Slay the Spire 2 (STS2) v0.108.0 Патчноуты бетыБета

For all you beta testers who have been chomping at the bit for a new patch to chew on... here it is! Today's beta patch brings a ton of fixes, balance changes, some UX additions, a BIG batch of new multiplayer cards, and new art additions--including some animations for the latest boss, Aeonglass!

We've also got some big updates in the modding realm to call out...

Modding Updates

Thank you to our incredible community of modders (and mod players) for all of your feedback since we released Steam Workshop support! We've got quite a few changes that will be relevant to modders at the bottom of the notes, but first we wanted to specifically call out some major fixes and changes that affect players.

Previously, when launching the game with mods enabled for the first time, it appeared as though your progress was wiped. That is because unmodded saves are saved separately from your modded ones as a protective measure, and we defaulted to having the modded saves start entirely from scratch. Now, your unmodded saves are automatically copied over to the modded saves and a popup appears to explain the process to new mod users. They are still saved separately, though, which means any progress you make when playing with mods enabled will not be reflected after switching to unmodded and vice versa.

Additionally, players have been frequently encountering version conflict errors when doing modded multiplayer runs. We're introducing some fixes which should reduce those instances and more detailed error popups when they do occur. Note that we still recommend having the same exact mods enabled as your teammates, particularly if they actually affect gameplay and are not merely cosmetic.

We plan for these changes to come to the main branch soon, so non-beta-testers can keep an eye out for that! For more info on modding and playing with mods, check the patch notes from Major Update 2. Now it's time for the rest of today's patch notes...

General:

• End-of-turn Orb passives now trigger before Doom

• This means that, if a player would die to self-Doom (ex. from Neurosurge card) but also has an Orb with an end-of-turn passive that would kill the last remaining enemy (ex. Lightning Orb while the enemy is at 3 HP), they will now win the combat instead of losing it after ending their turn
