This update adds symmetry for components and pipes, peer-to-peer multiplayer without port forwarding, and in-game documentation.
The symmetry system now works with components and pipes, not just blocks. Place a component on one side and its mirror copy appears on the other, with correct orientation. Pipes are also mirrored automatically between matching ports. Deletion and painting follow the same symmetry. Uses 2x resources when mirroring.
You can now play with your friends without forwarding any ports or configuring your router. Friends see a "Join Game" button in their Steam friends list when you're hosting. A new Friends tab in the multiplayer menu lists all friends currently hosting with a direct Join button.
Press H (rebindable) to open the built-in documentation browser. Covers all components, tools, game mechanics, XenonCode ...
Context-sensitive: press H while hovering an inventory item or aiming at an entity to open its specific page. Inventory items also have new tooltips showing their wiki description and property badges (Symmetry, Airtight). Available in 7 languages (EN, FR, DE, ES, IT, RU, ZH).
New types: vec2, vec3, vec4 vectors and mat2, mat3, mat4 matrices (plus non-square variants like mat2x3). Built-in functions: dot, cross, normalize, length, distance, angle, lerp for vectors; inverse, transpose, determinant, identity for matrices. Supports swizzling (e.g. myVec.xz, myVec.zyx).
XenonCode scripts and custom HUDs can now be published to and installed from the Steam Workshop.
