Hello everyone!
I'm happy to announce that version 0.14.1 is available now! This update brings a few more quality of life improvements to the game, including a complete overhaul to the central room in the factory levels. Check it out, I'm sure the changes will grab your attention!
In other news, a Beans Plushie campaign from Makeship was launched a few weeks ago! This plushie was designed with input from Beans' creator, Padre Snowmizzle, and looks great. The campaign is currently scheduled to end on March 28, so be sure to check it out here before then if you want one.
Now onto the changelog!
Changelog
Changes
Replaced the conveyor belt room in the factory with a new crane room.
Several cranes randomly move around in this room. Whenever one moves over an entity, it will pick up the entity and then drop it onto one of the available output conveyor belts.
The conveyor belt flaps are now placed at the ends of the output conveyor belt instead of at the entrances of the central room in the factory.
The buttons that toggle conveyor belt directions are now found inside the crane room next to the conveyor belt output entrances instead of at the ends of the output conveyor belts.
The cafeteria now has a raised ceiling.
The lightbulb testing room now has unique on and off light sprites.
Chalkes' transparency is now rendered via dithering instead of the sprite renderer's color alpha.
Updated the Principal of the Thing's character poster to reflect his updated sprite.
Updated a Kickstarter backer's name in the credits.
Technical
Lights can now be assigned separate on and off sprites.
Fixed an oversight with singletons being destroyed. A singleton being destroyed would maintain an instance of the current instance class in memory, even if the game object ceased to exist. Now, if a singleton's game object is destroyed, the singleton instance variable will be set to null.
Windows now have controllable properties for being breakable and for allowing audio to pass through them.
Bug Fixes
Fixed a bug where, if the sticker opening animation was stopped before finishing, it would resume where it left off the next time it played, displaying stickers collected from a previous pack instead of the newly opened pack.
Fixed an issue where conveyor belts didn't mark the floor of the cell they were generated on as covered. This allowed objects such as lockers to generate on top of them.
Corrected an issue with The Test where it would be sent to the EntityBuffer layer when disabled instead of the disabled layer.
Fixed an issue where lights could generate above exit signs.
