| Tool 0.1 | 2021-09-30 | Hello friends! We are back after working on this update for 3 weeks instead of 2. It's a little experiment of ours, which allows us to experiment a bit more between updates. Tell us how we did! This updates major focus is the Toolbox! We made it a lot more user friendly and changed the design so it'll become much easier to read. The best part? Drag & Drop integration. That is a huge deal believe us or not. Now if you mess up the sequencing of an AI you can easily rearange it in seconds! Also Fin is now part of the Toolbox helping out players by explaining all the parts of the Toolbox one by one. We hope this'll make the Toolbox a lot more fun |
