Lads have been updating this a lot lately.  Must've gotten a break from life or something.

Changelog:
[Added] Visual feedback to the screenshot button in BotLab.
[Added] Audio feedback to screenshots in BotLab and Battle Mode.
[Added] Support for default Bots to be included, these will be installed to the UserRobots directory.
[Added] Changed battery draw (take 2) to be correctly for current limiting ESC/motor combinations, this will result in less battery capacity being required!
[Added] Telemetry now lists the name of a motor
[Added] Motor voltage: this is the voltage send out by the ESC to the motor: = lower when current limiting, = battery voltage using a solenoid
[Added] Battery current: This is the actual current being drawn by the motor from the battery, this is dependent on the battery voltage vs motor voltage (and lower then the ESC current!)
[Added] Tutorial in BotLab selection screen to guide players when no robots present.
[Added] Text in top left of screen that shows current timescale when in slo-mo.
[Added] Robot AI in BotLab will now target crates.
[Added] FW (15kg) and MW (55KG) crates in BotLab Test Cages.

[Change] Freecam and Photomode cameras now have smallest possible near clip.
[Change] Merged Freecam and Photomode scripts.

[Change] Removed non-functional Settings button in BotLab pause popup.
[Change] Moved default Arena installation from AssetBundleManager to GlobalDirectories.

[Change] Camera rendering path now locked to Deferred.
[Change] Custom Arenas without Post Processing profiles assigned will now use the default profile.

[Change] 100KG crate changed to 110KG crate to bring in line with HW limit.
[Change] Exterior Test Cage ball is now a ball. (Liam can stop mentioning this now :kekw:)

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.
