**YAPPING**

I said I was only going to do spaced out large content updates, but there were some bugs/balance changes that needed to be addressed
and doom and bubble were already complete and fully in the game files so I decided to release them early.

We have found the issue is steam nick names,

HAVE THE HOST CLEAR EVERYONES NICKNAMES

I added checks that kick you for name spoofing so that it was harder for cheaters to dodge the blocklist,
but if the host has nicknames for players sent there will be a mismatch in the official steam name so they will be auto kicked,

i am working on a fix sorry!

a bug where players were unable to join their friends lobbies because they would be incorrectly kicked by anticheat checks

a bug where freeze/wisp could cause someone to become immune to fireball until frozen again

a bug where players with low fps would die from fall dmg after respawning

fixed freeze sfx

frogs nerfed

bug related to public lobby finder

more anticheat based changes

trying to fix bugs where fireball would oneshot due to incorrect server damage checks

fixed a bug where the 1v1s would not show the victory screen

trying to fix a bug where freeze was not hitting correctly

people on this version will still be able to play with people on the previous version the only person these changes matter for is the host, so if the host has updated all players will have the above changes

fixed a bug where spell pages had no cooldown after 2 minutes

fixed a bug where players would start at spell level 8

freeze, magic missle, and thunderbolt voice detection improvements

the region size to find matches has been increased to the max so regions with lower playercounts should be able to find games now, i will be monitoring if this causes ping issues

permanent blocklist for hosts and a (hopefully) always working kick option

anti cheat measures, not sure how effective these will be long term, but it will break a lot of the currently available public cheats hopefully

option to clear custom flags in settings and disable them for the match in the join team screen

golems are now killable with melee weapons

worm hole lasts much longer at early levels

freeze damage nerfed late game

bug fixes

There is no new content this patch but stuff is on its way. I would rather do more spaced out large updates with lots of new stuff to do than frequent small updates that only add one or two new spells. The goal is that every once in a while people see theres a new mage arena update and can hop on for a few games to mess around with all the new stuff.

TRYING TO FIX:

Bugs where players could not cast spell pages,
Teams could not respawn if their flag was only half captured,
Dungeon Skeletons would not initialize correctly and would teleport around and be invisible,
You would spawn with your book equipped but it would not be visible

Frog soup nerf
Removed fire bowl after adding it to help british people but it was misfiring too frequently
Added framerate cap settings

still trying to improve lobby finder
trying to make freeze detect more often
fix mountain wind bug
trying to fix spell page not working bug (I do not think I was successful though but hard to test)
trying to fix invisible renderers bugs
