Beta 90
Summary of changes (For more details and notes, see the full changelog (TAT-v2.0-Beta-Changelog.txt) included in the release):
Fixed Commander explosions doing full damage instead of no damage to Arm Moho Twilight, Core Moho Exploiter, and Arm Thunderstorm.
Arm Guardian and Core Punisher weapons are now line of sight weapons instead of ballistic.
NOTE: This should help improve their ability to attack incoming units instead of just denying the area.
Arm Radical and Core Blocker weapon [MEDIUMFIXED_GUN] range increased to 1280 (800), reload increased to 1.6 (1.0), weapon velocity reduced to 600 (800), and edge effectiveness reduced to 0 (0.333).
NOTE: This puts the Radical/Blocker in the "budget Guardian/Punisher" category, giving a faster and cheaper option for defending against light T2 artillery attacks before you have T2 yourself.
Adjusted Arm Hermes, Flea, and Tripod and Core Oppressor "weight" for the Arm Condor and Core Vindicator to match their current metal cost.
Doubled build power for the Arm/Core Nanolathe Minelayer Turret.

Beta 91
Summary of changes (For more details and notes, see the full changelog (TAT-v2.0-Beta-Changelog.txt) included in the release):
Tweaked Arm Guardian and Core Punisher models to help with shots hitting the ground in front of targets.
Added CTRL_W to the Arm Blade and Core Blackdawn and Krow.
Depth charge damage to Commanders reduced to non-amphibious unit levels.
Arm Dragonfly and Core Seahook cruise altitude reduced and Seahook model size increased.
Core Oppressor rocket flighttime increased slightly to fix them not being able to hit targets south of them.
Arm and Core strategic, tactical, and anti-nuke silos are now on the Gantry constuctor build menus (Thanks ChaoStorm).
Defenses that can close or go underground to armor up now all take 1/6 damage, instead of 1/4:
Arm Dragon's Claw
Core Dragon's Maw
Arm PACKO
Arm Pit Bull
Core Viper
Arm Thunderstorm
Arm Ambusher
Core Toaster
Arm Annihilator
Core Doomsday Machine
Arm Vanguard explosion sprite made smaller.
Arm and Core Metal Generators now take 1/4 damage when closed instead of 1/2.
Arm Avatar and Core Mauler weapon shaking reduced.
Line of sight support increased up to 3000 pixels.
Arm Sharpshooter weapon area of effect doubled.
Arm Jeffy and Core Weasel armor reduced and firepower increased.

Beta 92
Summary of changes (For more details and notes, see the full changelog (TAT-v2.0-Beta-Changelog.txt) included in the release):
Arm and Core MRUs energy cost increased to match standard energy drain for building advanced vehicles.
The following amphibious units had their energy cost lowered to 50% above baseline instead of 100% above:
Arm Pincer
Arm Pelican
Arm Triton
Arm Marauder
Core Garpike
Core Gimp
Core Shiva
Core Croc
Core Poison Arrow
Arm PomPom and Core Aries had their energy cost increased by 50% and their speed increased by 25% to match the other amphibious units.
Core Gimp speed increased proportionately match the Arm Pelican.
The following advanced tanks have had their armor increased by 50% and their firepower decreased by 50%:
Arm Mumbo
Arm Triton
Arm Demolisher
Core Reaper
Core Poison Arrow
Core Termite
Core Halberd
The Arm Bulldog and Core Goliath have had their armor doubled and their firepower halved.
Arm Sneaky Pete and Veil and Core Castro and Shroud no longer automatically cloak as soon as you start to build them. The T1 and T2 jamming towers were also set to cost twice as much metal and energy as the T1 and T2 radar towers. This reduced the T1 jammers cost and increased the T2 jammers cost.

Beta 93
Summary of changes (For more details and notes, see the full changelog (TAT-v2.0-Beta-Changelog.txt) included in the release):
Removed some colors and added others (Thanks ChaoStorm and Venom!).
New Megamap icons (Thanks ChaoStorm and Wiffer!).
Arm Spider and Core Bladewing paralyzes for 1 second per shot instead of 10.
Arm Mumbo weapon damage halved, energy per shot doubled, and it now rolls through things like the Beamer weapon.
Core Termite weapon damage increased 33%, energy per shot doubled, and area of effect increased.
Core Oppressor rockets no longer track.

Beta 94
Summary of changes (For more details and notes, see the full changelog (TAT-v2.0-Beta-Changelog.txt) included in the release):
Increased Arm Samson and Core Slasher line of sight and weapon range, reload, velocity, and area of effect.
Increased Arm Swatter, Core Slinger, and Core Exploiter weapon area of effect.
Removed firing ports from Arm Hulk and Core Envoy.
Fixed a script error on the Arm Bear and Core Turtle allowing them to load enemy units.
Arm Guardian and Core Punisher scripts and weapons altered to support weapon switching. The ballistic weapon fires more slowly but with bigger damage and area of effect. Targeting uses X to switch and D to manually fire the ballistic weapon, like the Arm Fido.
