Two groups of Achievements are introduced: Type 1. One-time achievements are unique to the game mode, and they mark unusual/hardcore/lucky moments in battle. Type 2. Progressive achievements - items tied to Hunter's stats and reflecting the player's experience in the game. Progressive achievements have an initial value. The stage of an achievement is updated, once the player reaches a corresponding threshold. Below is the example of a mock Progressive achievement grades: [list][*]1st stage Progressive achievement is given for 100 enemy Hunters eliminated; [*]2nd stage Progressive achievement is given for 200 enemy Hunters eliminated, including the result of the previous challenge.[/*] [/list] The following achievements are introduced in v0.29: [table] [tr] [th] [b]Type of achievement[/b] [/th] [td] [b]Name[/b] [/td] [td] [b]Description[/b] [/td] [/tr] [tr] [th] One-time [/th] [td] Survivor [/td] [td] Given to a player who survives the longest in a match.

[/*] [*] Introduced a new Teleport feature to the maps, along with corresponding VFX, SFX, and UI functionality. [/*] [/list] Teleport mechanics: [list] [*]There are pairs of linked teleports on the map and two-way traffic between the pairs of teleports A1, A2 and B1, B2.[/*] [*]The teleport is a circular zone with the Terminal in the middle.[/*] [*]Terminals are activated 30 seconds after a Level 2 Supply Pod has landed on the map, and their activation is accompanied by an announcement. [/*]In order to teleport a player needs to have a short interaction with the Terminal by pressing and holding E, after which a teleportation countdown (10,9,8...) is activated. [/*] [*]After a Terminal is activated, any Hunter standing in the teleportation zone when the countdown is over will be teleported to the linked Terminal. If a Hunter exits the teleportation zone at the moment the countdown finishes, the teleportation won't happen for this Hunter. [/*] [*]Once the Teleport is activated through a Terminal, exiting the zone does not stop the countdown for teleportation.[/*] [*]If a Hunter has just teleported one-way, this Hunter can use the Terminal to teleport back only after a 15-second cooldown period is over. If a Hunter exits the zone and is not teleported, no cooldown is applied, and this Hunter can activate the Terminal again. [/*] [*]Once the teleportation process is started via the Terminal, it cannot be interrupted.[/*] [*]Hunters gain invulnerability and cannot move for 2 seconds after teleporting.[/*] [/list] Players can see Terminals on the mini-map teleporters in two display states: [olist] [*]Inactive - a grey circle around the Terminal name (A1, A2, B1, B2) before the Teleport is activated by the Lvl 2 Supply Pod. [/*] [*]Active - a blue circle around the Terminal name (A1, A2, B1, B2).[/*] [/olist] [h2] [u]Maps[/u] [/h2] [list] [*]Supply Pod mini-map marker is now visible at any time.
