Live Patch 0.7.0

[PyromonkeyGG]

Hey Townies,

We updated the game tonight to do two things, get the Kickstarter related stuff out of the game and to add all the artwork we need to start sending out redeem codes to backers.

If you are interested in being a backer still, you have 12 more hours or so to donate via Paypal and be eligible for rewards. You have to donate via the Paypal button here: http://www.blankmediagames.com

Changes:
* Removed all the Kickstarter related popups from the game.
* Added black screen before the death animation to remove the gallows and sometimes pets on certain death animations.
* Added a bunch of new artwork, some of them exclusive to Kickstarter backers. Non-exclusive stuff:
** 3 new death animations. Trial by Water, Splat! and Lightning Rod.
** New Theme Pack: Apocalypse. This includes a Fire it up! (an Arsonist character skin), Braaains (a zombie pet), the new Apocalypse map and house.
** New Arsonist skin, Firebug!

You can check out the new death animations, theme pack and skin in the shop right now!

Fixes:
* Fixed various server side crashes
* The name field in the selection lobby now limits you to 16 characters (the limit for names) so you don't type out an awesome name just to see its too long after submitting it.
* Fixed the bug with death notes and such sticking on the screen if you wait out the end game timer.

the black screen appears when someone get lynch that coming with this patch or just bugged?

Can you please remove copy/pasting in the game?! Because Blackmailer would be Overpowered in case of someone being Blackmailed!

That is something we put in when we made all the new death animations.

I don't like the idea of the blackmailer being considered a role that does the job of a framer by making someone look suspicious, I like it more being a role that prevent information of going out. the suspicion is just a bonus which I don't think should be focused on.

Hmmmm, while I agree with your reasoning, what if there is NO Framer in the game? I mean in Play All Mode, there can be a Blackmailer with no Framer! He simply asks for role, the guy doesn't answer and they hang him accusing him of Copying/Pasting I am Blackmailed! I'll leave Pyromonkey to decide on this matter so let's not dive more into this!

Speaking of suggestions, could you please modify the chat-input so that when you type something after the timer has gone down (or some other time the text won't appear in the window), instead of wiping the input-box, just let it stay as it is? This is something I've found to be a normal (and good) functionality in a few other games, and it saves you from having to write your entire message over.

Sure, it could seem to some that it's not working properly (Is my enter key not working?), but as it is now, there isn't anything that signifies your message was deleted because you can't type in chat, either. To circumvent this possible confusion, one could just implement something that does signify the chat lock. Maybe a (non-spammable) personal chat-message like "You can't chat right now." when you hit enter too late?

Hmm... I seem to have a white screen with just "patch 0.7.0" and the "Town Wins!" box and it just gets stuck there. Not sure if that is an old bug or something new with 0.7.0

I believe it's a new bug. It happened to me except with the "Serial Killer Wins!" box.

If you're experiencing the white screen, clear your browser's cache so that your browser can load the new assets:

I get it every time a game ends and I have cleared my cache three times now. It doesn't do any thing

[LevinSnakesRise]

Hmm, strange. Blake should look back into it again, and apply another fix.

When will ToS come out of Beta?

[Jahonee]

I was gone for about a month and all of this new stuff?!? Really sad I forgot about the kickstarter, got too focused on Sims 4...

[LevinSnakesRise]

When will ToS come out of Beta?

Likely won't be out of Beta for a while. When it gets to 1.0.0 will be when we're out of Beta, more than likely. No estimates on Post-Beta.

[Anapokefreak]

Betty Parris/ "Fire it up!" Are glitched.

Betty Parris/ "Fire it up!" Are glitched.

Clearing your cache in it's entirety should fix that. I see it nowhere other than bug reports.

[Arckas]

I still have the Facebook pop-up when I go to login.

[Santa07]

I love the squashed death animation

[n0valite]

Thanks for making it where people can donate still to be a backer . I wasn't sure if I wanted to donate until I saw many of the stretch goals pass. But then I completely forgot to donate yesterday because of yard work.

So there's already been 4 hotfixes?! when I logged in it said "Beta 0.7.04"

Likely to see if it fixed them all. Josh is currently online in Town of Salem (not playing) so I'm assuming he's the one applying the hot fixes.

I don't like the black screen when someone is about to be lynched. I think each time for a second that something bad is happening, like my display is going out or something. I think that it was better before. In fact, I thought that it was amusing to have the person's pet beside them as they're lynched.

This is so that the new death animations can be used. If they are in play, they will remove the gallows. It's necessary, in a way.
