners still run on retail versions of the game (which do not include these maps), I think beating the new maps should not be required for All Skirmish Battles runs.

  • Boba Fett's destination can no longer be modified mid-flight when using his jetpack. This fixes the "infinite jetpack" exploit that was possible when not allowing him to land by constantly changing the destination.

  • Ion cannons, hypervelocity guns, long-range scanners, and gravity-well generators are now factored into the calculation of auto-resolve outcomes and the size of attacking forces the AI should send for space battles.
