    • Win bonuses now account for team games: 10 xp, 5 gems to winning team
    • FFA win bonuses now account for number of players: e.g. loser of a 1v1 doesn't get a "second place" bonus
    • Gems earned from kills in a team game are split evenly across all players on that team
    • Match Complete rewards are now proportional to number of rounds played: 5 + 5 * rounds
    • If Mercy Rule is on, winning team receives 5 xp and 2 gems for each round skipped due to the rule
  • Team colors that are too similar are now automatically adjusted to be different enough to tell apart
  • Existing spells are now shown during the draft if you hold Shift or a Trigger
BUG FIXES
  • Fixed bug that caused some players to skip the loading screen and be able to move and attack before the round starts
  • Fixed Chain Lightning infinite run bug (was caused by a bounce target dying before getting hit, and the spell not resolving properly)
  • Fixed a bug where sometimes after a spell is drafted, the video doesn't line up with the selected spell
  • Made random draft mode actually pick spells randomly
  • Fixed bug in tutorial that would sometimes give you Bull Rush, making the tutorial impossible
  • Updated raycast system to not count trigger colliders, fixing issues with watercannon sometimes not hitting, or wizards being able to stand on trigger regions
  • Fixed a bug where gems earned from kills were counting twice in the score screen, but not in the database
  • Fixed bug where selecting a specific map in party only (or couch) may force that map every game for quickplay afterwards
  • Made it so F1 only takes you out of convention mode and loads the main menu scene if you are actually in convention mode when you press it
ADJUSTMENTS
  • Reverse priority for damage dealt draft order so higher damage with same kills gets draft priority; for final round, ordering switches back
  • Raised the level cap to 150
  • Adjusted Earth Tomb again so it doesn't block tsunami/vanguard and you can't cast spells through it at close range
  • Player order on teams is now randomized for spawning
