The last update had some unfortunate crashes for some folks - here's the known fixes to those issues - and another BOATLOAD of additional improvements (see below). We're also making things more robust with our build system, with nightly builds going to the open beta branch on Steam - so if you're having trouble with the default branch, try switching over to beta. We might have fixed it since!
Most notable updates this time around:
- Automatically expanding Asteroid Belt with workshop scenes
- Hopefully fixed new crash bug
- New editor tutorial scene to explain triggers
- New wearables, reactors and new armored skeleton blueprints
