KeeperFX - Test builds for version 0.4.9

[YourMaster]

Alpha period over: Go download the beta from here: https://keeperklan.com/threads/7368

---

KeeperFX 0.4.8 has been released, so work has started on version 0.4.9. For that, it helps if people play with the new software and tell us about bugs and other problems.

Due to a different file structure going forwards, to play with the new 'Alpha builds', I have not made an update package from 0.4.8. Instead, download the full 0.4.9 Alpha starter pack here:

==== Download to get started first ====
-- mirror --

Install this like you would any version of KeeperFX. You cannot bring over your save files or settings from 0.4.8.
Do not overwrite an older version with this pack, it will lead to conflicts and crashes.

If you have that test build installed update it with the latest version. The v2215 is not the latest, new versions are posted below with their change log.
So after that click this link to find the latest version and download a small update pack and extract it over the main download, or go to my last post in this topic for the direct link.
Those patches come with a file called '_keeperfx.cfg', this can be renamed to 'keeperfx.cfg' to get the latest configuration settings. For music check the readme file in the '/music' folder.

Please feel free to share any feedback. You can often find me on the Keeperklan Discord too.

"One-click-build" is a very useful feature. It seems to work well.

However, there is a problem with Korean.



Copying gtext_kor.dat from 0.4.8 works.

However, it seems that the text is missing from the key setting.



In English, this is the part that comes out.



Thank you.

I need some new translations. So if you could add whatever is missing to this file: https://raw.githubusercontent.com/dk...g/gtext_kor.po
I would love to include it in the next alpha.

EDIT: I checked, I did include the languages files as build, and I get the same problem as you do. I'll investigate this, and provide the fix when I have it.
EDIT2: I fixed it, here's the fixed file: https://keeperfx-loobinex.keeperklan.../gtext_kor.zip It's still missing the new translations of course.

I've uploaded a new version: Alpha 2224.

What's new:

• Fixed recent bug (856) that allowed you to sell enemy traps with the one-click-sell feature
• Fixed recent bug (851) that allowed you to possess units even if you did not have access to the power
• New script command: USE_POWER_AT_LOCATION
  - What was USE_POWER_AT_LOCATION is now USE_POWER_AT_SUBTILE
• Added classic flame breath to legacy configs
  - Playing ancient keeper or any other legacy maps will now have the dragon with overpowered flamebreath in possession
• Increased threshold for 'thing limit' warning message to appear
• It's now possible to use the keyboard shortcut to query enemy units you captured

On an unrelated note, there's many people contributing to KeeperFX nowadays. To see who did what you can see the commits by clicking 'What's new' above. But here is a list of contributors.

Thank you.

gtext_kor.zip

I translated the rest.

Thank you.

No thank you, I added your translations.

Unfortunately, I noticed the originals were still lacking from numbers 996 to 1005. Could you be so kind as to translate these too?
Also, I noticed you made numbers 969 to 975 in English, why?

Here is the updated file:

I've uploaded a new version: Alpha 2232.

What's new:

• New Dungeon Special: Mysterious Box
  - It sets a script flag for the player who claims it, BOX#_activated, where # is the number of the box
  - Can be set by placing the Statue6 object with Adikted, will always get # set as 0. Wait for an Adikted Update for it to be better integrated.
  - Map makers can use it to make a special do whatever he wants.
• Several new and updated script commands:
  - ADD_OBJECT_TO_LEVEL: Mapmakers can now place objects with the level script
  - ROOM_AVAILABLE: You can now set rooms to become available/researchable when claimed, saving on IF-statements
  - With IF statements you can now compare BOX#_ACTIVATED flags from players.
  - ADD_TO_FLAG and SET_TO_FLAG: These can now set CAMPAIGN_FLAGS too, as well as the new BOX#_ACTIVATED flags and the regular flags.
  - There's a new 'TRIGGERED_OBJECT' location, for commands that have a location/action_point to for example spawn units. It's the location of the last activated Mystery Box.
  - USE_SPECIAL_INCREASE_LEVEL, USE_SPECIAL_MULTIPLY_CREATURES, USE_SPECIAL_MAKE_SAFE, USE_SPECIAL_LOCATE_HIDDEN_WORLD
• Translation updates
• Fixed an error in trapdoor.cfg that placed an error in the log

Hey, installed the game after a couple of years. Just wanted to say its a very great improvment than last time i played it. Also you forgot to put Heroic Invasion II in the classic level section, there is only hero invasion I

[YourMaster]

Nice to hear, thanks. I've just put a handful of maps in, I would love to add a set of only properly made maps. Did not feel like actively going through them all at this time, so read an old topic of mine where I placed short reviews to pick a few. I'm would be very happy to hear from people which maps really deserve to be there. Or if I put maps there that shouldn't be there.
