Major Enhancement To Salvo! In The Works!

Discussion Board on this Wargame news



By far the most requested feature for Salvo! is the ability to play against other live captains, and developer Spruegames has been hard at work making it possible. The enhancement is now at a point where final testing can begin and we need your help! Shrapnel Games is looking for a number of testers (both Windows and Mac) who own Salvo! and want to play multiplayer games to test out the netcode. It is TCP/IP based and will allow both LAN and Internet play. Additionally, hotseat and PBEM will be added.

Interested parties can apply for the gig by dropping Mindi Arnesen a line at mindi@shrapnelgames.com. Potential testers should be aware that a thorough run- through of all scenarios will be required, to ensure that there are no unknowns when the patch is released for public consumption. When emailing please let her know what OS
you are running, so we have an even mixture for test purposes.

While the multiplayer enhancement is the biggest feature being worked on, rather than just leave it at that Spruegames is also adding several other cool features, and correcting the few bugs that slipped by. Some of these new features and bug smashing include:

* A battle generator, allowing players to select specific maps and ships (or generate their own fleets), set the weather, and more.
* Battle tweaker. Change ship locations and build squadrons.
* Fog error on some systems now fixed.
* Adjusted damage levels.