Core Punisher armor increased a bit to compensate for it using the same weapons as the Guardian.
Arm Zipper and Core Pyro speeds increased to match Arm Peewee and Core A.K.
Core Pyro, Reaper, and Dragon's Maw weapons damage increased to 100% baseline (Was 50% baseline).
Core Bladewing and Arm Spider costs cut to 1/3.
Core Gimp metal cost increased (This was supposed to have been done in Beta 77, but was missed somehow. The other cost increases (energy, firepower, etc.) were already done then).
All Seaplanes reduced to be the same speed as their advanced aircraft counterparts, instead of being 10% faster.
Arm Phalanx and Archer and Core Copperhead and Shredder weapon area of effect increased.
All flakker weapons set to line of sight instead of ballistic, allowing them to shoot at targets at a very high or low angle they couldn't before.
Arm Gremlin armor halved and firepower doubled.
Arm and Core Minelayer Nanolathe Turret build distance increased to match Fortification Turrets.
Arm Dragon's Claw and Core Dragon's Maw line of sight increased.
Arm Sneaky Pete and Veil and Core Castro and Shroud line of sight increased.
Arm Wombat and MERL and Core Nixer, Dominator, Shiva, and Diplomat weapons had their turn rate reduced to only allow them to hit targets in the outer 25% of their range (Previously the outer 75% of their range).
Core Banisher model altered to increase the height of the turret, allowing it to shoot over obstructions more easily.
Core Banisher weapon changed to allow it to hit an empty spot manually targeted on the ground.

Beta 95
Summary of changes (For more details and notes, see the full changelog (TAT-v2.0-Beta-Changelog.txt) included in the release):
Fixed the dark green showing up as yellow on the minimap.
Minelaying units now have the same icon as constructors.
Fixed "slow" animations for water explosions.
(Thanks ChaoStorm!)
Fixed Arm Mumbo script to prevent the unit locking up and not firing when under heavy fire.
Arm Mumbo weapon damage increased.
Control G added to Arm Pelican.
Fixed a script bug that prevented Arm Guardians and Core Punishers from firing in ballistic mode until they'd fired at least once in direct-fire mode.
Seaplanes made more expensive and heavier than regular advanced aircraft:
Previously, Seaplanes had the same armor/firepower as advanced aircraft, but cost only 2/3s as much. This changes Seaplanes to cost 25% more than advanced aircraft, but keep the same weapons, so all of the extra cost goes into armor, boosting their armor by about 56% over advanced aircraft. However, they also move about 10% slower. This makes Seaplanes much more heavily armored for a relatively small increase in cost compared to advanced aircraft while keeping the same weapons.
Replaced Arm Sentinel and Core Gaat Gun models with their original OTA models which are shorter, but also target fast-moving units like Flash tanks more effectively.
Core Viper weapon area of effect increased.
Arm Spirit and Core Krow removed from Advanced Air Plants and added to Experimental Gantries.
Arm Spirit cost increased, speed reduced, weapon range reduced, damage increased, and reload reduced.
Core Krow cost increased, speed reduced, weapon range reduced, and damage increased.
Arm Bantha weapon velocity increased to improve accuracy.
Core Cauterizer turn rate increased.
Arm and Core Commander explosion area of effect increased.
Arm and Core Decoy Commander explosion area of effect increased.
NOTE: This increase in the Commander blast area of effect prevents an enemy commander from destroying your commander with his anti-air missile from further away and surviving your blast. As always, remember that Commander blasts only affect units, leaving structures intact.
Arm and Core Micro Fusions cost and output reduced.
NOTE: This puts Micro Fusions at the same metal/energy efficiency as regular fusions, instead of 23% more efficient. They also produce less energy each, meaning they take up more space and are therefore more hazardous to use.
Arm and Core Amphibious Complex costs reduced 2/3 to equal the costs of Hovercraft Platforms.
NOTE: This puts the Amphibious Complexes back to T1.5 level, just like Hover platforms.
Hovers give better than T1 units, and a couple of advanced things like Micro Fusions, but mostly not advanced. Complexes give full-blown advanced units at half the cost of regular advanced, but you get a short list of units across both Kbots and Vehicles, so you'll just have to work with what you get.

TA:T v2.0 Beta 95:
Fixed the dark green showing up as yellow on the minimap.
Minelaying units now have the same icon as constructors.
Fixed "slow" animations for water explosions.
(Thanks ChaoStorm!)
Adjusted Arm Mumbo script to avoid it locking up when being hit by lots of enemy fire all at once.
Arm Mumbo weapon [TAWF003_weapon] damage increased to 26 (19).
NOTE: The Mumbo weapon often hits twice on a target, due to the area of effect, but sometimes only hits once. It's hard to estimate how often, but this increase should help better off-set the times it's only hitting once on a target.
Added Control G hotkey to Arm Pelican.
Fixed a script bug that prevented Arm Guardians and Core Punishers from firing in ballistic mode until they'd fired at least once in direct-fire mode.
