Updates/v55

v55.0 [10/04/24]

+ Updated the dolphin to reduce its ability strength a little. Its new description reads 'Sonar once for each alive adjacent ship.', this means it no longer can use its ability if there are no alive adjacent ships
+ Gem nodes now take time to research

v55.1 [10/06/24]

+ Fixed an issue where BC was not being granted to players that purchase BC through Discord

v55.2 [10/07/24]

+ Fixed an issue with the Discord BC payments system (again)
+ Fixed an issue in the battle timeout logic that was causing battles to sometimes timeout unexpectedly when they haven't given the players chance to take their turn!

v55.3 [10/08/24]

+ Discord avatars now use the server avatar (if its available) before using the general user avatar.
+ Invites to players within a discord activity are now considered "friendly" and not "ranked".
+ Rivalry chests can now be won for playing friendly battles

v55.4 [10/11/24]

+ The "my clan" button on the clans modal is now clickable and will show a little error if you have no clan. Noticed that some users were getting confused and "rage clicking" this disabled button.
+ The close button on the tournaments screen is now much more obvious

v55.5 [10/14/24]

+ A bunch more work around battle timeouts and AI turn taking to try to fix the issues that users are seeing when the game is at peak usage. Its very hard for me to test and replicate these issues to please do let me know if you see something not right!
+ No longer showing other players on the League on mobile in an effort to reduce the GPU crashing that is happening on this screen

v55.6 [10/18/24]

+ Somehow the mobile camera controls, emote button and board ping got moved, I blame evil pixies. Anyway I have now moved them back to their rightful position.
+ The "grump" emote now has a different look to distinguish it from the "grump 3" emote. The "Holding Sign Nice Shot" still has the same image as the "Waving Flag Nice Shot" emote, this is a known issue and the Gangbusters imps are hard at work cooking up something new for it.

v55.7 [10/22/24]

+ Fixed an issue where the daily gold button sometimes doesn't update making it look like its still collectable when its not.
+ Fixed an issue where if users signup with an invalid name then they can potentially get stuck in an infinite loop.
+ Fixed an issue where enerygy levels for ships may not be updating correctly after using a ship in battle.
+ Added a "Copy Replay Link" to the menu in the replay screen.

v55.8 [10/24/24]

+ Updated the board ping error message to make it more clear what you have to do
+ Fixed an issue that could sometimes happen when matchmaking against an AI player

v55.9 [10/26/24]

+ Changed the League Page to be a much simpler to understand design.
+ In other news we have added a bunch more gems nodes to the research tree, reduced gold node research times and increased gold node research rewards.

v55.10 [10/28/24]

+ Changed how we pull the subscription information from Discord in an attempt to fix these BC issues some users are seeing.
+ Upgraded the new League Page to add your total trophy and diamond count plus the level trophy requirements for each rank in the Rank Info Modal.

v55.11 [10/30/24]

+ Fixed an issue on the league that would sometimes cause the background to look cut off when the device scaling is enabled.
+ Hopefully fixed an issue where the ship info modal would insta-close when opening for some players

v55.12 [11/03/24]

+ Added a closable QR Code link to get the mobile app to the home screen (on desktop devices only).

v55.13 [11/08/24]

+ Fixed the "No ship definition for 'coracle' found for version 29" that was affecting some players. + The connection alert dialog can now be closed

v55.14 [11/14/24]

+ Updated the desktop in-game hud to now show the ship ability when targeting as ship like it does on mobile
+ "Instant Use" ships such as the Sea Monster now also have a "confirm" step like with targeting ships
+ Added a keyboard shortcut (enter) to "confirm use" the ability (when on desktop)
+ Fixed an error that was showing two zoom controls on the UI when targeting on mobile

v55.15 [11/19/24]

+ Hopefully fixed an issue some players have been seeing with gems values not being right after research.
+ Currency values on the shop page now use commas to separate thousands.
+ Fixed an issue where on some Android devices the currency values would sometimes wrap around to the next line.
+ Fixed an issue on mobile where the game would sometimes go to sleep if you didnt touch the screen for a while.
