addedNew World File System and DisclaimerIn order to optimize the menu system, and properly support workshop integration I had to make changes to the world save file structure. The good news is that you can still play your old worlds, they will get converted to the new format when the game opens. So before updating be sure to backup your worlds . In the event of a crash or power outage while the conversion is processing you could end up with a corrupted world. World files are located in LocalAppData/WildOmission/SaveGames. I am not responsible for any data loss, I warned you.
addedWorkshop IntegrationI have integrated the steam workshop into Wild Omission. You can now browse and download other players worlds, and upload you own. I'm very excited to see what the community has created!
changedWorld Selection UpdatesWorlds now have a preview image that is displayed in the selection menu. In addition as I mentioned previously I made improvements to the world file structure, so the world selection menu shouldn't take as long to open if you have a lot of worlds.
