Hi Mechanics!
Last few week we’ve been hard at work on the Creative mode update that we mentioned in our latest devblog. It contains a lot of new things that we need help testing out to make sure it runs well.
Some of these things are updated terrain worlds that now have trees and rocks from survival.
We also added water to the terrain and slightly expanded it in size.
Something we are really excited to see you try out are the new enemy capsules.
These allow you to release bots in to the creative world. You can also paint the bots in other colors to make them turn on each other. This is a fun feature that let’s you set up bot battles.
We also made it possible for mechanics to customize their main menu buy clicking on the blue pen icon at the bottom. Keep in mind that bearings can’t be used in the main menu world.
On top of all this we also made a ton of fixes and improvements that we are sure a lot of mechanics will be happy with! One of them is a physics quality slider that can be accessed in-game from the ESC – Option menu. Here you can set how good you want the physics to be. It’s a good slider to have to adjust performance, but also to make some really wacky creations. Give these a try!
Please keep in mind that some things are still missing in the test that will be added in the coming days.
For example Woc and glowbug Capsules and a few more fixes we are still currently in the works.
