Intersect Beta 5 Released!

December 1st, 2018

 

 

This update is HUGE and took FOREVER, so thank you to everyone who has stood by us, and we hope you all enjoy! (Don't forget to report all bugs!)

 

 

What to look for in Beta 5:

• New network debugging command to help us help you get your games online!  (Link)
• Reworked Crafting Table/Crafts editors which require far less work to setup! (Link)
• Improved design to the item/resource/event/quest/etc requirement screens. (Link)
• Json format for strings, config, formulas, etc which will retain your changes better as the engine continues to evolve.  (Link)
  • This will be especially good for those who translate Intersect to different languages.
• The client now has screenshot functionalities. (Link)
• Server status label, and other interface upgrades. (Link)
• And about 30 other really cool changes! (Beta 5 Wrap-Up Link)

 

 

For those migrating from B4:

• Please note that the migration process is long and only tested on a handful of games, be on the lookout for migration issues and if you notice any report them asap.

 

 

Special Thanks:

• Due to the combined efforts of @Khaikaa, @Raku, @Mcadams, @Zetasis, @Niko, and @dxxknight well over 50 bugs were found and fixed prior to this hopefully making B5 rather stable from the get-go. Thank you all for all your help!

 

 

Up Next

Beta 6, which is pretty small, a password reset system, some other small things and that's about it!

Just had a first look at this... seems like the JSON files lost all comments. I konow JSON does not really support comments, but it is usually done by inserting fields with a special marker.

Here are two examples how it could look like:

 

  "Map": {
    "_GameBorderStyle": "0 for seamless with scrolling that stops on world edges. 1 for non-seamless, and 2 for seamless where the camera knows no boundaries. (Black borders where the world ends)",
    "GameBorderStyle": 0,
    "ItemSpawnTime": 15000,
    "ItemDespawnTime": 15000,
    "ZDimensionVisible": false,
    "WidthHeight_comment": "DO NOT TOUCH! These values will resize the maps in the engine and will CORRUPT existing maps. In MOST cases this value should not be changed. It would be wise to consult us before doing so!",
    "Width": 32,
    "Height": 26,
    "TileWidth": 32,
    "TileHeight": 32
  },

 

I dont think comments in there are really required, but just a heads-up if youre looking for a way to re-add them.

 

Anyway, looking really good so far 

[Hickie]

Migration went smoothly :D

Make sure you follow the migration steps.

You either migrated and missed step 5-6.. or just tried to copy over your "resources" folder from an old version which would still require step 5-6 to be done from here:

Running awesome so far. Previous project migration seems to have worked great.

 

Edit: Love the fact that it set up all my npc conditions based on my old settings like "guards" and stuff. I was worried I was going to have to set everything back up but now I can just focus on the new stuff with the npcs I have already created.

Loving it! 

 

Transition has been relatively smooth. So really happy! 

[Garlic]

Fixed my issue.

 

Also amazing update. Love the shortcut keys, makes a lot of people happy, and my fiancee can finally play too! She was getting 3-4 fps but now 50+.

Your Mono is outdated.  I'm using 5.10.0.179, I'd recommend that so something newer.
