1.34 Update
Changes
Add new "Autocomplete" option On ↲ which enables the return key ↲ to always trigger completion, instead of only in certain contexts. The default remains On ↹ using tab to complete.
Accept either return key or tab key for completion when triggered manually with ctrl space. This also works this way after the completion menu has been interacted with.
Improve scroll bar mouse interaction. Scroll bars are easier/wider to grab, they visibly expand to 2x width & are highlighted when hovering over them.
Add missing CJK support in code branch menu.
Update code dependencies and compile with rust 1.55.
1.33 Update
Changes
Full translation for 简体中文 (zh-CN).
Support CJK text for intro, company messages, documentation, credits & partial support in code comments.
Optimise CPU random generation of colony encoded text characters.
Update code dependencies and compile with rust 1.54.
Known issues
CJK text support in the code editor is limited to `#` comment sections only and is not fully supported for editing.
Massive thanks to 名字太长不好 for contributing this translation to the open source project at github.com/big-ab-games/robo-instructus-translation. It's fantastic to see another full translation contributed so soon after the Spanish one in 1.32.
