Warside

There were a few extra features we intended to include in the 1.6 Creators' Update, but they didn't quite make it. This patch adds the final few and fixes issues reported since then.New FeaturesWe've added a new Mission Browser to the editor. This replaces the previous "file picker" style popups with something friendlier. The new UI is fully controller-compatible and offers more options directly from the mission list.The browser will search common locations, but if you had previous maps in a custom folder, you will need to copy them to your game directory if they are no longer found.New missions created via the Editor will be automatically cloud-saved. This prevents you from losing your missions if you have computer issues, but also means you can seamlessly switch between desktop and Steam Deck for editing, and all your in-progress missions will be synced.There is a new Resize Map window, with a real-time preview of the changes, and full controller support. This now means every part of the editor is usable via controller or Steam Deck.Other improvements include:Added an option to lock the cursor to the window when using windowed mode. It is disabled by defa

Commanders!Welcome to v1.6 – The Creators’ Update, a release focused on empowering map authors, improving content discovery, and continuing to refine the core Warside experience.Whether you’re building or battling, this update makes it all smoother and more accessible.Skirmish UpdatesWe've overhauled Skirmish mode to make it easier to play maps made by our community members. Any missions you currently have in progress will now appear at the top of the Skirmish browser, allowing you to quickly resume where you left off. No more digging through the Community Browser to find that map again.Community missions now also track and display your highest achieved rank, just like official missions. You’ll see these rankings directly in the Community Browser, making it easier to track your performance across different maps.We’ve also improved how in-progress missions are managed:You can now delete progress on any mission, removing it from your active list without restarting it.Missions will only be marked as “in progress” if you actually play them. Jumping in and immediately leaving won’t clutter your list.We've added a new filter to search for missions by name.To help highlight the

A new widget has been added to the bottom left corner to show terrain and unit info for the object currently under the cursor.The green highlighted area for movement is now a higher contrast green when playing on Ice environment missions to aid readability.Maps that defined a custom max-health for a unit can longer set this value to 0. Existing maps set to 0 will convert this value to a new minimum of 10% hp.Fixed missing background on multiplayer lobby screen.Fixed a crash that could occur when changing screen resolution whilst the "mini-menu" was open in-game and displaying a battle power with a name longer than 2 lines.Fixed a crash when opening the Skirmish menu and immediately closing it whilst the list of popular maps was still loading.Fixed a camera lockup that could occur when the mouse was left at (0, 0) whilst also using a controller for input. This was more common when using certain streaming software.

Commanders!Update 1.5 has landed, and with it comes a major balance pass for Warside. This update is all about fine-tuning the battlefield: smoothing out difficulty spikes, refreshing underused strategies, and laying the groundwork for a more balanced Warside experience.Balance Update – Better Choices, Better BattlesWe’ve taken a close look at how players are approaching units and Battle Powers across all game modes, and have made a number of adjustments aimed at encouraging more diverse play. We're also aiming to make a wider variety of playstyles viable in multiplayer games.These changes aren’t intended to completely shake up the current meta, but to better steer gameplay towards our original design goals. Highlights include:Infantry-type units were generally underutilised for everything other than capture. All specialised infantry have been buffed to better encourage their use. The standard Infantry unit remains unchanged.The Boomtruck now lives up to its name and explodes with 1-tile radius splash damage.The trusty Tank has long been a staple of every player's army, but it's a bit too versatile, and we want to see a better mix of units in play. Its base attack ha
