Update #35 - USPSA Stage from Area One 2017, Tutorial Assistant
Week #35. Trying to rebuild the Tutorial system but came up with a tutorial assistant instead for now. You can enable it and it'll show you which buttons to press to start the game, or unload and show clear. Hope it helps new players. Will think about a full tutorial sometime in the future. This week's stage comes from last year's Area One Championships in St. George Utah. This is stage two, Bridge the Gap. A fun stage where shooters have to stand on planks to shoot.


Changelog v0.47
* New USPSA Stage from Area One
* Simple Tutorial Assistant
* Lighting improvements in main menu
* Movement Restrictions removed from all stages
* Fixed tutorial video


Enjoy!

Update #34 - Movers Available in Stage Designer, New IPSC Stage and multiple fixes
Week #34. This week, Jason Bird comes through again with a new IPSC stage called Through The Window. It's a pretty fun and challenging stage which an unusual stage position. We've also managed to implement Movers in the stage designer. Now you can specify any number of targets attached to a mover and specify the direction the mover takes when activated. Took a while to get this done but seems to work pretty well.


Changelog v0.46
* Movers
* New IPSC Stage - Through the Window
* Fixed Rocker Reset
* Fixed movement in Extreme Euro Stage
* Adjust sound in interstitial
* Returned Trackpad movement to require press down
* Fixed mover reset after DQ

Enjoy!

Update #33 - Rocker Prop, new IPSC stage and Perf Improvements
Week #33. Here's a new prop called the Rocker. It is a paper target that can be destabilized by two plates set on a horizontal bar. Shooting a plate will destabilize the target and "rock" the paper target left or right and back. It's a pretty fun and slightly cheeky target to shoot. This week, Jason Bird brings us another Tasmanian State 2017 stage. We've also removed the irritating "flash" when you make the Top 10 scoreboard and when it saves your recording.


Changelog v0.45
* New IPSC Stage
* Rocker Prop
* Recording save doesn't flash screen anymore
* Stage Prefab fixes
* Stage Designer prefab fixes
* Bobbing targets now reset correctly

Enjoy!

Update #32 - New USPSA Long Course, Waypoint changes
Week #32. A light update this time with a new long course and changes to the Waypoint system after getting some feedback from the community. We've changed waypoints to only remember position instead of rotation. Including rotation introduces a bug during replays because the rotation is controller exlusively by the player, forcing the player to rotate will be jarring. We've found that just moving the player and letting the player look where he/she wants, is more natural and works pretty well. Give it a try and let me know what you think.


Changelog v0.44
* New USPSA Stage - Lock Stock and Too Many Barrels
* Adjusted Waypoint type to position only
* Waypoint is optional and available in the Advanced Preference
* Removed rotation capability for Waypoints
* Fixed teleport while menu is open
* Added more multi language text

Update #31 - Waypoint Locomotion, New USPSA Stage, Movement fixes
Week #31. After much cajoling by the community over the past few months, I've relented and implemented Waypoint locomotion. Now you can specify waypoints during the stage using the GRIP button, then after the buzzer, hold down GRIP for more than 1s to instantly teleport to the next waypoint. That way you can plan your stage positions before starting, and move through the stage without messing with trackpad or teleporting locomotion styles. Give it a shot and let me know how it works. I'm surprised to say that I'm pretty impressed with the playability of it.


Changelog v0.43
* Waypoint Locomotion
* New USPSA Long Course
* Allow movement in passages
* Swapped clamshell for Flap-Up Target in Gallery
* Fixed disable movement override
* Fixed connecting menu activators
* Fixed shot calling stage start problem
* Fixed stage designer loading issue


Enjoy!

Update #30 - New IPSC course, One Handed Reload, See Other player scores

Week #30. Trying to get an update before the Christmas holidays, so here's a light update that includes another new IPSC Medium course by Jason Bird, implemented a prototype way of handling one handed reloads where you can pocket the 2nd controller, and during a reload, click either the trackpad or grip buttons on the 2nd controller to reload the gun immediately, instead of waiting for a second. Hopefully this will make the reloading mechanic better for those playing with one controller. As for multiplayer, you can now see other player's scores after they finish their run.
