Let's start with the biggest trouble maker - [b]item dropping![/b] It's was so easy to drop an item and get mad [ possible rage quit ] Well - made an outstanding move! I reworked from scratch our controllable robot logic including pick/hold/drop item code. It took me a while, but I'm so happy about the outcome result. [i][ hopefully, you will appreciate it too ][/i] ːsteamhappyː [img]https://steamcdn-a.akamaihd.net/steamcommunity/public/images/clans/32196329/5c64feb8a4eba6e07b6992adad12cd2b7a047e0e.gif[/img] Don't think that it stopped all there! Now as the new item pick/hold mechanic is implemented, need to go over all possible items and update their colliders. [i][ not a hard task, but takes some time ][/i] To give more joy by smashing/throwing items - I started to add items that can break apart when defined force is applied :) [i][ more on that next time ][/i] The next cool feature: [b]Throw trajectory![/b] Such a simple line, but makes life much easier for many players. [ if you think you can live up to the challenge to not use it, you have the power to disable it in settings! ] [img]https://steamcdn-a.akamaihd.net/steamcommunity/public/images/clans/32196329/8d79be7fa978b4bdcc767baa43ead26dd3925ce4.gif[/img] And of course, Level 4 visuals updates: [url=https://steamcdn-a.akamaihd.net/steamcommunity/public/images/clans/32196329/c9b635328294ce1f241739f3d4957eff79311058.png][img]https://steamcdn-a.akamaihd.net/steamcommunity/public/images/clans/32196329/bcacfee8c2f7f1aee658eb5287557f4b0455aa9b.png[/img][/url] [i]By size, I think this level is the hugest of all levels in chapter one![/i] [b]P.S.[/b] [i]started to work on the new trailer and here is a sneak peek of first [b]~4 seconds[/b]:[/i] https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZpTM297ERb4 [i][b]Share the news & till next time![/b][/i]
