Beacons

Have you ever needed to point something out to a friend, or ping strategic points in Paintball? Beacons are now the answer! Beacons are only visible to members of your party and/or team. Double-tap the screen on mobile, double-press the right bumper on controllers, or middle-click on PC while playing in a Party or Team to use beacons! All non-VR players have access to this feature right now, and VR access is coming soon!

For VR players using grid snapping, twisting your arm while you're drawing a ribbon or tube no longer twists them, removing those strange twists and turns of shapes that randomly showed up.
Fixed an issue some players were having when accepting game invites from their phone's notification screen.
Fixed a bug that required you to reselect a player to gift when gifting through someone's wishlist.
Fixed a bug where room instances might become unjoinable if you edited a bunch of Circuits.
Fix a bug where unowned items are unlocked when entering the portfolio of another player who wears those items.

Previously, we experimented with providing a feature to precisely Place Rooms 1.0 shapes set to Decoration or Environment on Screens. Now, we’re continuing that experiment with other objects that have physics like weapons, food, dodgeballs, etc. Thanks to all the great feedback so far we’ve been continuing to iterate on this feature, so please continue to let us know what you think!
We’ll soon be experimenting with controller controls on the watch menu. You will be able to use the L and R shoulder buttons to highlight the desired tab, then wait a second for the page to switch over. Let us know what you think!
