New: Player Profile Backgrounds
New ways to customize yourself have been added - profile backgrounds!
These profile backgrounds decorate your scoreboard profile throughout the game. This Halloween, we have exclusive Halloween only profile backgrounds. We plan to add more non-Halloween profile backgrounds in the future!
To equip your profile backgrounds, go to Appearance > Profile > Scoreboard > Background.
Hot Bar Improvements
Hot bar had some improvements with a new feature that allows you to toggle weapons and potions. You can toggle holster your weapon by pressing the corresponding key on the hot bar for your equipped weapons, and you can toggle size potion effects on your potions as well!
Pluck-A-Pal Rework
Pluck-a-Pal was completely redone. The game is now 100% physics driven and the plushies no longer are inside capsules, which brings a more authentic crane game experience. We also fixed many, many bugs with it!
Billiards Fixes
Billiards now has improved physics for pocketing, and lots of fixes!
Condo: Media Volumes
A new Condo builder feature - one that has been requested many times is now available! Media Volume is a new IO Volume that builders can use to automatically toggle on Mediaplayers when players are within the volume. You can set these volumes up by connecting a Mediaplayer to the Media Volume with the Tower Glove.
Condo: Mature Only Filter
In an effort to provide a safer environment for our players, we have added a Mature Only condo filter feature.
By default, condos that have certain words/tags in their title will be tagged as mature. They will be hidden by default.
When enabled, they will have a Mature Tag assigned.
When you go to host your condo, there's a new tag button to enable the Mature Content tag, which appends "18+" to the condo title.
Please be advised, if you host your Condo with mature content without applying the tag, you may be subject to moderation actions. Please use the mature content tags appropriately. Some keywords that will mark your condo as Mature Only are: 18+, NSFW, 21+, Mature. We also have a built-in list of keywords that will automatically mark your Condo, these keywords will be expanded in further updates.
Condo: Remove From Group
We’ve added the ability to more easily remove objects from groups! This allows you to remove single items from your group without having to break the entire group apart.
