v0.4.0 · Kiting, grounds and fusion

11 November 2026

Your bot learns to back away and kite, six grounds change the fight in their zones, and fusion keeps the best of three items.

New

Step back — Your bot backs away from the nearest monster, facing it. Distance, My speed and Target speed tell it when, and the wiki's Kiting article shows how.

Grounds — Water, fire, thin ice, thorns, mud and glitch, each with its own sound, lie in some camps and boss lairs. They slow, burn, chill or hit you, not monsters.

In hazard and Move out — A new condition sees an active ground under you, after your bot's latency, and Move out walks you out by its nearest edge.

Fusion — Fusing three pieces of equipment keeps their best, for gold. Before paying, the preview shows what is sure and what will be rolled. Each step has its own sound.

Potion belt — Each potion has its own slot on a belt in the character window, filled by the merchant and the chest. Potions no longer take bag space.

Hotfix door — A door now stands in the village. It stays locked until you beat the Game Master, then opens the Hotfix Points tree.

Monsters — Monsters that chase you speed up and strike as they reach you, and bosses always catch up. Kill monsters stops after a long time without a kill.
End of act 1 — The game pauses during the ban screen, then Help shows a minimal script to dive into Hotfixes, also in the library as Hotfix dive.
Loot and crafting — Everything drops at R0, and only equipment fuses to rank up. Crafting no longer fails, Artisan lowers prices, and the Sell block is back.
Items — Equip best items can now pick by DPS, damage or any affix. Item tooltips share one layout, and Alt shows one tier range per line.

Jeweler — Runewords show as runic items with full tooltips, runic items wear a rune-carved frame, and runes and gems get item tooltips with Alt and Left Ctrl.

Help — Long help texts leave the screens for the wiki. Only messages about what blocks you or what just happened remain.

Reflexes now count their latency from the end of a step, so an archer has time to shoot between steps.
Area waves now land exactly on the area an attack hits.
A tutorial lesson no longer asks you to Run while another one is waiting.
Alt no longer sticks on item tooltips.
+ 4 smaller fixes.
