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.
