Floating Sandbox 1.17.1 Is Out!


Dear shipmates (by now almost shipbuilders),

We already have an update for you!

Like it often happens with major code releases, the 1.17.0 update had a couple of issues that could cause the game to crash. We've quickly fixed them (thanks Chris!) , and in the process we've also slipped-in a couple of improvements!

Here's the changelist for this mini-update:

  • ShipBuilder:

    • Added "Sampler" tool, to inspect and select materials from existing particles

    • Added "SHIFT lock" to "Pencil" and "Eraser" tools

    • Fixed crash when using CTRL^Z keyboard shortcut (Undo) when undo is not possible

  • Added a small "grace period" before allowing water-sensing switches to flip again

  • Fixed sporadic crash when activating the WindMaker tool underwater

We strongly recommend upgrading to this new 1.17.1 release, even if you've upgraded to 1.17.0 already, as it removes these two annoying crashes.

Talk to you soon, hopefully this time with a status update about new features!

In the quest for accessibility, I'm adding Resurrection Shrines for players on the 'novice' end of the platforming spectrum.

In order to unlock the power of a Shrine, you must collect 3 'Souls' from your dead corpses! (the floating blue orbs)
