    Since it's a slow day, I decided to talk about one of my pet peeves: wrenching animation. It isn't smooth. At the end of the animation it will stay frozen in the rest position for maybe half a second. Maybe it's a smaller fraction than that, but it actually feels much longer than that to me. It just drives me nuts. I made a small video comparing that animation with a pickaxe's.

     

     

     

    Thanks, now I can't unsee it.

    I've really been enjoying A20. I think builders will have a blast with all the new toys.

    1.) New shape menu
    2.) Stability shader shows in real time which is really nice.
    3.) Loads of new shapes... LOADS.
    4.) Wood is decent to build with.
    5.) Upgrade path is simple and less frustrating, less pounding/time wasted upgrading to a million materials.

    6.) Land claim seems very generous, I don't know if this has changed though.
    7.) All shape menus are the same.

    8.) Building with particle board is a huge win versus the transparent frames. You can see exactly what you are building now, like before getting a wedged incline block rotated the right way was tricky because you couldn't see very well.
     

    Overall building is vastly improved. It's really nice not getting in the dev menu to get the blocks you want, and much easier to find/navigate IMO.

     

    Man, I can't f*cking wait for this update! You're such an awesome team and your game is amazing. Thank you guys for your hard work! :)
