Adam Snellgrove 1451 Posted December 14, 2020 Highlights New experimental Exploration In 1.5 we begin a transition to a new, different Exploration. Instead of many Exploration games, we give you a large Exploration world to travel. Please note that we think of this new Exploration as "Early access" as it will be finalized in 1.6. If you feel like waiting for a polished, finished product, you can keep playing the original (legacy) Exploration. Custom bitmap import Creators can now import their own images to be used as game UI (panels, buttons, icons...) or even in custom particles. Please note that all custom bitmaps are checked before the game is made visible on Workshop. Improved profile page We've improved the profile page (accessible by clicking character portrait in the Main menu). See your favorite games, your friends' Avatars or their friends. Optimizations We've added further optimizations - especially owners of lower spec mobile devices should experience noticeable improvement. Scripting modules You wanted an easier way to re-use your code in various game scenes or share with others ... and we answered. Dynamic lights visible on mobile devices We keep tirelessly working so that your mobile gaming experience is as close to PC as possible. Light Game Logic object Maybe your scene would look better with one or two dynamic lights to set the mood? Weather effects visible on lower spec mobile devices Now you can experience Ylands' weather even with less powerful mobile devices! Mobile controls Editor preview Are you making a game to be played with mobile devices? Now you can check what the control will look like when testing the game on PC. Bow-shooting and grenade-throwing enhancements We rewrote a lot of code so that these are now better controlled and much more fun. Be sure to give them a try! Visual scripting fixes and improvements Another batch of fixes and improvements that will make it easier for you to create great games. Terrain roughen tool Making a natural-looking terrain is so much easier with this new tool. Native American assets With these assets, we give you yet another great setting/era where you can set your game. Controlling the non-player object Two new instructions have been added: Get Horizontal Input / Get Vertical Input, which will return player X / Y controller input. They can be used in new Event Listener event - On Fixed Update to "animate" any object as if controlling the player. Please note that this feature currently works for SP games only.
