Aggregated from Steam, cross-tracked with Battle.net coverage on GamePatchNote.
Hey Builders!
This update brings new features related to user experience and user interface. Below are some of these features implemented, but there are more features that, as they are small details, are not worth highlighting, but check the changelog to find out more.
Categories
Highly requested feature to group your workspaces
The entire sidebar has been redesigned to support this new feature.
Search Bar for Workspace
Easier to stalk an item
Search for anything contained in any item in the current workspace.
A way to locate a selected item instantly has also been implemented.
Better Tooltip
For Inputs and Outputs
When hovering over any input or output of a block, a clearer and more user-friendly tooltip will be displayed to explain the port's usage.
Dynamic Block
Opening up new possibilities for Block Developers
Block Developers can now program the blocks to perform dynamic actions with limitless and unimaginable possibilities. Be aware that such capabilities may impact performance if used excessively.
For Block Developers: check out dynamic_block_test.js to find out how to make a dynamic block.
Worth Mentioning
- Built-In Bot Terminal, so the users don't need to install Node.js on their computers. This feature can be reversed in the app settings to use an external terminal.
- Keybinds, it's a new settings page to allow you to set up custom keyboard shortcuts for various actions.
- Customizable Project Info, it's now possible to rename projects and change their icons by right-clicking on them.
- Lock/Unlock Items & Enable/Disable Blocks, you can block Blocks from working or from changing their properties (moving, resizing, etc...).
- Searchable Block Dropdowns, when opening a dropdown menu from a block, the user can type to search for the menu option now.