Arm Seaplane Platform description changed to Builds Armored Seaplanes (540 Build Power) (Builds Seaplanes (540 Build Power)).

Core Hunter energy cost increased to 30700 (16373), metal cost increased to 265 (141), build time increased to 32031 (17083), armor increased to 1852 (1185), speed reduced to 7.64 (8.4), and description changed to Armored Radar/Sonar/Line of sight Seaplane (-101E) (Radar/Sonar/Line of sight Seaplane (-101E)).
NOTE: Previously, Seaplanes had the same armor/firepower as advanced aircraft, but cost only 2/3s as much. This changes Seaplanes to cost 25% more than advanced aircraft, but keep the same weapons, so all of the extra cost goes into armor, boosting their armor by about 56% over advanced aircraft. However, they also move about 10% slower. This makes Seaplanes much more heavily armored for a relatively small increase in cost compared to advanced aircraft while keeping the same weapons.
Arm Detonator and Core Catalyst weapon [ARMEMP_WEAPON] special damage set to 34000 for the Goliath (Was default damage of 25000).
Arm Retaliator weapon [NUCLEAR_MISSILE] and Core Silencer weapon [CRBLMSSL] special damage set to 34000 for the Goliath (Was default damage of 25000).
NOTE: This prevents a full veteran status Goliath from surviving a direct nuclear hit.
Replaced Arm Sentinel and Core Gaat Gun models with their original OTA models which are shorter, but also target fast-moving units like Flash tanks more effectively.
Core Clasher description changed to Heavy Blast-Laser Hovercraft (Heavy Laser Hovercraft).
Core Termite description changed to All-terrain Assault Blast-Laser Vehicle (All-terrain Assault Laser Vehicle).
NOTE: This just reflects that the weapon has a larger area of effect (for a laser).
Core Viper weapon [CORVIPE_LASER] area of effect increased to 168 (128).
Arm Spirit and Core Krow removed from Advanced Air Plants and added to Experimental Gantries.
Arm Spirit model size increased 33%.
Arm Spirit energy cost increased to 202355 (151766), metal cost increased to 3185 (2389), buildtime increased to 102969 (77227), armor increased to 8635 (6476), and speed reduced to 8.1712 (10.214).
Arm Spirit weapon [Arm_pidr] range reduced to 535 (713), reload reduced to 7.847 (10.463), and damage increased to 16000 (12000).
Core Krow energy cost increased to 214392 (160794), metal cost increased to 3376 (2532), buildtime increased to 111855 (83891), armor increased to 23632 (17724), speed reduced to 4.956 (6.195), acceleration reduced to 0.1285 (0.25), and turn rate reduced to 414 (572).
Core Krow weapon [KROWLASER2] range reduced to 489 (611), damage increased to 652 (391) and energy per shot increased to 156 (117).
Core Krow weapon [KROWLASER] range reduced to 534 (667), damage increased to 358 (215) and energy per shot increased to 95 (71).
Arm Bantha weapon [ARMBANTHA_FIRE] weapon velocity increased to 600 (450) and tolerance reduced to 3500 (6000).
NOTE: This should let them hit faster moving targets more easily.
Core Cauterizer turnrate increased to 140 (70).
Arm and Core Commander explosion [COMMANDER_BLAST] area of effect increased to 1600 (960).
Arm and Core Decoy Commander destroyed explosion [DECOY_COMMANDER_BLAST] area of effect increased to 1600 (960).
NOTE: This increase in the Commander blast area of effect prevents an enemy commander from destroying your commander with his anti-air missile from further away and surviving your blast. As always, remember that Commander blasts only affect units, leaving structures intact.
Arm and Core Micro Fusion energy cost reduced to 10453 (15072), metal cost reduced to 608 (876), buildtime reduced to 18471 (27751), armor reduced to 352 (616), energy make reduced to 200 (350), and description updated.
NOTE: This puts Micro Fusions at the same metal/energy efficiency as regular fusions, instead of 23% more efficient. They also produce less energy each, meaning they take up more space and are therefore more hazardous to use.
Arm Amphibious Complex energy cost reduced to 12836 (19259), metal cost reduced to 2100 (3150), and build time reduced to 42000 (63000).
Core Amphibious Complex energy cost reduced to 13265 (19734), metal cost reduced to 2170 (3231), and build time reduced to 44512 (66277).
NOTE: This puts the Amphibious Complexes back to T1.5 level, just like Hover platforms.
Hovers give better than T1 units, and a couple of advanced things like Micro Fusions, but mostly not advanced. Complexes give full-blown advanced units at half the cost of regular advanced, but you get a short list of units across both Kbots and Vehicles, so you'll just have to work with what you get.
Arm Fortification Gates destroyed explosion set to [MEDIUM_BUILDINGEX] ([LARGE_BUILDINGEX]) and self-destruct explosion set to [MEDIUM_BUILDING] ([LARGE_BUILDING]).
Core Fortification Gates destroyed explosion set to [MEDIUM_BUILDINGEX] ([LARGE_BUILDINGEX]) and self-destruct explosion set to [MEDIUM_BUILDING] ([LARGE_BUILDING]).
