• The Toon Resistance has had more time to move into their new space, and have taken to decorating the pipes.

Sellbot Field Offices

• The Boiler’s moves have been slightly rebalanced with some differing attack values, as well as being smarter depending on the current situation.

• The Boiler’s move accuracies have been slightly adjusted. Previously, accuracy increased with the difficulty tier of the Field Office, but only attack damage increases with each tier now.

• When more than 4 status effects are applied to any Toon or Cog in battle, a new icon will appear. Hover over this icon to see the rest of the applied status effects!

• Fixed a bug causing Cog facility buttons to turn solid colors.

• Fixed a battle movie bug where using a Toontanic alongside a Drop SOS card would cause the Toontanic to show up late.

• Fixed the infamous “Fluffy bug,” where Fluffy would appear instead of your Doodle far more often than intended. Fluffy will still appear in cases of server lag.

• Fixed a rare issue where a Remote Control’s effect would not enact before a lured Cog was defeated.

• Fixed a crash sometimes caused when entering a battle that every Toon had just run away from.

• Fixed a bug where SOS Toons would miss if another gag in the same track went first and missed.

• Fixed a bug that could cause gags to miss when crossing targets.

• Fixed a bug where status effects were removed if a Toon would have gone sad, but was saved by a Toon-Up Unite before being hit.

• Fixed a visual bug that would allow you select Trap gags, but not a target, when every Cog in battle was Lured or Trapped and both status effects were present.

• Fixed an issue where battles would be invisible upon entering an area, particularly affecting streets and the Sellbot Factory interior.

Audio

• The title screen music now remains in sync when fading between the two versions.

• Fixed various issues that could cause dynamic music to break when being disabled and re-enabled.

Make-a-Toon

• Many character accents can now be used when using Type-a-Name.

• When using a Toon Rewrite, you can now mix and match specialty colors. For instance, you can now have a black cat with periwinkle arms. As long as your Toon’s head, arms, or legs keep this specialty color after rewriting, you can still change any part of your Toon back to that color later.

Miscellaneous

• Doodles can now be re-named in the Pet Shop for a small fee!

• Added an additional gibberish word for cats and horses, bringing them up to the three words that other species have.

• Fixed an issue where Toons could be found dancing indefinitely after leaving a building that was later defeated.

• To elaborate, groups first created through ToonHQ will also appear as in-game boarding groups if ToonSync is enabled. Groups first created in-game will be pre-filled on ToonHQ should you wish to create a group afterwards.

• When a ToonSync-powered group is disbanded or enters the activity, the group is removed from ToonHQ auto-magically!

• Only messages from ToonSync-enabled ToonHQ accounts will appear in-game.
