[img=https://pbs.twimg.com/media/Co8jkGiWgAAZIv3.jpg:large] Put on your walking legs and prepare to Strut Your Stuff! Coming tomorrow is Robocraft’s next expansion, Strut your Stuff! With it comes a whole load of new content, some taking the community by surprise, some specifically asked for by our players and some which has long since been desired! All of the content below will be available once the update goes live tomorrow, so until then, just enjoy the patch notes so you know exactly what’s coming! NEW STRUTS

• Special armor types which are shaped similarly to Aerorods but are bigger, heavier and more highly armored. They open up a whole new set of build options for creating reinforced locations on your robot, gun mounts and protective shielding. Alternatively, their unique shapes also offer whole new artistic options for the visual builders in our community!
• In total they come in eight shapes and sizes which should see to all and any uses you might have for them!
• They cost between 9 and 15 CPU each, are Epic quality, and have the same Armor-Per-CPU of full armor cubes!

• As voted for by over 14,000 members of the Robocraft community, Strut Your Stuff brings with it a Center of Mass indicator!
• Center of Mass shows the center point of your robot’s mass based on all your armor and components, and their location on your robot.
• This is great new functionality to help you balance your robots and figure out why they might be moving in wierd and wonderful ways!
• Press “O” to show Center of Mass or click the tick-box in the settings menu

• To aid both budding Robocrafters and veterans alike, we’ve introduced a number of important robot stats in Edit Mode!
• New stats show are: Total health, Total shield, Average health + shield per CPU, Total mass, Average mass per CPU.
• We expect this to help players better classify their robots and gain a better understanding of how their robots stand up to those of their friends!
• Press “I” to show these stats or click the tick-box in the settings menu

• Mech Legs have had their mass reduced across the board. Click here for exact numbers.
• Tank Tracks have had their mass reduced across the board. Click here for exact numbers.
• To go along with the Tank Tracks’ reduction in mass, various values that affect their handling have been tweaked to make them more stable.
• Rod Diagonal 2D mass has been increased to 4.0kg (up from 3.0kg).
• Rod Diagonal 3D mass has been increased to 5.0kg (up from 3.0kg).
• The mass of the two Rod Diagonal parts mentioned above were incorrect and were always intended to be their new mass.

• The “Anti-Gunbrella” effect has been removed, as have the Barrier Protection and Resistivity statistics for armor and components. More details on this can be found here.
• New visual and audio effect to clearly show a player has the benefit of faster health regeneration after spawning.
• All new Bloom and Lens-Flare effects have been introduced into Robocraft. They appear on various locations such as components, weapon fire effects and more. They’re very nice.
• Robocraft is upgrading its networking code from using Unity 4 to Unity 5.3.5. For more info, click here.
• The EMP visual effect has been increased in size to match the stun radius.
• The EMP visual effect has also been reworked to look more electric than ever.
• Renamed “Single Player” to “AI TDM” in the Controls menu.

• Fixed a bug which caused a robot’s name and the “BAY” text to overlap in the CRF.
• Fixed a bug which caused projectiles to spawn too far ahead of the muzzle flash.
• Fixed a number of locations in the tutorial where it wasn’t possible to exit.
• Fixed a bug which caused Teslas to deal damage from a greater range than intended.
• Fixed a bug which caused Insect Legs to appear upside down in the Crate Opening screen.
• Fixed a bug which caused attacks made through two Disc Shields to ignore both the shields.
• Fixed a bug which caused players to not receive the early-leaver penalty in TDM.
• Fixed a bug which occasionally caused new items in your inventory to not be flagged as ‘NEW’.
• Fixed the early leaver warning text as previously the full message wasn’t being shown.
• Fixed a bug which caused the Robocraft intro video to not scale properly on different resolutions.
• Fixed a bug which caused the locking of your camera instead of just your robot when stunned by an EMP module.
