ANN: v0.8.3 - editing worlds

Added by Josip Almasi 5 days ago

v0.8.3 is out!

World editor

World editor is now under tools menu, available in every space.
Terrain editor and background selector are available in spaces with terrain and background.

Basic functions of world editor are now available as REST API.

Video avatars

Users can now switch between 3D and video avatar at any time. Just go to settings, and turn camera on and off.
Someone may not have a 3D avatar at all; in that case, avatar image will show. If you've logged in with your google or github account, that image will be used. Doesn't work with facebook login though, since facebook doesn't allow public access to profile image.

Of course, this only works with the permission to access the camera.

Reconnect/disconnect

The client will now attempt to reconnect if the connection is lost. Progress indicator shows up, and everything pops up back as it was.

Idle clients disconnect automatically after configured timeout, and do not reconnect automatically.

There's some limitations though, like, server restart - users that were logged in will have to log in again.
Other than that, users just pop back where they were.

Fixes and improvements

Elasticsearch connector fixed
Smoother animations and better avatar positioning
HUD improvements