September 7, 2025
TA:T v2.0 Beta 94:
Replaced NONE.PCX icon to fix radar dots being black (Thanks ChaoStorm!).
Fixed PACKO having yellow areas on the model (LOGOS.GAF).
Fixed Core Shodan not having an icon (Added TANK category).
Arm Samson and Core Slasher weapon [ARMTRUCK_MISSILE] range increased to 600 (500), reload increased to 1.5696 (1.308), weaponvelocity increased to 650 (450), startvelocity increased to 550 (350), and area of effect increased to 128 (96).
Arm Samson and Core Slasher line of sight increased to 650 (560).
Arm Swatter, Core Slinger, and Exploiter weapon [ARMAH_WEAPON] area of effect increased to 128 (96).
Removed firing ports from Arm Hulk and Core Envoy:
IsAirBase set to 0 (1) and changed description to "Naval Transport (4 units to fire laser)(capacity 24 4x4 units)" ("Naval Transport w/ Firing Ports (capacity 24 4x4 units)").
NOTE: This removes the "firing ports" allowing transported units to fire while inside the transport. Depending on the units being carried, it was a nice boost, or very hard to deal with and outclassed other ships. They still have their laser that can be fired if at least 4 units are being carried.
Fixed a script error on the Arm Bear and Core Turtle allowing them to load enemy units.
Arm Guardian and Core Punisher scripts altered to support weapon switching.
Core Punisher weapon [CORFIXED_GUN] range reduced to 1280 (1295), changed to ballistic (line of sight), reload increased to 3.75 (2.7), weaponvelocity reduced to 450 (600), and damage increased to 1477 (1119).
Arm Guardian tertiary weapon set to [CORFIXED_GUN] (none).
Core Punisher primary weapon changed to [ARMFIXED_GUN] ([CORFIXED_GUN]) and tertiary weapon set to [CORFIXED_GUN] (none).
Added the following to Arm Guardian and Core Punisher:
wspe_badTargetCategory=VTOL;
Onoffable=1;
Activatewhenbuilt=0;
canDgun=1;
Arm Guardian and Core Punisher description changed to "Med.Range Plasma Battery.X switches weapons.D targets ballistic" ("Medium Range Plasma Battery").
NOTE:
This gives both the Arm Guardian and the Core Punisher the ability to change between a direct fire weapon (like they already had) and a ballistic weapon, which fires more slowly, but does more damage per hit, and has more area of effect. The selected weapon is toggled the same way as the Arm Fido, with the X key (Or clicking the On/Off button). Off (Default) is the direct-fire weapon, and On uses the ballistic weapon, instead. Remember that when using the ballistic weapon, to manually target you must use the D key (Or click the D-Gun button), instead of the A key (Attack button).
Core Punisher armor increased to 4427 (4208).
NOTE: This is because the Punisher is now using the same weapons as the Guardian, despite costing a bit more.
Removed wsec_badTargetCategory=VTOL and added wspe_badTargetCategory=VTOL to Arm Fido.
NOTE: The Fido doesn't have a secondary weapon, only a primary and a tertiary weapon.
Arm Zipper speed increased to 2.535 (2.3).
Core Pyro speed increased to 2.305 (2.091).
Increased flamethrower weapons from 50% bonus damage to 100% bonus damage:
Core Pyro weapon [FLAMETHROWER] reload reduced to 0.6719 (0.6826) and damage increased to 21 (16) and special damages adjusted accordingly.
Core Reaper weapon [CORE_REAP] reload reduced to 0.4718 (0.481) and damage increased to 17 (13) and special damages adjusted accordingly.
Core Dragon's Maw weapon [DMAW] damage increased to 16 (12).
NOTE: Flames are very damaging, and don't cost energy, but move relatively slowly and spread out as they travel, often causing them to miss a lot unless in a target-rich environment or against targets that are stationary.
Core Bladewing energy cost reduced to 142 (425), metal cost reduced to 9 (27), armor reduced to 25 (76), buildtime reduced to 296 (888), destroyed explosion set to TINY_BUILDINGEX (SMALL_UNITEX), and self-destruct explosion set to SMALL_UNITEX (SMALL_UNIT).
Arm Spider energy cost reduced to 1385 (4155), metal cost reduced to 32 (95), armor reduced to 252 (756), buildtime reduced to 1203 (3608), destroyed explosion set to TINY_BUILDINGEX (SMALL_UNITEX), and self-destruct explosion set to SMALL_UNITEX (SMALL_UNIT).
Core Gimp metal cost increased to 295 (230).
NOTE: This was supposed to have been done in Beta 77, and the rest of the changes were made at that time (Increased energy cost, buildtime, armor, firepower, etc.) but the metal cost was left unchanged at 230 instead of being increased to 295.
Arm Tornado speed reduced to 9.5 (10.45).
Core Voodoo speed reduced to 8.64 (9.5).
Arm Albatross speed reduced to 7.333 (8.0663).
