Bug Fixes

Gameplay

• Fixed enemies sometimes frozen after a Fling Slam.
• Fixed Rat King sometimes frozen after being defeated.
• Fixed Krang’s torso sometimes leaving the screen. You can sing it: “Krang-no-loooon-ger leeeeea-ving theeeeee-screen!”
• Fixed Dirtbag sometimes stuck in its Blinding Flash attack.
• Fixed some player attacks granting immunity to falling down holes, performed over a hold, resulted in a near-instantaneous KO for the player.
• Fixed the Dive Kick attack sometimes getting the player stuck when landing on edges.

Online

• Fixed clients sometimes stuck in a cutscene.
• Fixed many connection issues at the beginning of stages that could result in desyncs and missing players.
• Fixed a few crashes caused by packet loss or lag, resulting in incomplete attack, player or camera data. Bodacious!
• Fixed clients ignoring enemy grab cancellation (when a player grabs for too long or an enemy is too healthy to grab).
• Fixed clients interrupting a Grab with a Super Attack, leaving enemies stuck in their Grab reaction.

• Fixed client-side Buzzer having a hard time doing U-turns.
• Fixed client-side Motorcycle Foot Soldiers sometimes frozen on screen before attacking.
• Fixed client-side Splinter’s Super Flying Attack not increasing your Hit Counter and Score. He is a radical rat!
• Fixed online lag during boss fights sometimes breaking the boss’ behavior resulting in the fight getting impossible to finish (boss disappearing, for example).
• Fixed online game search no longer working after a failed search.
• Fixed connection issues occurring after the end game cutscene.
