Spectator Mode

  • Fixed an issue causing incorrect animations to play when objects other than players, such asInkrails orSplash Walls were damaged while viewing a particular player's perspective.
  • The sound effect that plays when taking damage during regular play now also plays when viewing that player's perspective in spectator mode.

Multiplayer

  • Fixed an issue where, under the following conditions, players would only receive the benefit ofInk Resistance Up when stacking it to maximum effect.
    • Moving while shooting a weapon in theshooter category.
    • Moving while shooting a weapon in thedualie category.
    • Moving while preparing to throw asub weapon.
  • When storing a charged shot with acharger, swimming into enemy ink and being returned to kid form now allows players to maintain the charge they had stored.
  • Fixed an issue preventing players using a charger from shooting when pressing again after releasing the button once a stored charged shot had expired.
  • Decreased the knock back distance when coming into contact with aroller that has run out of ink or is in mid-air.
  • Fixed an issue causing the aiming reticule to display outside the center of the screen when moving the camera and using a Roller orbrella-type weapon.
  • Fixed an issue causing Brellas to shoot in an off-center direction when shooting them while moving the camera.
  • Fixed an issue causing a discrepancy in movement speed while trying to shoot a Brella-type weapon with no ink remaining, as opposed to shooting a Brella with ink in the ink tank.
  • Fixed an issue causing Slosher-type weapons to shoot ink from a higher position than they appeared to.
  • Fixed an issue occasionally allowing opposing players standing behind aSplash Wall to be splatted when a bomb hit the edge of the wall.
  • Fixed an issue causingCurling Bombs to lose speed inappropriately when thrown on sloping surfaces.
  • Fixed an issue causing bombs not to ink the floor when exploding at the very edge of a stage.
  • Fixed an issue causing the predicted range of the sub weapon to incorrectly display when readying anInk Storm special while also equipped with either aPoint Sensor orToxic Mist sub weapon (Rapid Blaster Pro orSplattershot Pro).
  • Fixed an issue causing the inking effect of an Ink Storm special to occur unnaturally when the storm intersected with a roof or other similar object in a stage.
  • Bubbles from theBubble Blower that burst after the end of a match will no longer ink the stage.
  • Fixed an issue causing movement speed while firing the Bubble Blower to vary depending on whichmain weapon was equipped.
  • InRainmaker mode, equipping weapons such as theE-liter 4K andDynamo Roller will no longer lower movement and swim speed while holding the Rainmaker.
  • Fixed an issue in Rainmaker mode in which splatting a player holding the Rainmaker while they were jumping caused the Rainmaker to reappear not in its fixed location, but where the player had started their jump.
  • Fixed an issue inThe Reef causingSuction Bombs and other objects thrown onto the area around the central bridge to sink inside it.
  • Fixed an issue inInkblot Art Academy causing players readying a roller or brella at specific locations in the stage to fall through it.