Core Typhoon speed reduced to 6.666 (7.333).
Arm Tsunami speed reduced to 7.333 (8.066).
Core Maelstrom speed reduced to 6.666 (7.333).
Arm Sabre speed reduced to 7.5 (8.25).
Core Cutlass speed reduced to 6.82 (7.49).
Arm Seahawk speed reduced to 9.2 (10.12).
Core Hunter speed reduced to 8.4 (9.24).
Arm Construction Seaplane speed reduced to 7.3 (8.03).
Core Construction Seaplane speed reduced to 6.6363 (7.7).
Core Advanced Construction Aircraft speed reduced to 6.6363 (7).
NOTE: This puts all Seaplanes at the same speed as their advanced aircraft counterparts, instead of being 10% faster.
Arm Phalanx and Archer and Core Copperhead and Shredder weapon [ARMYORK_GUN] area of effect increased to 192 (150) and set to lineofsight (ballistic).
Arm Flakker and Flakker NS weapon [ARMFLAK_GUN] set to lineofsight (ballistic).
Core Cobra and Cobra NS weapon [CORFLAK_GUN] set to lineofsight (ballistic).
NOTE: Due to being ballistic, flakkers wouldn't shoot at things with too low or too high of an angle. An aircraft directly over a flakker could not be shot. This should fix that.
Arm and Core Fortress walls damaged version armor increased to 29500 (14750).
Arm Gremlin armor reduced to 1012 (2022).
Arm Gremlin weapon [ARMST_GAUSS] damage increased to 208 (104).
NOTE: Since Gremlins may not have much time after decloaking before they are destroyed and explode, this will help them to do more damage in that time.
Arm and Core Minelayer Nanolathe Turret build distance increased to 1325 (1000), line of sight increased to 1325 (1000), and description changed to "Build mines and DT in large radius (Cloaks) (60 Build Power)" ("Build mines and DT in medium radius (Cloaks) (60 Build Power)").
Arm Dragon's Claw line of sight increased to 900 (675).
Core Dragon's Maw line of sight increased to 900 (675).
Arm Sneaky Pete line of sight increased to 1325 (1094).
Core Castro line of sight increased to 1205 (995).
Arm Veil line of sight increased to 2650 (2188).
Core Shroud line of sight increased to 2409 (1989).
Core Dominator weapon [CORHRK_ROCKET] turnrate reduced to 5632 (12615), flight time increased to 8.5 (7.0), and noautorange set to 0 (1).
Core Shiva weapon [SHIVA_ROCKET] turnrate reduced to 5632 (12615), flight time increased to 8.5 (7.0), and noautorange set to 0 (1).
Arm MERL weapon [ARMTRUCK_ROCKET] turnrate reduced to 5632 (12615), flight time increased to 9.5 (7.0), and noautorange set to 0 (1).
Core Diplomat weapon [CORTRUCK_ROCKET] turnrate reduced to 5632 (12615), flight time increased to 9.0 (7.0), and noautorange set to 0 (1).
Arm Wombat weapon [ARMMH_WEAPON] turnrate reduced to 7168 (12615), flight time increased to 7.0 (6.0), and noautorange set to 0 (1).
Core Nixer weapon [CORMH_WEAPON] turnrate reduced to 7168 (12615), flight time increased to 7.0 (6.0), and noautorange set to 0 (1).
NOTE: This decrease in the tracking of the vertically launched rockets makes them only able to hit targets in approximately the outer 25% of their range. Previously they could hit targets in the outer 75% of their range.
Core Banisher model adjusted to put the turret higher up to help it avoid hitting obstructions on the ground when firing.
NOTE: This should help make it easier to fire over wreckage or even small bumps in the terrain than before.
Core Banisher and Arm Bolo weapon [TAWF_BANISHER] burnblow set to 1 (Not set previously) and weapontimer increased to 5 (3).
NOTE: The burnblow will allow it to hit an empty spot manually targeted on the ground instead of veering off to the side and then blowing up somewhere else.
May 9, 2025
TA:T v2.0 Beta 93:
Added new colors! We're trying out some new colors, but this requires removing some others, so this is what we're trying out for now:
Removed:
White
Green
Yellow
Black
Sky Blue
Tan
Red
Added:
Greyish Blue
Lime
Dark Green
Orange
Pink
Mustard
Darker Red
Feedback is welcome, since this is just something we're trying out. Thank you ChaoStorm for your hard work, and also Venom of ProTA for being a huge help in answering a lot of questions and pointing us in the right direction!
Added new megamap icons! Chaostorm has been working hard on adding category tages to 330 different units for the icons, as well as the icons themselves (Along with a lot of help from Wiffer!). This release comes with a TA.ini file and an Icons folder to replace the existing ones (We recommend backing up your existing Icons folder and TA.ini file). The icons are still a work in progress, but the idea is to help make units showing up on the megamap more useful and identifiable for strategic play. We'll need feedback on how visible they are, how easy they are to identify, etc. Also, remember that the new icons only show on the megamap for units you have line of sight on. Radar coverage will just show regular dots. You should still be able to turn off the new icons and use the normal ones if you want.
