Hi all, this update adds some minor texture updates to existing blocks as well as some fancy new purple forcefields.
Energy Cells and Energy Pylons
The Decorative Energy Cell and Pylon blocks have had a new cap texture added, as well as had their side texture orientations updated. Additionally, some of their textures have had their colors adjusted to be better in-line with other blocks.
Purple Forcefields
A new purple variant of forcefields have been added, with a unique animated texture designed by MeRobo.
Carved Bricks and Tiles
Several of the Carved Brick and Tile blocks have had their textures adjusted to better match the original Carved Block textures.
All of the above blocks have also had Normal Maps regenerated so they appear with correct lighting in-game now.
Misc. Changes
Implemented some security patches for PlayerData and related classes to prevent exploits.
Screenshots and gifs are now saved in a screenshots sub folder in the StarMade directory.
Thrust Plumes will now work from any direction.
Notes
Some users may notice some new (unused for now) build icons in the game files. Please note that these icons are from the upcoming Universe Update, and we merely backported the icon sheets rather than render all new ones.
And as always, thank you for playing StarMade.
