Building - No longer defaulting to placing prefabs as physics when only copying some specific bricks from a physics grid.

Bugs - Fixed crash when prefab fails to cache. - Fixed crash capturing prefab on dedicated server. - Fixed crash capturing prefab thumbnail when the prefab contains a bot spawn on a physics grid. - Fixed crash when applicator dialog is viewing a brick component while replicating additional components. - Fixed brick rendering corrupting when pasting prefab due to bad parallel coverage update. - Fixed trace scene corruption when trying to set the velocity of a frozen entity. - Fixed check against NaN object positions not actually working on world load. - Fixed being able to create an unlimited number of bot ragdolls from a single spawner. - Fixed pasting prefabs into detached mode misaligning them often. - Fixed pasting prefabs into detached mode not working on physics grids. - Fixed being switched into detached mode even when prefab did not paste. - Fixed broken "at target" output on servo bearings.

The new version is still less stable than what we consider acceptable. As such, it will not be deployed to the main branch this week as we had planned.

Leon

Changelog CL12026 (EA2 Preview Patch)

Bugs - Fixed crash when client with active selection leaves server. - Fixed crash when equipping a tool while loading into the server. - Fixed several crashes due to prefab archives being garbage collected while waiting for async work. - Fixed several crashes and physics corruption due to prefab finalization tasks sometimes running during the physics tick.

Leon

Changelog CL12032 (EA2 Preview Patch)

Selector - The unfinished spread selection mode (used by left-clicking in connection mode without holding alt) has been removed due to its high likelihood of unintentionally selecting vastly more bricks than intended, bad performance, and limited usefulness. We will revisit this at a later time. The ability to select entities and contraptions remains.

Bugs - Fixed being unable to copy and paste on a dedicated server.

Leon

working on some additional weapons, such as this laser cleaver (sounds are currently placeholder)

Leon

as a bonus, here's an extremely early test of a magic weapon and a drinkable potion which replenishes the player's mana (with placeholder VFX, UI, and sounds)

Leon

later on once weapon resources are configurable by gamemodes, you'll be able to specify if you want mana (or other types of ammo) to passively regenerate, as well as maximum and starting values for those resources

Leon

planning to add various tomes and staffs and wands that will allow the player to cast different types of spells, while using mana as their ammo resource

Changelog CL12164 (EA2 Preview Patch)
Worlds

You can now save the server world to your client if you have any building permissions.
You can now upload worlds to servers with extended permissions. The server will be in read-only mode with autosave disabled.
Prefabs
Pasting prefabs once again attaches wires to existing bricks on overlapping them.
When converting legacy prefabs, large builds with more bricks than allowed under the default prefab size limit are now converted to worlds instead of prefabs.
The default prefab brick limit is now 5000.
The default prefab entity limit is now 10.
Reduced the timeouts.
UI
Added the ability to search for worlds and prefabs. Search also includes files in subfolders of the current folder.
Added the ability to delete worlds and prefabs.
Added a dialog when failing to create a folder.
When converting legacy prefabs multiple times, the UI now tells you how many were skipped due to already being converted.
Removed the defunct controller column from the key binding menu. This never functioned correctly once we began implementing chorded bindings for tools. The intended way to configure controller mappings is to use Steam Input settings.
Removed the defunct help menu.
Various improvements to prefab browser.
Removed unnecessary "Release-" text from the version display in the top right.
Selector
The selector now still shows the current selection mode even if binding hints are disabled.
It is no longer possible to select the global brick grid in its entirety in connection mode, as this was almost always accidental and has no practical use cases.
Added entity and brick count limits to the selector.
Bots
Added name setting on the bot spawn, shows in kill feed.
Added damage multiplier setting on the bot spawn.
Added health multiplier setting on the bot spawn.
Added run speed multiplier setting on the bot spawn.
Added a global bot limit to server settings.

Sounds
Tool audio has been reclassified under Item audio.
Updated sounds for Claw melee weapon.
Updated sounds for Gauze.
Engine
Updated PhysX to the newest patch release of version 5.6.1.
Refactored how the game accesses worlds and prefabs. File handles are now automatically closed and databases unloaded after a few seconds of inactivity, allowing external access to the files.
The Test executable is now included with the dedicated server deployment.
Localization
Updated Spanish localization with reviewed strings.

Leon

recorded a quick video of updates made to the collision toggle by the other devs, it's now fancy

Leon

there are now 4 player collision channels. this can be used to do things like: - areas only one team can enter (spawn rooms) - restricting players to a central area of a map, while letting bots enter freely and attack them - making teams block certain other teams but allow certain other teams to walk through them

Leon

Speaking of, here's some more updated photos of "The Wellhead" Zombie map!!! I have more details that I want to add but it's getting close~!

Changelog CL12220 (EA2 Preview Patch)
