Hello Everyone! Today weve got another update for you, bringing a whole load of new level objects & Krolmars desert environment to Besieges level editor, and a bunch of bug fixes for issues that have been reported since the V1.0 release! The new level editor objects are from the new campaign island of Krolmar, so now you can make your own desert levels of doom for your friends or the wider community!
Weve had a lot of really useful feedback about the Automation blocks since they were launched and have been hard at work making improvements to the way they work on a technical level. Key Emulation will now work consistently meaning that low FPS will no longer cause your machine to perform differently. This improvement will be most evident in Multiplayer, where previously lag spikes resulting from people loading in large machines were having a negative impact on machines that rely on an emulation system to function properly. Whilst this improvement will make using automation blocks much smoother in the long run, its possible that some existing machines may respond differently with the new update. (Shameless twitter plug) You can follow us @spiderlinggames to get sneak peeks at cool new features and tech that we're working on, as well as announcements about Besiege and any future projects we work on! Thats all for now folks, hope you enjoy this update and keep on Besiging!