Thanks ChaoStorm and Wiffer!
Arm Spider and Core Bladewing weapon [ARM_PARALYZER] damage reduced to 30 (300) and the special damage to features reduced to 300 (1200).
NOTE: This reduces the paralysis time for each shot from 10 seconds to 1 second. The special damage to features was changed from 4x regular damage to 10x regular damage. This means a single Bladewing or Spider can keep a unit locked down if they fire on it continually, but it will unfreeze as soon as they stop. Of course, multiple shots from multiple units can still stack the paralysis, but each extra shot will only add an additional one second, instead of ten.
Arm Mumbo description changed to "Heavy Rapid-Fire Piercing Pulse-Laser Tank" ("Heavy Rapid-Fire Pulse-Laser Tank").
Arm Mumbo weapon [TAWF003_weapon] damage reduced to 19 (38), energy per shot increased to 22 (11), and noexplode=1 added.
NOTE: This makes the Mumbo weapon pierce through targets and features, much like the Arm Beamer does. In return, it does half the previous damage (As it can potentially hit a target multiple times on the way through), and costs twice as much energy to fire.
Core Termite weapon [CORE_TERMITE_LASER] area of effect increased to 64 (12), edge effectiveness reduced to 0.5 (1.0), energy per shot increased to 172 (86), damage increased to 324 (243), explosiongaf set to yellowboom (fx), and explosionart set to yellowboom (explode5).
NOTE: This doubles the energy cost per shot to give 33% more damage and a big (for a beam weapon) area of effect.
Fixed the build power for Arm and Core Advanced Shipyards being in the name of the unit instead of the description.
Fixed the Arm and Core Minelayer Nanolathe Turret description to show the correct build power of 60.
Core Oppressor weapon [OPPRESSOR_ROCKET] had "guidance" and "tracks" disabled.
NOTE: This means Oppressor rockets will not track.
February 14, 2025
TA:T v2.0 Beta 92:
Arm MRU energy cost increased to 58071 (34169) and build time reduced to 52791 (61600).
Core MRU energy cost increased to 56403 (35517) and build time reduced to 52604 (61437).
NOTE: This puts the Arm and Core MRU at standard energy and metal drain for advanced vehicles (Around 21 metal/second and 580 energy/second). This means they'll build somewhat more quickly, but also cost more energy than before. This is more energy than a Fusion costs, but also mobile and close to triple the armor.
Arm Pincer energy cost reduced to 1514 (2019).
Arm Pelican energy cost reduced to 9167 (12223).
Arm PomPom energy cost increased to 7671 (5114), speed increased to 1.7625 (1.41), and description changed to "Amphib AntiAir Laser KBot(1/3 dmg to non-air Fast/Maneuverable)" ("Amphibious Anti-Air Laser KBot (1/3 damage to non-air units)").
Arm Triton energy cost reduced to 19134 (25512).
Arm Marauder energy cost reduced to 24323 (32431).
Core Garpike energy cost reduced to 1555 (2073).
Core Gimp energy cost reduced to 12959 (17278) and speed increased to 2.0 (1.82).
Core Aries energy cost increased to 8072 (5360), build time reduced to 4847 (5819), speed increased to 1.6025 (1.282), and description changed to "Amphib AntiAir Laser KBot(1/3 dmg to non-air Fast/Maneuverable)" ("Amphibious Anti-Air Laser KBot (1/3 damage to non-air units)").
Core Shiva energy cost reduced to 26100 (34800).
Core Croc energy cost reduced to 9702 (12936).
Core Poison Arrow energy cost reduced to 28980 (38640).
NOTE: Amphibious units previously cost twice the standard energy for their metal cost. This change puts them at 50% more than standard, instead of 100% more. The Gimp speed was increased to put it at 10% slower than the Pelican, where it should have been. The Arm PomPom and the Core Aries were already at standard energy cost, despite being amphibious, so they were increased to 50% more than standard and given the standard 25% increase in speed. Also, the Aries, due to an error back in Beta 23, has had a 20% slower build time than it should since then, which was fixed.
Amphibious units can be nice to build even when not using them in the water, but the heavy energy cost made them harder to justify. For example, the Core Croc is roughly similar to the Panther in cost and role, but cost twice as much energy, which made it a lot harder to build in larger groups.
Some amphibious units remain at twice the energy cost, as they are specialized in other ways:
Arm Courier
Arm Sharpshooter
Arm Infiltrator
Arm Invader
Core Emissary
Core Skuttle
Core Parasite
Core Roach
Core Intruder
Arm Mumbo armor increased to 6114 (4076).
Arm Mumbo weapon [TAWF003_weapon] damage reduced to 38 (57).
Arm Triton armor increased to 6458 (4305).
Arm Triton weapon [ARM_MEDIUMCANNON] damage reduced to 269 (404).
Arm Demolisher armor increased to 9183 (6122).
