Additions

  • Added chat system.

  • Added commands.

  • Added shovel.

  • Added new 'sand' item.

  • Added new impact effects when mining/chopping ores/trees.

  • Added keybind to open chat.

  • Added three building keybinds that were previously unchangable.

Improvements

  • Improved the appearance of the day-night cycle system

  • Improved the appearance of stars and clouds.

  • Added minor detail to axe/pickaxe textures.

  • The sand drill (was glass refinery) is now animated.

  • Dropped tools now have unique models rather than the generic box.

  • Animated all equippables in third person.

Changes

  • The glass refinery has now been converted to the sand drill. Rather than instantly producing glass, it produces sand. 2x sand can be refined into glass in a furnace or campfire.

  • Rearranged the options menu.

Bug fixes

  • Fixed crafting accidentally occurring when the crafting menu is closed.

  • Fixed an issue where the sun and moon could become invisible.

Commands With the introduction of the chat system, I've also added commands. These commands can be used in singleplayer and multiplayer (but only by the host). Commands are prefaced by the character '/' (forward slash). Here is the current list of commands:

  • settime Sets the current in-game time. Uses 24-hour format. Example: /settime 1200

  • killbots Kills all bots. Example: /killbots

  • replenishresources Replenishes all natural resources. Example: /replenishresources

  • teleport Teleports you to the given location. Uses X Y Z format. Example: /teleport 0 100 200

  • kick Kicks the specified player from the game. Example: /kick Tyler

  • startmusic Starts playing music if it is not already playing. Example: /startmusic

  • stopsmusic Stops any music if it is playing. Example: /stopsmusic

Thanks for reading!
