• Boss nick/bar canvas will refresh only when it's necessary (at least I hope so).
• SC_boss.FixedUpdate will always execute directly after server commands from now.
• crash_size has a limit from now, which means, thats crash damage can't be dangerously high.

Bug fixes:

• Impulse "god-mode" is no longer possible through cheats.
• SND_fire sound (for fire and wind bullets) had some weird artefacts at the end.
• Error texture in storages was magnetic alien instead of particle texture.
• Respawn had a broken behaviour while holding mouse both over UI and over it.
• It was possible to highlight storages and even activate a boss while not alive.

• Other players' respawns weren't visible when player wasn't living.
• Fixed bug, which was sometimes causing unexpected player movements.

• Camera could sometimes shake after player's death.
• UI wasn't disappearing instantly after entering pause menu.
• Diodes on vanishing asteroids could sometimes cause some weird visual bugs.

• Unstabling could be used when having stickybulb effect.

Thanks for your attention. Enjoy Space Eternity 3 and wait for more games in the future!

Kamiloso

Hello again, today I'm publishing a very small update "Beta 2.2b". Here are all changes:

• Star brightness reduced from 3.5 to 2.5.
• Geyzer volume reduced from 0.25 to 0.16.
• Fixed bug, which was causing screen refreshing every time R was pressed.
• Chat is now positioned correctly on other than 16:9 screen ratios.
• Player on singleplayer could use items while having keep inventory enabled and not living.
• Messages from previous server connection could execute on the next opened universe.
• Asteroids hidden through seon still had their SC_stuck colliders active, which could prevent players from interacting with some fobs.

Additionally, I reuploaded the server to fix some bugs:

• Drill anti-cheat could prevent players from drilling in asteroid variants other than default.
• Bosbul colliders weren't updating when new asteroids were generating.

Thank you for your attention and see you next time! (I hope in 2.3)

• when player was not alive in multiplayer, other players' projections were simplified
• sticky bulb was not always reducing velocity, velocity reduction changed because of technical reasons
• there were integer 32 bit asteroid ID errors when over 200k coordinates from the center of the universe
• pause menu wasn't blocking raycast, so it was possible to interact with certain things during pause
• healing potion use was blocking healing even if it was not necessary when waiting for server response

Welcome to another update of Space Eternity 3!
This blog post covers most of the things released in this version.

Note: This post was edited by Nadwey and shows some things wrongly. Repairing it is not a big priority due to introducing new features in future versions :)
