Changelog:
[Added] Undo/Redo to BotLab.
[Added] Check when initially loading bots that updates them to the latest Robot_Save_File version.
[Added] Save button to BotLab.
[Added] FileWatcher to Bot Select screens. Now these will automatically update if you move/add/remove botfiles or folders in your file browser while the game is open without needing to exit and re-enter the bot select screen.

[Change] Optimised bot select menu generation time around 350-450x.
⚠️ - The first time you load in to a folder this might take a little longer due to needing to update the botfiles within to the latest version, after that first load though you should see the optimisation kick in.
[Change] Added a couple new fields to Robot_Save_File.
[Change] Spinners now only slow down by the damage they apply, so a giant hit to cardboard will not take 80kj out of the spinner, instead it will obliterate the cardboard and stay spinning at near max speed.
This improves the ablative effect of weaker materials like plastics, reducing the throw effect. It will also increase damage output, as spinners will keep much more speed.
⚠️ - This change might require a slight rebalance of damage output!
[Change] Increased slow down imparted by arena collisions.
[Change] Upped zero speed spinner bite to prevent spinners from laying still on some objects.
[Change] Updated Robot_Save_File to version 1.1a.
[Change] New, consistent icons in BotLab top bar.
[Change] Hidden AI section in BotLab Part Selection Bar.
[Change] Removed "Show Smartzones Toggle" in BotLab Options Panel in Overview Screen.
[Change] Arena Previews text label now use Hemi font and scale so that name fits on one line.
[Change] Refactored bot select menu generation.
[Change] New, consistent icons in BotLab Bot Select.
[Change] Reconnected TV wires to TV in BotLab Bot Select.
[Change] Realigned Grid in BotLab Bot Select preview.
[Change] Bots no longer reset rotation in BotLab Bot Select preview when selected.
[Change] Search in Bot Select screens now updates live instead of on pressing Enter.
[Change] Upped spinner ineficiency so they will slow down more on a hit, this rebalances the slow down massivly reduced by "spinners now only slow from the damage they actually apply".
[Change] Slightly tweaked values to improve edge detection sensitivity.
[Change] Removed a spinner collision filter that caused spinner to be able to lay still on objects.

[Bugfix] Fix bots falling apart when you restart a fight after using slowdown.
[Bugfix] UI not hiding properly in FreeCam mode.
[Bugfix] Potential overwrite issue when saving using save hotkey (CTRL+R) in BotLab.
[Bugfix] CoM indicator being set to NaN.
[Bugfix] Spinners now have their speeds properly reduced when hitting the arena.

This is labelled as an "Unstable Build," so in order to access it via Steam, you'll have to go into the Steam Library, right-click the game, -> Properties -> Betas -> Select the unstable option in the dropdown.

Due to complications, if you've already played the AUG28 build, the new arena/bots might not load for you.
They will be attached to this post.  You'll have to extract the 2 folders and place them roughly here-
Code: [Select]
%USERPROFILE%/AppData/LocalLow/Nerd Island Studios LLC/Robot Rumble 2_0/After that, you'll just import the bots.

This was a rather fast update.  I appreciate it.
Quote
[Added] Hobbyweight weightclass at 5.4kg/12lbs
[Added] The well known sizes of pneumatic tanks as always in game, but with their correct physical volumes and weight! Smaller, lighter, more powerful! 0.5 1.0 1.5 2.0 4.0 liters!
[Added] Prototype for damage decals, currently commented out in spinnerCollisionHandler (this is not active yet)

[Change] Recalculated all weights from the pneumatic cylinders, they all got lighter! (except for the straight cylinder HAHAHA)
[Change] Corrected all stats for pneumatic cylinders, they all have correct diameters now.
[Change] Camera now has a deadzone before moving
[Change] Camera now tracks bots origin instead of Bounds (should fix the headache inducing jittering with HUGE likes)
[Change] Changed existing pneumatic storage AND buffer tanks to stay the same volume but with higher capacity and less weight! They are perfectly inline with the new tanks but allow full backwards compatibility. Old bots stay the same physically but get more capacity! 1.2 1.8 2.6 5.5 liters!
[Change] Pneumatic storage tanks had their pressure increased from 3000 to 4500 PSI, inline with comercial high pressure vessels used in combat robots.
[Bugfix] BrocSC 200A HV no longer scalable
[Bugfix] Fixed telemetry and AI aditor being able to be active at the same time
[Bugfix] Fixed spinner components not having their collision restored once broken off
[Bugfix] Belts are now properly removed when their parent motor is destroyed
[Bugfix] Broken off motors now behave properly when broken off and no longer have their axles rotate with the original bot
[Bugfix] All high speed spinner colliders and spinners scripts are now properly removed when a spinner is broken off, removing ghost spinners and a whole bunch of glitchy side effects
[Bugfix] Fixed spinner destroy spinners colliders being called from the wrong script, preventing them from being destroyed every frame
[Bugfix] Removed the "reverse" mesh from initiated bot parts, this should give a massive performance increase to loading/decimating/simplifying/rendering and combining meshes since everything was done twice per part!
[Bugfix] Fixed a UI issue where double pneumatics displayed only half their volume

[Added] Round hollow box
[Added] Tetrahedon
[Added] Box with filleted triangle hole
[Added] Seperate catagories for brushed and brushless motors! should make finding things at least a little easier for now
[Added] Seperate catagories for brushed and brushless ESC's
[Buff] Upped Motenergy to 500a Cont, which is more then its irl rating but should hopefully make it last for an entire fight with a solenoid
[Changed] New Manipulation Gizmos in BotLab (What's that? You wanted to be able to see the object you're manipulating?)
[Bugfix] Fixed NPC T64 designed voltage to be 24v
[Bugfix] CoM indicator not indicating CoM
[Bugfix] Fixed camera smoothing not working properly in match
[Bugfix] Fixed camera zoom not working properly when switching cameras in match

