    The long awaited party system has finally made it's return onto SMASH, and it's better than ever! Dozens of bugs were fixed, new features and options were added and the accessibility of it all was greatly improved. Let's have a look at all the changes that were made, shall we?

    [IMG]
    • Removed all GUI's (except for in-match party features);
    • Revised all the text and chat formatting;
    • Added the possibility to deny invitations;
    • Made clickable chat messages for e.g. accepting or denying invitations.
    • Added the /party info or /p info command which shows your current party's details. There will be several options only visible to the party leader.
      [IMG]
    • You can no longer join an arena when the amount of players in your party exceeds the amount of slots the selected map has.
    • Once you have joined a party, you will be unable to start any new games. Only the party leader will be able to.
    • Using /q or /quit will no longer remove you from the party.
    • If you are in a party and there is already a match running, you can now join the arena using the game sign.
      Alternatively, the party leader can use the new command /party bring or /p bring. This will pull all the players in the party who are outside the arena into the match. This can also be done when the match is already running. Players inside the arena will remain unaffected.
    • When receiving multiple invitations, the system will now recognise whose invitation you accept or deny.
    • Upon using /party (/p) or /party help (/p help) you will be given a clear help menu of every command there is for you to use as the old one was let's call it.. ineffective. [IMG]
    • Party matches will now close when the party leader leaves the game.
    • You can no longer transfer leadership of your party over to someone who doesn't own a party pass.
    • When the party leader leaves the party, it will no longer select a new leader. The party will be disbanded.
    • In order to avoid stuff going wrong, you can now only create a party in the lobby.
    • You can no longer request to join a party by right-clicking a sign. The only way to join is by an invitation of the leader.
    NEW FEATURE: The long requested "Time" feature has finally be added! You can now change the match duration from 1 to 25 minutes using the "Change Time" signs that have been placed on every map.

    Thanks to your lightningfast feedback and bug reports, we were able to squish some nasty bugs who were trying to spoil all the fun. Good work team!
    • Fixed empty party games. You can no longer get an arena stuck by pausing the countdown and leaving.
    • You are no longer able to use /party promote on players that are not in your party.
    • Arenas closing when the initial party leader leaves after transferring leadership to someone else.
    • IN PROGRESS: Disengaging when grabbed turning you 180 degrees around
    We have been made aware of an issue that occasionally causes normal punches to deal 20 damage. We currently have not located the cause or have found recreation steps. If you encounter this bug, please try to recreate it and report it here. Thanks in advance!

    Fixing something usually means breaking something else. Here are some fixes and changes we applied with the party system update.
    • Fixed the issue with giving XP per kill. You will now receive the right amount.
      - Custom match: 10XP (30XP with Platinum multiplier)
      - Unranked match: 15XP (45XP with Platinum multiplier)
      - Ranked match: 30XP (90XP with Platinum multiplier)
    • Fixed the boss bar getting stuck on match countdowns or ranked queue. It will now reset back to the lobby text.
    • Changed the login message when you join the server. It will now tell you what your ELO is, what rank on the leaderboard you have and how many days there are left in the current season.
    • Temporary ranked locks will now display the right amount of days left in a season and will expire properly.
    • As per the outcome of the Map Purge polls, the following maps were removed and added:
      Removed
      - Abandonded Bridge
      - Corrupted
      - Dark Castle
      - Ice
      - Lava Spire
      - The Ship
      - White Chapel

      Added
      - Smashmas
      - Hourglass
      - Gingersnap
    On behalf of the SMASH Team, have fun and keep on smashing!

    Good update for the party system, only thing I want is to not be limited to the fixed map slots when your playing with a big party. Sometimes you just wanna go do a small thinlayered map with explosions that only allows 4 players, There isn't much problem with players spawning ontop of eachother as thats usually only a one time thing at the beggining of a round and it really isn't much of a problem anyway.
