Ratatan v0.2.20 Adds Pyokorappa and Fixes Multiplayer Crashes

Ratatan patch v0.2.20 introduces the Pyokorappa character and Assault Cobun unit alongside critical multiplayer stability fixes and combat adjustments.

Ratatan version v0.2.20 adds playable units, adjusts combat behavior, and addresses multiplayer crashes.

New Characters and Units

Players can select Pyokorappa, voiced by Sally Amaki, and the Assault Cobun unit. Unlocking Utility Enhancement allows these units to be used with other Ratatans. Enemies now drop lances, and phase rewards occasionally yield two or more Cobun units. The Assault Cobun uses a lance for ranged vanguard attacks, though it has lower health than the Soldier Cobun and requires careful positioning with formation commands.

Multiplayer and Stability Fixes

Multiplayer stability has received improvements, though work is ongoing. If any player disconnects during a session, all participants are returned to the title screen. Bugs causing crashes during attack commands and when returning to the Rataport from a level are fixed. Other fixes resolve issues where characters kept sliding after knockback, mob enemies leaped erratically or continued chasing Cobun, and other players in the Rataport became unresponsive.

Interface and Movement Adjustments

The save data screen layout is updated, and the button design for moving between the sortie and inventory screens in the Rataport has changed. In-game jump behavior for the Ratatan has been adjusted. A bug causing broken screen displays when repeatedly pressing the back button on the sortie screen is resolved, along with an issue causing repetitive terrain or enemy placements.

Why this patch matters

Version v0.2.20 delivers character options while tackling online stability issues, though synchronization remains a work in progress.
