We're on track to release R16 some time next week. In addition to a bunch of new blocks, we'll have a lot of improvements to the new movement system based on your feedback.
But that's not important right now. You need to be worried about all the cool new simulation mechanics we're adding. They will fundamentally affect the way the world works. In existing worlds, this may cause dramatic effects.
If any of the following examples apply to your world, take preventative action soon:
- If you've built an ice or snow fortress on the plains, it may all melt.
- If you've managed to build a fortress around or near a lava pool, it may catch on fire.
- If you've managed to make a pretty lava waterfall in a cooler climate, it may harden into hardened lava.
- If you've placed a lot of corrupted blocks on the surface, it may infect and corrupt an entire forest.
With that out of the way, grab a peek at this ice launcher, made possible by one of R16's new toys:
