v2.0.0-beta changelog

ADDITIONS:

  • Added multiplayer Skirmish.
    • You can either play peer-to-peer, or on rudderbucky server - a set of hosted servers by yours truly.
    • You can select your own blueprints to use against other players. For balancing purposes rudderbucky server mandates certain rules described in the Ship Builder.
    • Standard BattleZone rules apply.
    • Flying out of sector for 3 seconds will result in destruction.
    • Upon the round ending, you will have the option to vote on the next sector in the world to play in.
    • To make a multiplayer map all you need to do is place BattleZones in different dimensions. The first one played on is in dimension 0.
    • Also make sure your BattleZones have carriers for the first two factions.
    • The scoreboard reflects how players have dealt with objectives since when they joined. It's meant to display some kind of progression but take it with a grain of salt.
    • In multiplayer only, your core tier will affect how quickly you respawn. Tier 2 respawns 2 seconds slower.
  • There is now a singular folder to store ship presets between instances of the game.
    • Yard Presets have been replaced by accessing this folder. Migrating your save will move your presets over so you can still use them.
    • These presets will indicate whether you have the specified parts in singleplayer, and whether they are rdb server valid if you are trying to join hosted servers.
  • Added native macOS support
  • Added a new ability - Speeder Missile
  • Added sprites for the towers
  • Absorb and Damage Boost now have cosmetics
  • Added an "is shiny" checkbox to the add reward node
  • Added new World Creator music
  • You can now command selected drones to locations via left-clicking the minimap.
  • You can now clear all your targets by shift-left-clicking.
  • You can now select all your owned units by pressing ctrl+tab.
  • Parts can now be mass-selected by drag-clicking.
  • Added the option to change UI scaling in the settings menu.