Arm Demolisher weapon [ARM_HLIGHTNING] damage reduced to 269 (404).
Arm Bulldog armor increased to 19810 (9905).
Arm Bulldog weapon [ARM_BULL] damage reduced to 324 (648).
Core Reaper armor increased to 7450 (4967).
Core Reaper weapon [CORE_REAP] burst reduced to 8 (12) and burstrate increased to 0.08 (.04).
Core Poison Arrow armor increased to 10773 (7182).
Core Poison Arrow weapon [CORE_PARROW] damage reduced to 400 (600).
Core Termite armor increased to 10931 (7287).
Core Termite and Clasher weapon [CORE_TERMITE_LASER] damage reduced to 243 (364).
Core Clasher armor increased to 10901 (7267).
Core Goliath armor increased to 22404 (11202).
Core Goliath weapon [COR_GOL] damage reduced to 500 (1000).
NOTE: Advanced vehicles, battle tanks, specifically, seem to struggle to engage advanced defensive lines. Tanks, with their heavier armor and better speed, are usually a good choice in attacking defensive lines, and they seem to do well at T1, but T2 tanks were seeming somewhat lacking. This gives advanced tanks more armor at the cost of firepower, which shouldn't affect how they perform against other units, but should help them be better at surviving long enough to fire on defensive lines. This is only for battle tanks, not supporting vehicles. They get 50% more armor and have their firepower reduced by 50%, except for Bulldogs and Goliaths, which have double armor and half firepower situating them for potentially being good at cracking defensive lines.
This is an experimental change and might need adjusting.
Arm Sneaky Pete init_cloaked changed to 0 (1).
Arm Veil init_cloaked changed to 0 (1).
Shroud Castro init_cloaked changed to 0 (1).
Core Shroud init_cloaked changed to 0 (1).
NOTE: This means they won't automatically cloak as soon as you start to build them, which drained extra energy the whole time you were building them. The extra cloaking energy cost for the Sneaky Pete and Castro, for example, more than doubled their total energy cost to build. The downside is now the enemy can see what you're building, but this usually didn't come into play.
Arm Sneaky Pete metal cost reduced to 98 (206), energy cost reduced to 1500 (2008), and build time reduced to 4091 (6180).
Arm Veil metal cost increased to 490 (362), energy cost increased to 22500 (11151), and build time increased to 20455 (13516).
Core Castro metal cost reduced to 100 (218), energy cost reduced to 1600 (2238), and build time reduced to 4476 (6798).
Core Shroud metal cost increased to 500 (369), energy cost increased to 24000 (11895), and build time increased to 22360 (14788).
NOTE: This changes T1 and T2 jammers to be twice the metal and twice the energy cost of their radar equivalents, which makes the T1 jammers cheaper and the T2 jammers more expensive.
January 10, 2025
TA:T v2.0 Beta 91:
Reverted the Arm Guardian and Core Punisher models to the original, and then just scaled up the height of the base on the Guardian and the turret on the Punisher, leaving the rest of the models unscaled. The height of the turrets is also higher than in Beta 90 to help with some issues of shots hitting the ground prematurely before reaching the target.
Added CTRL_W to the Core Krow (Thanks Tasto!).
Added CTRL_W to the Arm Blade and Core Blackdawn.
Arm Anemone and Core Jellyfish weapon [COAX_DEPTHCHARGE] special damage to Arm and Core Commanders reduced to 1037 (1556).
Arm Crusader, Conqueror, and Spotter and Core Enforcer, Executioner, and Watcher weapon [DEPTHCHARGE] special damage to Arm and Core Commanders reduced to 342 (1026).
NOTE: This puts depthcharge damage at the default for Commanders, instead of doing extra damage as to other amphibious units.
Arm Atlas cruise altitude reduced to 80 (90).
NOTE: This matches the Core Valkyrie, which is already at 80.
Arm Dragonfly cruise altitude reduced to 200 (450).
Core Seahook cruise altitude reduced to 200 (450).
NOTE: This allows ground units to more easily target these heavy transports while they are hovering and carrying units, but it will also let them pick up or drop off units more quickly (Since they don't have to lower themselves as far to reach the ground
Core Seahook model size increased 33%.
NOTE: This just helps it match the Arm Dragonfly's size and better fit the size of an air transport able to carry even the heaviest units.
Core Oppressor weapon [OPPRESSOR_ROCKET] flighttime increased to 6.25 (4.75).
NOTE: As mentioned before for other vertically launched rockets, if Oppressors were above a target (Attacking a target below/south of themselves), the rockets have to turn around 180 degrees to hit the target below them, which means they take longer to get there. Due to this, and the lowered flighttime of the rockets, Oppressors couldn't hit a target south of them due to the rockets running out of fuel before hitting. If the Oppressors were close enough for the rockets to hit, they were too close for the rockets to successfully turn in time to hit the target. This should fix that.
Added Arm Retaliator, Detonator, and Protector and Core Silencer, Catalyst, and Fortitude to the respective Arm and Core Experimental (Gantry) Construction Vehicle build menus (Thanks ChaoStorm!).
