Purchasing:

  • Fixed an issue where players would not receive crystals if the purchase flow was interrupted.

Facebook:

  • Fixed progress saving issues when players were unable to properly sync with the Facebook system.
  • Players may once again correctly login to Facebook through the app without workarounds.
  • Improvements to the Facebook notification system.

PvP:

  • Updated the game to detect PvP behavior where players would force quit the app mid-battle to avoid losing medals.
    • If a player performs a voluntary app minimize, and then force quits during a PvP battle, this will be counted as an intentional disconnect. Players who do this will lose the maximum amount of medals and all resources spent on the battle.
  • Revenge battles no longer add or remove medals from a player’s medal count in order to prevent collusion exploits.
  • Added improvements to the client to better prevent 1217 errors from occurring at the end of battles.

Squads:

  • Squad management droids have been reminded of the privileges of rank and will no longer allow officers to eject the squad leader.
  • Improved the Squads system to better reflect the caps for donations and the flow of squads.
    • Note: Squad unit cap (per person, per 24 hours) is set to 4 units. This is what leads to the grayed out donation button.
  • Visual improvements to the squad system, including fixes to allow chat to extend past 2 lines in the chat window.

Matchmaking/Leaderboards:

  • Updated PvP matchmaking to take HQ levels into account.
    • Note: Matchmaking improvements are an ongoing process.

AI:

  • Added an improvement so that healer units do not change targets after choosing a target to follow.

Content:

  • Fixed multiple cases where players were unable to complete or continue past certain missions.
  • Fixed an issue where players were unable to swap turrets at level 7.
  • Unit holograms have been updated to ensure that they match the correct units.
