Together in Battle / Re: Together in Battle Dev Log
Last post by CraigStern - September 22, 2025, 05:24:43 PM- the Reserve Supplies screen now shows a red warning icon on any character in a weapon-reliant class who is currently equipped with a broken weapon...or not equipped with any weapon at all.
- the Reserve Supplies screen now shows an orange warning icon on any character in a weapon-reliant class who is currently equipped with a weapon that is down to 1/3rd of its maximum uses or less.
- items now show a red warning icon if they're weapons which are broken.
- items now show an orange warning icon if they're weapons at 1/3rd uses remaining or less.
- recolored the old "new item" indicator in light green to make it stand out from the new warning indicators.
- fixed: when playing with gamepad, opening the army overview screen would start the cursor off over the salary icon, making it difficult to navigate down to the individual character rows. (It now starts off positioned over the level/experience icon.)
- fixed: when playing with gamepad, empty character rows in the army overview screen were navigable.
- fixed: when playing with gamepad, the bug reports screen still opened the virtual keyboard despite the fact that there is no longer an input text field there.

General Discussion / Re: How can you adjust the gam...
Last post by angelicajwilson - September 22, 2025, 01:08:52 AMYou can usually adjust the game quality from the in-game settings menu. Look for options like low, medium, or high under graphics. If you're using Adobe Air, it should appear in the main menu or options tab.

Last post by CraigStern - September 21, 2025, 12:42:47 PMFor the next update, version 1.0.55:
- the game now offers you a Skip Daytime button in Kalkerapur if no characters remain in your roster or you've used at least 1 time point for the day. This will let you go directly to camp.

Together in Battle / Re: Together in Battle Dev Log
Last post by CraigStern - September 18, 2025, 11:18:58 AM- fixed in version 1.0.53b: major plot events occurring in town in the morning (specifically those tied to the game's first bad ending) would get preempted and fail to appear if they coincided with a scheduled league match in the arena.

Together in Battle / Re: Together in Battle Dev Log
Last post by CraigStern - September 16, 2025, 03:14:07 PMFor the next update:
- fixed in version 1.0.53a: it's now harder to kill the kineticist who calls in the reinforcements in the blacksmith rescue battle when playing on difficulties above Relaxed.
- fixed in version 1.0.53a: when playing with gamepad controls, selecting the dialogue option to return to the shop after clicking to exit was not returning gamepad focus to the shop interface.
- fixed in version 1.0.53a: when playing with gamepad controls in roguelike mode, the game was inappropriately treating the gamepad as having focus on the save game button in the turn box at the start of each player turn in combat after the first.
- fixed in version 1.0.53a: one of the camp activity narrations for wood carving was missing a special character necessary to account for non-male characters.
- fixed in version 1.0.53a: generic gasul units with Changing gender created in the campaign editor's character creator were not being displayed correctly when spawned in battle.
- fixed in version 1.0.53a: the custom portrait button tooltip for generic characters in the campaign editor's character creator was being displayed on the wrong UI layer.

Together in Battle / Re: Together in Battle Dev Log
Last post by CraigStern - September 14, 2025, 11:43:26 AM- UI improvement: the game now gracefully handles weapon-switching while attack tiles are visible onscreen.
- updated the moddable version of the main Together in Battle campaign with scripting fixes from the last month of updates.
- fixed: a change to the game's code intended to let it gracefully handle missing dialogue lines in other contexts had caused it to stop generating missing response lines on the fly during camp.
- fixed: the Reinforcing Spine item was not adding to the target weapon's max uses correctly.
- fixed: selecting a skill and then equipping a new weapon that retained access to the selected skill was not causing the game to update damage and to-hit-chance data reflected in the attack tiles based on the weapon's new stats.
- fixed: selecting a skill and then equipping a new weapon that causes the character to lose access to the selected skill (or the base skill the selected skill depends upon) was not causing the game to deselect the skill and clear its attack tiles.
- fixed: selecting a skill and then unequipping a weapon that grants the base skill the selected skill depends upon was not causing the game to deselect the skill and clear its attack tiles.
- fixed: the game was using an item's full, base value rather than its modification cost when charging the player for repairs and engravings at the blacksmith.
- fixed: one of the snow-chasm-transition terrain tiles (snow-chasm3TipTL, to be exact) had incorrect rotation data.
- fixed: the game was not wiping its memory of old characters when starting a New Game Plus (as it was supposed to be), meaning that custom characters recruited in the prior playthrough would not show up again during recruitment.

Together in Battle / Re: Together in Battle Dev Log
Last post by CraigStern - September 13, 2025, 12:20:30 PM- fixed in version 1.0.53: human female hairstyle 20 had somehow lost its formatting, causing it to no longer show up.
- fixed in version 1.0.53: the character creator was overwriting character default facial expressions when filling in gaps at the conclusion of character creation.

Together in Battle / Re: Together in Battle Dev Log
Last post by CraigStern - September 12, 2025, 10:37:22 AMHotfix 1.0.52a:
- in version 1.0.52a: rapier-based attacks Thrust and Lunge now have a huge, +75 accuracy buff to provide more counterplay against Dodge tanks.
- in version 1.0.52a: increased the energy cost of Defiant Stance from 2 to 4.
- fixed in version 1.0.52a: because the brother from the brother leader arena event and the inspirational leader from the inspirational leader arena event shared a script ID, and because the brother from the brother leader event was saved as a persistent characters, if the brother leader event happened and then, in a subsequent battle, the inspirational leader event happened, the brother would deliver the death monologue for the inspirational leader in place of the inspirational leader themselves, in turn causing the game to lock up upon completing the battle.
- fixed in version 1.0.52a: there were a couple of remaining cavosphere activity narrations that shadowlings could get which used the descriptor "kick."
- fixed in version 1.0.52a: female human hairstyle 20 was sitting a little bit too high up on the head.

Together in Battle / Re: Together in Battle Dev Log
Last post by CraigStern - September 11, 2025, 07:50:28 AM- fixed: character tooltips had begun showing up when mousing over attack tiles in battle, which could obscure important information with certain AOE attacks.
- fixed: character tooltips could be made to show up in the gap between an army winning and the victory/defeat screen popping up, which would then obscure the victory/defeat screen.
