Custom Content
Character Functionality
· New Character and Animation Stat: grabbableAreaType
- This stat grants the creator finer control over the way their characters are allowed to be grabbed. More information can be found by following the API update link below.
Stage Functionality
· Ledge Layering
- For characters that support _behind animations on ledges, you can now choose whether a character’s entire sprite is displayed in front of or behind the stage’s main ground layer while on the ledge. This is controlled via a dropdown menu in the properties panel while selecting the floor structure. (Requires Metadata Definitions Plugin v0.5.0)
· Ambient light
- You can now change a stage's ambientColor stat mid-match.
New GameObjectStats fields:
· outgoingCollisionBoxDetection
- Enables an optimization for game objects that are permanently unable to interact with other object's collision boxes, such as objects that characters can deal damage to but that cannot damage characters themselves.
· terminalVelocityRising
- Specifies a maximum upward velocity a game object can travel. The same restrictions apply here as to normal terminalVelocity: it only applies during normal physics, not knockback.
EntityEvent.STATE_CHANGE
· "self" value is now available to EntityEvent.STATE_CHANGE events listeners.
