November 4th, 2024, Change List
------------------ General Update
Meta Haptics Studio Integration All haptics are now played through the new Meta Haptics Studio Integration for a better experience and performance. See https://developers.meta.com/horizon/resources/haptics-studio/ for more information
General Bug Fixes
Fixed an issue where users could not “Play Again” with their squadmates
Fixed an issue where collecting Silver Seeker would not show the “Daily Collections Remaining: X/20” pop-up.
Fixed an issue where the friends list would not load if you have around 500+ friends. We now load the friends list without icons to stop it from not loading at all. Thank you for patience while we work on a long term fix.
Sandbox Updates
Respawn timer option for collectibles. This is a slider on the collectible item to make it auto respawn. Note that loot does not respawn when standing too close to it.
New actions MoveTargetOut and MoveTargetBack. These use the target's TriggerID to either move a target to its max position, or min position, where it will stop. This can be used to make a door/elevator open/close/move via an action. If you have mirror movement enabled, the target will stop at the center position with one call, and move to the min/max with a second. On match start, you probably want to call MoveTargetBack to set its desired position to 0 and stop it at the placed position.
New option for Flag Spawner to show delivery waypoint. This will make the star waypoint show when you can deliver, and the star icon on the map. This is extra useful if you do not require the flag to be present to score.
New action RemoveItem. This removes every item in the item list from a player's inventory. Action value is quantity to remove.
New action triggers Flag Grabbed and Flag Dropped. These work with the flag spawner object to let you add actions for your flag carrier.
Added field ID to jump pads and boost rings so they can be toggled on/off with toggle/enable/disable field actions.
Allowed player drop loot option to work when you have bleed out time enabled.
