Do check it out!

Infantry squeezing past each other in tight spaces. Units with a valid path now reach their destination 100% of the time.

Flowmaps have returned. This will be the main thing for version 0.08. Should improve pathfinding significantly.

Also, current map count: 103.

Flow field pathfinding for single units now fully restored. They work for bridges and tunnels now.

We're introducing flocking to remedy the clumping seen in the vid.

The implementation of flow maps continues. We finally have active object avoidance in-game now.

Still lots to do, but it's all coming together.

Basic group movement added. This isn't flocking, not even sure we're going to add that at this point.

I made the graphic for the Emergency Charge Refill, a new item in the GJ shop.

Purchasing gives a quest that immediately fills charges, and it also comes with animated stickers.

@thoro had the idea of a bottle inspired by Zelda!

: Blender (Cycles)

Decided to replace all icons in the game with easier-to-make and more readable icons.

These icons will be dynamic and be colored with the faction and camo colors in-game.
