v.0.6 is Released!

New version 0.6 available here - add comment if cannot be downloaded.

See this article to know how to install it. Practically, just unzip and type in a command prompt: java -jar bloodbowl-0.6.jar. Should be easy 😀

If you want to use 'Bot Bowl' interface, see this blog article, but in Bot Bowl, this AI is slightly less good and some skills are not implemented or properly tested.

To summarize:

Very very few changes compared to 0.5. This release is done mainly for BotBowl competition. It was mandatory to correct a crash in version 0.5.

In 0.5 there was also a very annoying rare crash that freezes the game - hard to reproduce. Maybe the bug is corrected. If not, new debug information should help to find the issue.

Final change log:

Version 0.6

This version is very similar to 0.5 but is released to participate to BotBowl V.

Bug correction

- In previous version, there is a very blocking bug where UI can freeze. This version contains small modifications to try to solve it and to add debug information if the bug still occurs;

- A re-roll done during a block always counted for 2 re-roll;

- Sometimes after a match, clicking on 'End Turn' to exit the game was not working. This was blocking the game;

AI improvements - specific to 'Bot Bowl'

- There was a regression in the previous version (0.5) that leads to a crash when AI has to select a square to push;
