Chat messages were not showing up in replays, due to an oversight, which made another hotfix necessary.

With gratitude to all those who contributed to this patch and/or took the time to report issues,

Features

  • Right Clicking the toggle shield button now discharges shields (#7234).

Bug fixes

  • Fixed Faction index build condition for campaign platoons, causing some platoons not being built properly

  • Fixed distance check for picking the closest structure to build by the campaign AI

  • Fix damage and splash radius modifiers not applying to weapons such as nukes that have splash damage with falloff (#7245).

  • Fix chat messages not showing in replays (#7257).

AI

  • Allows T3Engineer OpAI builder for Aeon and Seraphim (#7253).

  • Add aibrain:AssignUnitToPlatoon() function for a single unit, where the table passed to AssignUnitsToPlatoon is cached and just the single unit swapped, just like how the IssueToUnit commands work (#7260).

Other changes

  • Add missing annotations to string functions (#7247).

  • Point StringJoin at table.concat, which provides the same behavior (#7247).

  • Point StringStartsWith at StringStarts; the two functions were previously duplicated due to an oversight (#7247).

  • Fix annotations in cinematics.lua (#7254).

  • Annotate the TauntManager class (#7255).
