Friends in your veins, cards with reach 📏

Lab report 🔬 Our virus has mutated again. Here is what changed in this strain:

🧬 New mutations

  • 🤝 The cell card shows what your friends send you: under every vein how much of it comes from friends, and on your cells a "From friends" tag.
  • 📊 Tap the growth pill at the top: it now splits your growth by hotspot, with what friends pump in, and a tap on a row flies you there.
  • 🎯 On your phone, the cell bar has a quick rally point button wherever there's no capsid to crack: one tap to set it, one to lift it.
  • 📏 Cards against enemies now have a reach: they only hit what lies near your cells, a higher tier reaches farther, and the aim hint tells you how far.

💪 Stronger strain

  • 🧽 Radierus, Wendehalsus and Warenkorbitis no longer need to touch your network, they work anywhere within reach. Cards that take something for you reach less far.
  • 🔀 Wendehalsus doesn't care which cell you tap first: whatever borders your network or another stolen cell gets a vein, the rest stands alone and withers until you connect it.
  • 🧪 Different boost cards now stack all the way down your veins, while the same card still multiplies a stream only once.

🩹 Bugs in quarantine

  • 🪞 Two of the same boost card with overlapping areas no longer double each other up.
  • 📜 Long pill tips scroll instead of running off the screen, and stay open while you read them.
  • 📱 With big text on small phones, the cell bar keeps your hotspot's name on one line and puts the count below.
  • 🔨 The "Crack it" bubble on phones puts its button under the text, so the text no longer squeezes into a narrow column.

Stay contagious! 🦠 Your Mad Scientist 🧑‍🔬
