Crouching
Crouching is now a thing! You can crouch by holding down CTRL (by default).
Crouching is seamless -- works with every item.
Item Gate
A new buildable called the "Item Gate" has been added. It emits an audible sound and lights up when a player walks through the gate.
This buildable is fully lockpickable and can store whatever you put in it's singular slot.
How do you specify which item the Item Gate should check for? Simple, just open up the gate and insert the item you'd like to check for. If no item is inserted, no checks will be made.
Lucky Spin
The games first gambling buildable, called "Lucky Spin".
How does it work? Simple enough, look at the color you want to bet on and press E!
The spin starts in a few seconds after the first bet is made. You can audibly hear when a spin is about start, and you'll know if anyone has won or lost in the end.
So how do I win it big with the Lucky Spin? Simple, you don't play! The person who earns the most is the owner of the establishment. You see Lucky Spin always takes a cut and stores it. Careful, lockpicks work on this buildable.
Sandbag Cover
Introducing Sandbag Covers, a new droppable item. Ever in a pinch and need some quick cover to regain your breath? Just drop down this bag of sand.
Provides quick and easy cover. Disappears in a couple minutes after placement and is single use. Hold E on it to destroy it.
