  • Top Contributors: You can now check who are the top contributors to each planet and the whole galaxy.

  • News reportAdded a new section to show the latest news from the front.

New and improved stuff

  • Head lights: Map makers can now enable headlights in some maps. Beware that the lights have a performance cost, so please only use it in simple maps.

  • Friends listsWe added a "social" tab where you can see all the friends you added in game. To add a friend you can do it from the scoreboard tab in the multitool menu, or from the last played list.
  • Added a new "friends only" filter to the join games list.

  • Added a "Last played" list in the Social tab.

  • Avatars now launch auto calibration when selecting them in the mirror.

  • Teleport points are now numbered in the minimap

  • Added new text notifying the map maker that they need to win the map to publish it.

  • Improved the network position smoothing of the tank and mech

  • Added a galaxy badge icon to the editor maps list so you know which of your maps are part of the galaxy

  • Added a hover bike to Snow Hill and Tank to Snow Rescue

  • Added additional map info in the mission tab: the map creator, current difficulty and if the map is part of the galaxy.

Bug Lair assets Pack

  • Added 63 new assets to create creepy bug lairs and hideouts!

Lava Biome

  • The new biome comes with new effects like fire, 4 new skyboxes and new cliffs and lava pools to decorate your maps.

Map Editor

  • Added per unit restrictors to the enemy spawn points. You can now select which enemies can spawn from where.

  • Added a new setting for Occlusion Volumes that, instead of selecting all the assets inside the volume, will only select object groups. This gives you much more precision over what needs to hide.

  • Improved textures for the Space Biome

  • Box Selection (left trigger rotates the box): Use it to create prefabs.

  • Added new Local dimming volumes. They are very useful
