fixedSpecular environment reflectionsThe lighting engine has been altered dramatically. Specular reflections now have the correct glossiness. This also introduced a few artefacts, none of which are a mystery and will be fixed soon. Sometimes, upon entering the area, it may have incorrect light—I have disabled light cleanup for some scenarios, but in some, it is necessary.
addedFPV simulatorIt now has an FPV mode. As the name suggests - it is a small level where you can fly around. In the future, FPV will be a part of Turret Defence mode. To have the player something to do while the monsters are walking.
removedCleanupFew third-party assets have been removed from the build - hence the smaller build size. A more noticeable one is the water system. It was causing a bit too many issues. I'll return to making a good water solution or integrating the existing one.
