1.6.7 UPDATE

New features

  • added a player 'on hit' particles system
  • H shows or hides all trigger connections
  • P pauses the moving enemy in the Weapon editor
  • users can now select object sub-entities even with selection constraints

Bug fixes

  • very big scores were lost when reading the high score file
  • scores < 10 were not displayed
  • attached enemies never really paused
  • don't hit the force field if the weapon does zero damage
  • issues with shadows and 3D models using alpha
  • modifying a particle texture asset didn't update the alpha/additive rendering mode
  • stop rendering if the window is minimized
  • item particle effect could be rendered behind objects from the same layer
  • 3d materials migration from old projects could render objects black
  • selecting some very small sprites could be difficult
  • avoid cropping texts in the in-game menu
