Summary (AI)

Genome Guardian 2 patch 0.6.1 adjusts the "Plane" platform's health max to +20% and enhances the "Bipod" mod by increasing range and accuracy bonuses to +60%, while improving its interaction with platform speed and turret rotation. The "Channel" gadget now fully reduces speed to -100% while active. Endless Mutations see increased buffs, with Exalted Microbe health and weight raised to +300%, Enraged Microbe damage doubled, and Momentum's speed growth rate doubled. Various weapon fixes address issues with effects and behaviors, while quality-of-life improvements include smoother microbe DNA spawn curves in BROOD Mode, corrected navigation in gamepad controls, and updates to the research menu. Additional bug fixes cover stomp mechanics, untranslated text, and beginner tutorial issues.
