MatchboxPlugin

[0.9.4] - Latest Release (Ability System)

This stability release marks the end of the rapid iteration phase for the plugin. It's mostly an under-the-hood update, modularizing the project and extending the last update's Spark ability system to also fit the medic (supporting future ability additions).

There is also a new ability for the spark Delusion, which is a fake infection that stays for 30 seconds after application, that the medic can see.

Other additions mainly focus on stability and ensuring the game is fully playable with all features working as intended (The infamous buggy Steve skin override).

Lastly, there has been an update to the default config, setting the random skin toggle to false by default and setting the Steve skin toggle to true by default.
