Who wants a RELEASE CANDIDATE with a BUNCH of changes?!
"Sophie, how many changes?"
Well, let me tell you...
Additions:
- Overhauled how dice are dragged:
- click & drag from empty space to drag all dice (as before)
- click & drag a specific dice to drag just it (and add new dice to your hand by dragging over them)
- click empty space to reroll all dice
- click specific dice to show a dice control menu
- Using the dice control menu you can now
- reroll the selected dice individually
- remove the dice
- Pin/unpin dice
- Disregard/count dice
- Dice pinning - when pinned, dice value won’t change until it is unpinned and rerolled.
- Manual dice disregarding - toggle whether dice counts towards results. This is reset once the dice is rerolled. Also you cannot “un-disregard” dice that have been disregarded by roll expressions
- Dice on the hotbar can now be reoredered on the settings’ dice list. Just click and drag the dice icons there.
- Added free and fixed camera modes for PC, press “c” to cycle to them from the default dynamic mode.
- in free cam mode, you can move and turn the camera (WASD movement, RF for vertical)
- in fixed cam mode, the camera will not move at all, and when dice are regrouping they will try to do so in the center of the camera’s view
- Can now hide the main UI by pressing the tab key, if you want nice screenshots without the UI
- added “Throw Force Multiplier” option to adjust how much extra force is added for dice throws, by default this is higher on android
- added “Shaded dice fonts” option to toggle simplified font shading (should render a bunch faster if you have many many dice)
- Dice with the same material are now be batched/GPU instanced, this should make for faster rendering of pools of dice
- Added new dice shapes
- Pencil
- Reuleaux tetrahedron
- Reliaobble d1
- Curved cube
- Fidgiepiggle
- Neila Sulagartsa
- Impossible collider versions of bipyramids and trapezohedra up to 20 faces
- space probe d3
- curved d3 trapezohedron, d3 bipyramid, d6 bipyramid, d8 bipyramid, d10 bipyramid
- Built a new camera system to replace cinemachine (which had been a pain to work with the whole time tbh)
- gets closer to individual dice
- camera pulls back if too close to table during dice edit mode
- Makes better use of screen space (takes account of both horizontal and vertical field of view and makes every dice fill the screen when possible)
- Incorporated Sinput, and its input rebind menu
Changes:
- All UI now fits screen width in portrait display
- Updated dice edit UI and saved roll edit UI to be MUCH more organised and a lot more readable/easier on the eyes
- In dice edit, extra face edit controls such as size, colour and sound effect are now hidden behind a “show more/less” toggle
- Shaking to reroll on android now delays the screen sleep as if you had touched the screen, so you have time to read the result
- ‘Disregard’ icons for each dice (displayed when dropping/counting) are only instantiated if needed. this should speed up dice spawning a little
- Now all numbers under 100 that can be read differently when upside down are underlined when displayed on dice faces
- Right-click/long-press on hotbar buttons for dice and saved rolls now shows a popup menu which lets you select whether you want to edit/clone/delete the dice/saved-roll you selected
- Changed number inputs on android to use a different keyboard capable of typing negative number values
- Removed “Delete” button from dice edit screen
- The camera will now return to it’s default position when there are no dice
- File IO errors should now be displayed when there is a problem loading/saving data
- Made die rotation control in die edit mode more sensitive
- Adjusted weighting of the skull shape
- Lowered the maximum allowed physics timestep, this should help keep things running smooth when there are a lot of dice at once
- Changed dice edit UI when in portrait view and made it so you can hide the UI and preview the die you are editing
- Optimised UI so it isn’t rebuilt unnecessarily
- ported project to unity 2019.1.2
- Optimised some dice notation expression roll conditions
- More dice shapes can be stretched:
- Barrels, crystals, coins
- Sophie Six
- curved-face bipyramids and trapezohedra
- Renamed dice:
- 8-sided bipyramid is now Tetragonal Bipyramid
- Rhombohedron is now Trigonal Trapezohedron
- Sharp Tennis Ball is now 2-sided cube
- 3-Sided Hexahedron is now 3-Sided Cube
- Changing dice shape now resets the stretching to default
- Rescaled/positioned face labels:
- 13-sided barrel
- 3-sided battel
- 4-sided octahedron
- Clicking the submit button for an empty roll expression will now do nothing but display a message
- Graphics quality setting is now displayed as a dropdown instead of a list of buttons
- adding a new saved roll will now default to saving whatever dice are currently rolled, even if they were not rolled by an expression
- Added an image for the application configuration dialogue screen on PC
- made camera transition to it’s fixed position faster when dragging dice to throw
- Reorganised the settings menu into titled categories
Fixes:
- Choosing “Done” on android keyboard when entering roll expressions will now roll the expression immediately
- When choosing a different shape in dice edit mode, the name of the die won’t be changed unless it is in the format of “d[NUMBER]”
- Changed face shuffling so face labels do not go off-axis after 100s of rolls without respawning
- Hotbar display now updates when cloning dice in the dice bag list
- Fixed the Mine Octahedron labels (they were originally the same as a trapezohedron d10)
- Removed “How would you like to die?” and “Let’s Roll” message from android edit screens (they were obscured by other UI in portrait mode)
- Fixed error that could happen when active dice collide with a dice that is being edited
- Fixed dice “Save as copy” bug where a copy was made, but changes were made to the original dice
- Fixed saved roll “Save as copy” not labelling the new saved roll as a copy
- Fixed issue on android where rotating a dice you are editing would snap a little uncontrollably on the first frame of dragging it
- Made it so if the current resolution/ui scale will have overlapping/inaccessible panels in dice edit mode, the portrait layout will be used instead
- Will now FINALLY use whatever screen orientation setting the android OS specifies - options for screen rotation have been removed since they are now unnecessary.
... THAT many changes. :D
