Overview

Billboards are a panel of information visible above the spawn points of a map during a build phase. Basic information is visible by default and a more detailed view can be seen when a player holds the 'SHIFT' button (by default).

Basic View

The Basic View of the Billboard appears over each spawn point during the Build Phase of each wave. On the Basic View a player can see the name of the lane, the type of resistance the lane will focus on, the number of enemies spawning from the spawn point, and a color to show the relative intensity of the spawn point.

Colors

The color that appears under the name of the lane shows a relative intensity of Enemies that will spawn in that lane for the wave. The color of a lane can change every wave. There are 6 different colors:


  • Green shows a basic lane that should not pose any additional threat to the player's defense.

  • Blue shows a lane with more enemy variety than the Green lane, but still does not pose a large threat to the player.

  • Magenta show a lane that will focus on a large number of 1 type of enemy.

  • The 3 shades of orange show increasing intensity of mobs spawning. These lanes are the ones that players should prioritize for upgrades and focus for the upcoming wave.
