Greetings agents, and welcome to update 2335! Listen up, because this update focuses on some key aspects of sneaking around in Intruder including sounds, glass, map updates, and more!

General Updates

These are changes that don't pertain to a specific map or were not big enough to warrant their own section, but are still good to know about.

• Notes - Notes now display text and can be read from a distance.

• Decoys - Decoys can now be placed much faster (1.5 -> 0.55 second cooldown).

• Armor - Armor walking noises have been reduced in volume by 15%.

• Hack Terminals - Terminals now have more text and flavor text when hacking. If the terminal transmits to a status monitor, an additional transmitting graphic has been added.

• Mapmaker - Mapmakers can now allow falling package captures, add a cooldown between activator activations, enable unity events for terminal hacks, and add the transmitting graphics to terminals.

Glass

Whether or not you prefer to shoot, blast, or punch your way through glass, this update brings about some major changes to how glass works in Intruder.

• Glass particles now have updated graphics to look more like real shards of glass.

• Glass particles are now discrete and physical objects which means they will no longer fall through floors and interact with the environment accordingly.

• Glass now has a different pitch when it breaks depending on the size of the pane.

Sounds

For a game where silently sneaking past your opponents and listening in on conversations is a pivotal part of the experience, we noticed that Intruder felt a bit empty in terms of sound and have brought in some new sounds for your listening pleasure!

Spatial Sounds

These new sounds can be heard by everyone around you, so listen in to try and gain intel on the enemy!

• Grenade Impact - CS, Smoke, and Concussion Grenades now make noise when bouncing off of surfaces.

• Laser sensor - Now makes a noise when sticking to a surface.

• Shield - Now makes noises when falling down after being knocked out of someone's hands.

• Package - Dropping a package off your back now makes a noise as it hits the floor.

• Banana - How loud is a banana peel falling on the floor? Now you can find out as bananas now make noise on impact!

• Cardboard Decoy - Decoys landing on the floor now make noise.

• Hack Terminals - All terminals now have a fan noise that is audible when nearby.

• Hacking - Hack terminals now use mechanical keyboards and HDD's that make noise when hacking.

• Smoke - Smoke grenades now make noise as the smoke is released from the canister.

• Bullet Casings - Discarded shells now make noise as they bounce around.

First Person Sounds

These new sounds can only be heard by the player making them, so don't feel like you have to be completely silent all the time.

• Equipping Guns - All guns have unique equip sounds.

• Equipping Gadgets - Most gadgets now make a standard equip sound.

• Pickups - Armor and Guns now make a unique sound when being picked up.

• Deployment - Deploying the Cardboard Decoy or Banana now makes a unique sound.
