Project Hero

Project Hero v0.14.2 — Max Steel Reforged + a new Squad menu

MAX STEEL — NEW SUIT, BUILT PIXEL BY PIXEL • Brand-new suit model: gunmetal armour with blue T.U.R.B.O. lines and violet accents. • Every Turbo Mode keeps the suit's blue and adds its own armour: – Strength: massive pauldrons, gauntlets, chest plate, power pack, knee guards, heavy boots – Speed: helmet crest, fins, forearm blades, back spoiler, heel spurs – Flight: swept-back wings on a thruster pack, helmet fins, ankle and arm jets (replaces the old elytra wings) • Nanotech animations: the suit forms one pixel at a time out of the T.U.R.B.O. core in your chest, a glowing band of nanites sweeping over you, undersuit first, armour plates last. – Armour up: fist to the core, then arms thrown wide (now 2 s, was 1.25 s) – Power down: the suit draws back into your chest from your hands, feet and head – Mode swaps: the new form rebuilds over the old one from the chest out, with a quick flex

CONTROLS • H is now the ONLY transform key: H to Go Turbo, H again to power down (not while IN COMBAT). • N no longer transforms. R/G/X/Z/V/C no longer suit you up; unsuited they remind you to press H. • The helmet toggle moved to Shift+H.

TURBO BLAST (R) • Damage 10 → 15. • The bolt now has a real model: a white-hot lance of blue energy with spinning vanes, growing with the charge. • New charging: hold R and an energy orb forms in your fist as your arm raises to aim. It grows through 3 stages over 2 s, with a chime at each stage and orbiting sparks. • Full charge: 34 damage (was 22), then a 17-damage burst over 3.5 blocks (was 2.5). • Recoil animation on every shot.

TURBO CANNON (C) — REWORKED • No more launching yourself as a cannonball. It's now a real blue ARM CANNON. • Hold C: the cannon forms over your right forearm pixel by pixel, you brace and aim, and it charges for up to 3 s. • Lock-on: while charging it locks onto the enemy nearest your crosshair. Blue brackets close in around the target. • Release C to fire a piercing beam at the lock, or exactly where you aim: – 16–45 damage to everything the beam passes through – an explosion at the far end for almost half that again, over 2.5–5 blocks – The longer the charge, the wider, stronger and costlier the shot. It never breaks blocks. • Recoil pushes you back, unless you're in Strength. • Let go too early and it folds away for free. • Works in every mode, even mid-flight, and no longer drops you to Base. 8 s recharge, shown on the HUD.

MAX STEEL HUD — REDESIGNED • Every bar is now a thin hairline bar. • Top to bottom: – ability keys (cooldowns drain up each box) – MAX STEEL and IN COMBAT / READY – the mode row: Base · Flight · Strength · Speed · Stealth – T.U.R.B.O. % – Turbo Cannon charge + lock, or its recharge – Turbo Blast charge with stage notches – Going Turbo / Powering Down • Hold Left Alt for move names. Unsuited, a compact version shows your energy and "H — Go Turbo".

SQUAD MENU (P) — REDESIGNED • A framed panel tinted in your squad's colour. • The header shows the squad name (a crown if you lead), your role, who's online and a 12-slot capacity bar. • Every member gets a card: – their face and a hero tag – a smooth health bar with a damage trail and gold absorption – coordinates – distance with a compass arrow that turns as you look (or their dimension) – a hover tooltip • Low-health squadmates pulse red, and offline ones are greyed out at the bottom. • Scroll with the wheel or arrow keys. P closes the menu again. • New Commands tab lists every /squad command; click one to type it into chat.

GUIDEBOOK • Max Steel chapter rewritten: the suit, the HUD, the H controls, the new Blast and Cannon. • Squads chapter updated for the new menu. • The overview now includes Moon Knight and the Hulk.