Swapped the Core Krogtaar and Juggernaut spots on the Gantry build menu to better match up with the Arm Gantry build menu.
Arm Dragon's Claw damage modifer reduced to 0.167 (0.25) and description updated.
Core Dragon's Maw damage modifer reduced to 0.167 (0.25) and description updated.
NOTE: This makes Dragon's Claws and Maws 50% more armored when closed than before (6x instead of 4x). This strengthens their "damage or delay" role, similar to a mine field, in that an enemy can choose to safely engage them with artillery, but it will take a fair amount of time to destroy them, or they can engage them while open, but will take damage while doing so.
Arm Ambusher damage modifer reduced to 0.167 (0.25) and description updated.
Arm Annihilator damage modifer reduced to 0.167 (0.2) and description updated.
Arm Pit Bull damage modifer reduced to 0.167 (0.25) and description updated.
Arm PACKO damage modifer reduced to 0.167 (0.25) and description updated.
Arm Thunderstorm damage modifer reduced to 0.167 (0.2) and description updated.
Core Doomsday Machine damage modifer reduced to 0.167 (0.2) and description updated.
Core Toaster damage modifer reduced to 0.167 (0.25) and description updated.
Core Viper damage modifer reduced to 0.167 (0.25) and description updated.
NOTE: This reduces damage taken while underground or closed to 1/6 normal, effectively giving them 6x as much armor while armored up. Previously, most were 4x or 5x.
Removed DamageModifier tags on units that didn't have them enabled, so it was inactive:
Arm Metal Maker
Arm Advanced Fusion Reactor
Arm Scarab
Core Advanced Fusion Reactor
Core Berserker (Was already commented out)
Core Hedgehog
Core Metal Extractor
Arm Vanguard weapon [SHOCKER] damage increased to 1319 (1313), reload increased to 2.5 (2.489), explosiongaf set to "fx" ("mineboom"), and explosionart set to "explode2" ("mineboom").
NOTE: This sets the explosion animation to the same one used by the Arm Guardian, which is very similar in fire rate, damage, and range, and sets it to the same reload as well. The previous explosion animation gave the impression they were doing a lot more damage than they actually were.
Arm Metal Generator damage modifier reduced to 0.25 (0.5) and description set to "Cloaking Self-Powered Metal Maker (+2M) (Close for 4x Armor)" ("Cloaking Self-Powered Metal Maker (+2M)").
Core Metal Generator damage modifier reduced to 0.25 (0.5) and description set to "Cloaking Self-Powered Metal Maker (+2M) (Close for 4x Armor)" ("Cloaking Self-Powered Metal Maker (+2M)").
Core Juggernaut description changed to "(barely) Mobile Very Heavily Armored Penetrating Plasma Turret" ("(barely) Mobile Very Heavy Armored Penetrating Plasma Turret")
Increased the line of sight limit in the LOS.tdf file to 3000 pixels (Was 2000).
NOTE: This meant that Arm Advanced Radar and Sonar were getting their LOS slightly cut short, and LOS for Hyper Radars for both sides was truncated a fair amount.
Arm HyperRadar line of sight increased to 3000 (2625).
Core HyperRadar line of sight increased to 2727 (2386).
NOTE: Since HyperRadars can only be built by T3 constructors, this makes them nicer to have.
Arm Avatar description changed to "Mobile LRPC (Shorter-range faster-firing Big Bertha 3832E/shot)" ("Mobile LRPC (Shorter-ranged faster-firing Big Bertha weapon)").
Core Mauler description changed to "Mobile LRPC (Shorter-range faster-firing Intimidatr 3832E/shot)" ("Mobile LRPC (Shorter-ranged faster-firing Intimidator weapon)").
Arm Avatar and Core Mauler weapon [MOBILE_LRPC_CANNON] shakemagnitude reduced to 10 (20) and shakeduration reduced to 0.3 (0.6).
NOTE: This reflects their lower damage and also makes them less distracting when firing unless there are a lot of them.
Arm Sharpshooter description changed to "Amphibious Cloaking Tachyon Sniper Kbot (8732E/shot)" ("Amphibious Cloaking Tachyon Sniper Kbot").
Arm Sharpshooter weapon [ARMSNIPE_WEAPON] area of effect increased to 64 (32).
NOTE: This matches other heavy Tachyon weapons like the Annihilator weapon or the primary Doomsday weapon. It also makes it easier to hit targets just behind a wall or Dragon's Teeth.
Arm Jeffy armor reduced to 209 (305).
Arm Jeffy weapon [ARM_LASER] damage increased to 36 (27).
Core Weasel armor reduced to 263 (350).
Core Weasel weapon [CORE_LASER] damage increased to 40 (30).
NOTE: This puts Jeffies and Weasels back at half standard vehicle armor and double standard vehicle firepower. They'll give more firepower than the same metal spent in Flashes or Instigators, but with much less armor, making them best for raiding lightly defended or undefended targets and leaving before reinforcements can arrive.
