Update V.0.02

Code Fix

• Performance issue related to the appearance of NPCs during their spawning process (no more FPS drops during this phase).

• The tailpieces are now properly secured by the strings and can no longer be removed while the strings are in place.

• The placement ghost mesh for cables is no longer obstructed by the neck, strings, or pickups. (It now appears as soon as all the other required electronic components are in place.)

• The workbench now preserves the instrument's current rotation state during game and after loading a game, eliminating the bug where the backplate assembly animation would play in the wrong direction after leaving and returning to the workbench.

Pickups

• The pickups are now correctly positioned in terms of their height relative to the strings.

3D Mesh

• New main workbench 3d model.

• New Tune-O-Matic Bridge 3D model.

Items

• Added 3 new metal knob variants.

• Added 4 wood stain items.

SHOP INTERFACE

• Added (Wood Stain) category.

UI UPDATE WIP

• I am currently creating a new UI theme for the game a darker theme featuring effects and animations. I have started implementing it, and it will soon be rolled out everywhere.

• Added a Game Mode and map selection screen that appears after clicking the "New Game" button in the menu.

I am currently coding a sandbox mode featuring no NPCs or progression, plus unlimited money and access to all items so players can freely test the game's features and latest additions. (next update)

The map selection screen will also allow players to choose their starting location. I have some great ideas for the maps and already possess plenty of assets, given my specialization in creating natural environments. (This features was planned but just not implemented yet.)
