Changes
Puzzle Editor
- Added "Light" to the list of Devices. Increasing the Light’s radius or enabling "Cast Shadows" may negatively impact performance, so be mindful of these parameters and their placement.
- Added "Checkpoint" to the list of Devices. Checkpoints allow players to save their progress at any location and can also be targeted by Portals in other levels.
- Added an Auto-Save feature, configurable in Editor Settings.
- Added an option to toggle fan vertical oscillation.
- Added horizontal fences to the list of meshes.
- Search bars and the Mesh Selection tab now remember the last entered text and selected categories.
- Improved selection of meshes located inside other meshes.
- Improved performance when resetting the level after stopping a playtest.
- Decreased the file size of custom levels on disk.
