• PhysX version upgrade gives better accuracy and performance in a variety of cases.
  
• Video player is now using hardware decoding on the gpu making video textures more performant.
  
• Updated tablet chromium version which now supports mp3.
  
• Updated Dissonance voice chat plugin.
  
• Voice chat is now working on Linux again.
  
• Updated Lua Moonsharp to 2.0.

Hey everyone, hope you're all doing great this summer!

Summary:

General

• The game will now show a ghost object where your object will drop when snapping to grid or snap points.
  
• You may still drag components out of the component window, but if you click one instead you will enter Spawn mode. Click the left mouse to place a copy of that object. Hit right mouse or escape to end.
  
• New context menu for objects: Clone. Puts you in Spawn mode for that object.
  
• When holding an object, hitting escape will return it to where you picked it up.
  
• Snap points are now editable for promoted players.
  
• New feature where when you press a number key while holding a bunch of objects it will arrange it in a grid based on the number of rows specified with the number key.
  
• Settings added for various new features present in the patch.
  
• Misc setting added to make containers (decks, bags, etc.) respond to the first number typed on them.
  

Server

• Added new server types public, friends, and invite.
  
• Public servers are just how you are used to anyone can join, but you can have an optional password.
  
• Friends server means only friends can join, no password required.
  
• Invite server means only people you choose to invite can join the game, no password required.
  
• Server browser loading should be faster because there will be less public servers that need to fetched with the new friends and invite servers.
  
• Server browser will now always get your friends servers instantly first.
  
• Server browser is now available while you are in a game, in the escape menu.

• Added 2D/3D modes. In 2D all measurements are flattened to the horizontal plane. In 3D height is included.
  
• Added ruler mode: Auto or Free. In Auto mode the ruler will take advantage of objects you hover over, snapping to them where appropriate. You can hold down ctrl to override this behaviour.
  
• Objects now have a Measure Movement toggle, which if enabled will mean whenever that object is picked up (and you are in Auto mode) a measurement will be started.
  
• When in Auto mode, if you start measuring while holding an object (by holding tab), it will measure from the pickup location.
  
• You may hold down shift while measuring to view the orthogonal axes (2D mode) or the flat distance + height (3D mode). Holding ctrl at the same time will show the other.
  
• Fixed being stuck in Line Tool after using it while holding an object.
  

Line Tool: Options

Line Tool: Object Snapping

Line Tool: Orthogonal Components

Line Tool: Flat Distance + Height

• Fixed sub components of cards/dominoes/pachisi (drawings, decals, attached objects, etc.) not hiding in hands.
  

Spectator View

• Picture-in-Picture window now allows you to interact with the game through it.
  
• For example, you could set it to look at a dice, and whenever you want you can hover over the dice and hit R to roll.
  

Physics

• Greatly improved the reliability of physics collisions especially for thin objects.
  
• Consolidated physics settings under a new menu called Physics.
  
• Gravity slider goes twice as high now for stronger gravity.
  
• Cards collider thickness is now the actual size instead of being much thicker.

• Made it so you have to be more precise when placing objects into a bag / infinite bag to reduce accidents especially on large objects.
  
• Revamped teleporting when objects fall off the table to now place it floating at the edge of the table where it flew off to reduce disruption.
  

Tags

• Revamped the workshop tags with a bunch more and now available in the new Options -> Info menu.
  
• These tags are now embedded in the save file and will be in the future searchable and filterable in-game just like the Workshop.