[Added] Centre of Mass indicator in BotLab, accesible from the sliding options menu.
[Added] Added functionality to increase the directnesOfHit with high bite distance and increase the impact angle, this makes run-up hits much more satisfying
[Added] Telemetry now highlights red when: a motor current more then the continous current is drawn, when a motors max rpm is exceeded and when it overheats!
[Added] Added a blow out effect on gas tanks when they are hit
[Added] Small boi flamethrower for beetles
[Added] Tungsten Carbide material! Tungsten carbides in a Cobalt matrix to be very exact: super heavy, super hard, super brittle!
[Added] Magnesium Alloy! Not entirly the stuff that wants to explode in water: its like lightweight Aluminium, but a little less strong.
[Added] S7 Steel! The famed, the infamous, the wanted, the controversial: Hardened till 54 Rockwell C, as holied by Ray Billings: harder then AR/Hardox, but more brittle.
[Added] TPU! the new surge in lower weightclasses: 3D printed TPU 95A, very flexible and wear resistant, minorly grippy.
[Added] Carbonfiber Nylon/NylonX! Some call it black aluminium...! Perhaps in toughness, but the strongest plastic available!
[Added] Polyurethane Rubber! For those who like casting their own tires! Extremely grippy, but slightly less reliable as classic rubber!
[Added] PLA! The absolute giant of 3D printing, a surprisingly high tensile strength... but we know what happens when it is hit...
[Added] Different looks for each material, if peoples have opinions about these please let me know!
[Added] BroccSC 200A HV! this boi going up to 50v
[Added] Nine new PrimalPower outrunners! Ranging from 370W to 3770W they provide allot of spin for Beetles, Feathers and anything in between!

[Change] Twitter icon to X (blegh)
[Change] Enabled incremental garbage collection, which spreads garbage collection accross several frames, reducing frame spikes
[Change] Nerfed the 300A brushless ESC to 500A peak, its 1000A limit made the Veggmaster obsolute
[Change] Moved Countouts Visible option to Battle Select Screen instead of Settings.
[Change] Match Time, Timer Visibility, Countouts Active, and Countout Visibility now save their state between sessions.
[Change] Complete rewrite of Camera Controller.
[Change] Trigger Zones can now have a delay before they become triggerable.
[Change] Made the Press Start to Begin "button" fit in with the rest of the battle UI.
[Change] Tweaked some logic to improve bite for overhang/exposed weapons
[Change] Sligthly increased the bite of the losing weapon in a spinner to spinner collisions to improve horizontal vs vertical hits
[Change] Blueprint material is now a physicial material that welds and has collisions. its as strong as cardboard and as heavy as aluminium
[Change] Reworked ALL motor smoke particle systems to be less obnoxious, glitchy and more subtle and make them derive from one source
[Change] Reworked ALL ESC and CO particle systems to be less obnoxious, glitchy and more subtle and make them derive from one source
[Change] Reworked ALL Battery particle systems to be less obnoxious, glitchy and more subtle and make them derive from one source
[Change] Changed all component particle systems to the new versions (this was so much more work then expected lmao)
[Change] Reworked the spark effects from spinners to let sparks fly faster and further, makes spinners look more impressive on glancing hits
[Change] Renamed several materials to be more technically specific or more generic (Hardox is now AR500, Titanium is now Titanium Gr. 5, Steel is Mild Steel etc.)
[Change] Reordered the material list: low tier/weaker/lightweight materials working up to exotic/heavy/strong materials and ending with the "specials"
[Change] Minor changes to some material stats: in the back im adding more functionality for said stats, these will come slowly in play!
[Change] Once again a new take on the spinner system using unity's animation curves to tune bite which comes with benefits: very precise control of bite response and much faster to calculate then intricate calculations
[Change] Rebalanced bite with the new curve control: more grinding and less spasm at very low engagement speeds, much better bite for mid range bite and reach weapons, less likely haymakers
[Change] Spark effect speeds are now tied to weapon tip speed
[Change] Fixed stats on many BroccSC's since I had some wrong weights (several became a little lighter!)
[Change] Increased flat spinner impulse efficiency to reduce the amount of "slacking" hits, this should improve the bite balance between bars and discs as well
[Change] Reduced the maximum impulse cap to reduce the impulse of gigantic spinner impacts to 6 times the robot mass (was 7.5)
[Change] Tweaked some impulse modifiers to make better spinners impacts with the arena and glancing impacts

[Bugfix] Dual CAT x1020 collider is now correct
[Bugfix] The build text works again!
[Bugfix] Broken Parts now properly despawn in BotLab on Bot Reset or when leaving a Test Area.
[Bugfix] Weird jump when switching cameras.
[Bugfix] Black cylinders missing from left and right gears in Main Menu.
[Bugfix] Animation Trigger Zones and Timers not working in game.
[Bugfix] Arena Previews not loading in Arena Select screen.

[Bugfix] Fixed another bug in spinner vs arena hits, now they are pretty good
[Bugfix] Fixed material names in spinner scripts so that correct spark effects are triggered

It's nice to see this game survive this long.
It wasn't a game I grew up with or anything, but it's definitely a game I highly respect.

Even though some of you leave me irritated, I'm glad to be a part of this community.

Happy Halloween
