v.3.7

Combat Extended 3.7 “No Tables Were Harmed”

Features

• Projectiles that only partially penetrate armor will now also deliver blunt damaged.
• Added an improved ThingTracker, improving performance and pawn behavior when seeking various items on the map.
• Batches of Mechanoid ammo can now be disassembled at the Smelter to reclaim a small amount of steel and plasteel.
• Turrets can now be stunned by EMP damage.
• Added a warning that appears when using an uncompiled version of the mod files.

Fixes

• Removed code that caused melee attacks to target legs at an unusually high rate. We’ve reverted to Vanilla melee targeting regarding what body part is attacked.
• Fixed error with the mechanoid warning letter that occurs if you lack a colony or if a mechanoid faction doesn’t exist.
• Prevented map cross-talk; Fragments and cooking-off ammo will no longer attempt to appear on deleted maps. Phantom messages like “out of ammo” will no longer appear.
• Recipe bill info windows now show the correct melee penetration.
• Fixed a bug the occurred when unloading a caravan is interrupted by a save/load cycle.
• Further improvements to projectile collision and line of sight detection; pawns should shoot walls somewhat less.
• Weapons without an ammoSet assigned will no longer break loadouts.
• Raiders will no longer refuse to shoot non-High Explosive shells and colonists will no longer automatically change between shell types when they run out.
• Fixed the humanoid widthLaying value. Humans are no longer 3.5m wide when prone.
• Fixed a bug where removing surgically removing “squishy” body parts would destroy the body part that contained them.
• Fixed some patches for Royalty apparel.
