v0.11- Custom foundations, new wall building system, multiplayer host saving, squirrels!! And more...

Hey Everyone,

 

This patch introduces our new experimental walls and custom foundations, you can find them deeper in the custom building section of the survival manual. These are a work in progress so haven't fully replaced the old systems just yet. The new wall system gives you complete control over angle and position of walls, is massively faster to place, conforms to terrain and gives you the option to change from wall/doorway/window whilst in blueprint mode. We're really excited to hear what you all think of these, and to see how this changes the bases you construct, as well as which improvements you'd like to see.

 

Other additions include a new animal type, multiplayer host save/load system, gameplay balance, new textures, more grass! and a bunch more stuff, all listed below

 

Save files from 0.10 should continue to work fine in this update! but if you notice anything weird start a new game to ensure everything is up to date

 

As always, please continue to post your bug reports and feedback in the Discussions area of the Community Hub or send them in to [email protected].
