The Minigolf SDK tools are nearing completion. The tool icons are now setup, along with the tools themselves and their settings.

All the different variants and selectable models for the Minigolf Editor makes for around 5,243 models. These models are all under the hood, as you tell the editor what the tile should be and it'll select the correct one for you.

Also, we did a lot of work both behind the scenes and in the editor UI to make working with the Minigolf tiles much easier, such as bug fixes and improvements to the grid snapping tools.











We've added a new settings section - Accessibility, which has various settings suggested by the community.





Easily replace URLs with new URLs across all canvas items that use the same URL in one click. Very useful to replace old/broken links.

There is also a new "Find" feature that will visually show all canvas items that are using the same URL so you can find where the canvas is in your Condo.





Sound Volumes are new IO volumes that handle playback of sound emitters (clientside) based on if you are inside the volume or not.

Also comes with settings for fading sounds and muting outside sounds.

To use Sound Volumes you will have to click on "Collect" to collect all the sound emitters in the volume after placing the sound emitters inside the volume.








With Workshop Soundpacks wrapping up for release, we are now working on defining how you'll be able to set custom music for your game world levels. There will be a new IO module called Game World Music Manager. You can set custom music for each type of stage of the game world, if you don't set any sound it'll use the default game world music.





We also added playlist support to sound emitters. While enabled, you can add multiple sounds that will play one after another and can be used for Workshop Sound Emitters


Joshua worked on getting the new workshop rig ready for release.

Lifeless worked on new accessibility options.

macdguy worked on the sound emitter playlists, important libretro fixes, and various SDK things.

Nuclearxpotato continue working on a new Minigolf map.

Sketchman worked on fixing some outstanding issues and bug fixes.

Will continued working on music.

Hey everyone, we’re back to talk about what we’ve been up to in April, what we’re going to get up to in May, and other topics!



We’ve got more fun events lined up for you all in May! Once again, be sure to let us know what events you want to see in the game. We really appreciate any input you all have on these. We’ve also made a thread to keep track of any suggestions you have here.

The Cornelius and Birb Makeship plush campaign was a success! You guys rock! We sold 726 plushes, and we are so grateful for everyone’s support with the campaign. They’re now being made, so if you bought a plush, keep an eye out for more info on shipping from Makeship in the coming months!

Keep an eye out for future merch collaborations with Makeship as well!

During April we were hard at work on the Bumper Cars update!

As Bumper Cars is a Plaza attraction, it was a tricky process to work on and test as we have to work on the large main Plaza level. Working on that level can often bring about issues with lighting and other parts of the game that are inter-connected, but Bumper Cars is finally released!

We’re so glad it’s finally out to you all, and its been awesome to see you all having fun with it. We also got a hot fix out to resolve any issues that popped up along the way.

These are the big features on our minds post-Bumper Cars:

• Minigolf SDK
  
• Ball Race SDK
  
• Workshop Sound Packs
  
• New Workshop Rig
  
• Transit Station Optimizations/Art Pass
  
• Arcade, SDNL, & Game World Maps

We’re shifting our focus to completing the Minigolf SDK, which will allow players to create custom Minigolf maps! It’s an ambitious feature, but it’s going to be fun for you all and also help give us streamlined tools when making Minigolf maps in the future!

During April, progress has been made on various features of the Minigolf: SDK, such as:

• curved ramp tool
  
• side shifter tool
  
• improvements and additional features for existing tools
  
• half pipe tool
  
• s-bend tool

We’re in the final stretch of creating all of the assets for the Minigolf editor, and just need to finish up some additional tools as well as setting it all up.

Like we’ve said before, these Minigolf tools require a lot more work than other Game World Map tools, and we have to balance what we’re working on between the different projects going on. But, we’re making a lot of progress with it!

We are also working on getting the Ball Race SDK out, which comes with its own tools, such as a spline platform tool (Canvas Spline Mesh), custom music support (with ogg), and leaderboards for Workshop maps.

For leaderboards, we are planning a way to create staff-approved leaderboards for SDK maps which will work the same as our normal leaderboards but tied to the Workshop map. This process will be similar to the staff-approved unit payouts that both Minigolf and Ball Race will require. The staff-approved process will be done by us tagging a Workshop map as “Unit Approved” and then the unit payouts & leaderboards will be enabled for that map. This is planned so we can ensure maps are made fairly and not just for unit boosting.

We’re really excited to share we’ve been working on Workshop Sound Packs. These will allow players to upload custom sound packs to the Workshop to use in their Condos and SDK Maps! This feature should be available in the next update.

We’re also very close to finishing a guide for the new Workshop rig and putting some finishing touches on implementing it in the game, and that will be coming out very soon as well.

We also wanted to share that we’ve been doing optimization work as well as an art pass on the Transit station, which will improve performance and visuals.

We’ve gotten started on implementing voice lines for SDNL, but, since working on the Boardwalk, we’ve also been talking about shifting gears and getting some work done on the Arcade as we discussed at the beginning of the year. These discussions have been about finishing games that have artwork, adding new games, and doing optimization work.

There has already been progress on that optimization work, mainly reducing server-side CPU calculations to help with server performance.

Game World Maps are still always in development and waiting for an opportunity for testing and release, and we’re experimenting with some fun ideas for upcoming ones that we’re excited to see come to fruition.

There’s a couple of things we wanted to touch base on in regard to backend work.

In previous Dev Updates, we brought up the Patron rewards as well as Dedicated Condos work. Patron rewards have had some delays as we were prioritizing a new ban appeal system that will better streamline our moderation process, and dedicated Condos have had delays due to Plaza Optimization work mentioned above. You should see progress on both soon.

We’ve also been working on more thoroughly going through and organizing our forum backlog of bug reports, crashes and other game issues, as well as suggestions. We may ask for some feedback from you all to help us out with narrowing down existing issues in a survey some time, so keep an eye out for that.

That’s gonna do it for this Dev Update, thanks for reading!
