MMORPG Tycoon 2

• Sinister assets! Up first, in this update you'll find a new set of "sinister" functional buildings, a new dungeon entrance, a new wall style, and several new scenery items to use to decorate all your most ominous regions.
  
• Lighting on the world map! We've brought over tech from our dungeon rendering, and scenery items which look like they should be casting light into the world (lanterns, campfires, etc) now actually do so on the main world map, the same way they do inside dungeons! This means you can now make super thematic 'nighttime' regions and illuminate them using lanterns and other set dressing, instead of always requiring sunlight everywhere!
  
• General scenery cleanup! In this build we've also updated more than 80 of our old scenery items, fixing many minor issues (tables which were missing triangles when viewed from underneath, a cleaver which accidentally was embedded into a table by its handle instead of by its blade, etc). In general, we've worked quite hard to make sure these changes are subtle enough that you probably won't notice them and they shouldn't break any builds which had been using the old scenery items.
  

• Fixed players on flight paths or on vehicles falling down to the ground after a save+load cycle. Additionally, players waiting for a vehicle at a dock at the time of a save will now continue waiting for the vehicle after the load occurs, instead of choosing to go do something else instead.
  
• Fixed a very rare crash bug which could occur if you started to change the destination of a quest but aborted out of doing so by clicking on a scenery placement tool that you had never used before.
  
• Fixed a bug which caused map generation to not be entirely repeatable when regenerated from the same seed. (this should make it possible for us to debug some extremely rare map generation bugs in future!)
  
• Fixed a bug which could result in a (non-functional) selection-box being drawn in the desktop interface.
  
• Mac and Linux builds no longer treat receiving a "SIGTERM" signal as if it was a crash (because it isn't one! It was just a polite way for one program or the OS itself to request another program close itself)
  

• Fixed a floating point imprecision issue which could very rarely cause a piece of scenery to treated as both *inside* and also *outside* of a brush stroke at the same time, which resulted in that single scenery item being placed and then removed again within a single editing action, which *really* confused the game's undo system!
  
• Fixed a very rare placement issue with flight paths, teleporters, and vehicle depots, which could occur if you were playing in a window and clicked and dragged the mouse cursor out of the game window in the middle of placing the *second* flight point, teleporter, or vehicle depot on a travel path.
  
• Fixed cursor briefly appearing to teleport across the screen when tapping the 'z' key during an object placement.
  

• Scenery brushes! Each scenery placement tool can now be put into a "brush" mode, where you can scatter scenery items across an area with just the sweep of the mouse. There are several different patterns available, with customisable densities, brush sizes, scale and angle randomisations, and more! Individual placements are of course still available, and scenery items placed using a brush can be further adjusted the same as any other scenery items!
  

• All dropdown menus all now have a downward-pointing triangle on their right side, to indicate that they can be clicked upon
  
• Disabled 'undo' and 'redo' functionality during the initial game tutorial to prevent a possible soft-lock.
  
• Changed the MegaTooltip window so it won't place itself partially off the bottom of the screen.
  
• Added some missing description strings for the new vehicles from the last travel update.
  
• Fixed mouse movements affecting camera rotation if you were holding a keyboard "rotate camera" button (default-bound to 'q' and 'e')
  
• Moved the Wall/Path placement help messages to smaller, dark-background windows in the bottom right of the screen to match the appearance and positioning of other help text windows. (previously these had been larger blue windows in the top left)
  
• Vastly improved the handling of in-progress pathfinding queries when map edits happen, especially edits which touch multiple regions simultaneously (destroying mountain passes, multi-region flight paths, etc)
  
• Fixed issues with deleting a travel building while in a placement tool that had been trying to use that travel building as part of a new path placement.
  
• Fixed dungeon fog settings sometimes temporarily being applied to the main world map view, immediately after leaving a dungeon interior view.
  
• Fixed several issues caused by the use of keyboard hotkeys to switch between editing tools while in the middle of drag operations.
  

• If you try to place a building somewhere where players can't travel (on top of buildings, etc), the error message for that has changed from "Off map" to "Unwalkable terrain", which I feel is more understandable.
  
• Fixed the "Undo" hud element to adjust its positioning on screen if the game window is resized or the fullscreen resolution is changed.
  
• When sending a screenshot is enabled, bug reports now send us the screenshots at your window's native resolution, instead of always cropping/scaling to 1920x1080.
  

- Fixed an assertion which got thrown if a subscriber wanted to form a PVP Duel area, but the game couldn't find a legal place anywhere in the region which wasn't already covered by another PVP Duel, non-traversible terrain, or other obstructions.
- Fixed an issue which caused certain UI buttons to not work correctly. These were buttons which caused transient windows to open; primarily pop-up color pickers, icon pickers, and the "Adjust" windows in the character model editor. Now fixed!

• Three new flight point variants! That brings us up to 2 to 5!
  
• Three new vehicle variants! Bringing us from 5 to 8!
  
• Three new teleporter variants! Bringing us from 6 to 9!
  

• Minor model fixes to a couple existing teleporter models (for example, one of them accidentally had visible interaction pads; that sort of thing)
  
• Lots of improvements to make terrain editing more responsive.
  
• Fixed an issue with the 'Icy' terrain type, which was causing its terrain shape to be randomised each time it was loaded. This could result in carefully arranged scenery objects in these areas being jostled vertically after each load, and monsters being briefly floating or sunken under the ground (they'd fix themselves within a minute or so, though). These things shouldn't happen any more after this build!
  

• Fixed "icy" terrain types to generate reliable ground shapes each time; previously they generated a different shape each time you loaded a save, which could cause complex scenery placements to become vertically unaligned. That should no longer happen after this build!
  
• Fixed an issue where the monster zone placement tool could become confused about its state if you started using it in an illegal location (such as inside an unowned region). It's now much better-behaved in those situations!
  

• Fixed an issue with buildings not following the terrain as they should have.
  
• Fixed an issue with destroying dungeons.
  

• If you completely destroyed a zone using a painting tool (instead of using a 'destroy' tool), then "undo" would fail to bring that zone back.
  
• If you resized an existing monster zone using a painting tool, any monsters added or removed would not be correctly updated during an undo/redo.
  
• If you aborted out of painting a zone by pressing 'escape' while the mouse button was still down, or if you dragged the painting tool outside of the game window and released the mouse button out over the desktop or another program, then the tool could get confused. In bad situations, this could eventually lead to a crash.
  
• If you destroyed a dungeon, this could eventually (much later) lead to a crash.
  

What's new:

• Undo!

  Editing actions in the game are now nearly all undoable. Placing objects, destroying them, moving them around, painting terrain, splitting roads, etc; nearly every placement-related action can now be undone and then redone, using the "Undo" and "Redo" buttons (or control-Z and control-Y, respectively).
  
  There's now a small window in the top right corner of the screen which shows the next items in the undo and redo stack, so you can always be sure what will happen when you hit 'undo'.
