Update 2

Changelog:

New Features/Content

• Underwater – Explore and build underwater. If you find yourself running out of air, try the sub or one of those characters that can breathe (or doesn’t need to breathe) underwater…
• Building Challenge Models! The selected models of the free build challenge will now be in the game as a part of the games base content! A full review of the challenge can be seen here: http://steamcommunity.com/app/332310/discussions/0/535150948593217991/
• Discoveries – For the first time, players will have to do a little more work to discover some of the characters and creatures. This is the first step to what we believe will be a more rewarding Discovery system. But what if you already have everything? Well, you’ll still see the same things but there’s also a new option to reset your save game – without affecting your worlds or brick builds, naturally – so you can start discovering again from scratch. We would highly suggest people give this a try (make a backup of your save data if you want the ability to revert!)
• Map – Never get lost again, unless like us you can’t actually read a map... Anyway, you can’t miss it – it’s got some great features like adding and removing waypoints ( also appear as beams in the world) and different zoom levels. You can tune it up or turn it off too, and just have the beams – let us know how you use it.
• The Camera Item – Snap happy users can take screenshots using the in-game Camera item to capture their favourite builds, creatures or rocks! Warning: taking a picture of a LEGO Jacket Potato doesn’t suddenly make it interesting!
• Virtual Floor – We’ve added a new sub-feature to Brick Building and Tools. This option is an easy way to build in the air, or add detail to a specific layer, or to keep some of your hard work protected while you go crazy creatively. We also slipped in a ‘free’ related feature on the mouse that allows you to place individual bricks in free space at the cross-hair cursor, rather like when using a controller, without altering the way it works normally.
• LXFML Export update – We’ve updated the LXFML export tool to now include props! Any props you place will now be stored within the model data, meaning you’re able to pack up your house and place exactly as it is anywhere you like! We wouldn’t recommend putting your perfect house too close to the Junkyard though, it’ll halve the value!
• Tracking Camera – We’ve added a new Camera Mode. This is a more rigid setup that requires the player to control rotation and distance a lot more, as opposed to the regular Chase Camera.
• GUI – The grids in the various menus have had a little bit of a summer clean and are now neater on screen and easier to see. This is in advance of a more significant set of improvements, coming soon to an awesome LEGO game near you.
• Info Box – You can now hold the BACK button (on a wired XBOX360 controller) to turn it on and off, instead of having to navigate the pointer. As with the GUI grids, this is a small convenience in advance of bigger improvements.
• Abilities – There are quite a few cool / awesome / funny little things going into this update. We might tease some of them, but for now you’ll have to wait.
• Content – Well, we said above there’s less emphasis on new content, but you can still expect a few new discoveries, plus the winning competition builds. And don’t forget ongoing new animations and audio! We’ve also updated the interactions and functionality of a few items. Hopefully you can SEE the improvement…
• Added Language support – we have now included support for the following languages:
  • Italian
  • Japanese
  • Polish
  • Brazilian Portuguese
  • Dutch
  • Chinese
  • Mexican Spanish

v0.40 - Update 3

Changelog:

New Features/Content

• Quest System Improvements - Several Characters now also have quests AFTER they’re unlocked. This will allow us to author more interesting quests down the line and even allow for us to create random events that occur within the worlds. Perhaps you’ll find some spooky goings-on?
• Updated Skybox - A huge overhaul to the skybox system shows off much improved visuals during both day and night and sees a vast improvement to the natural lighting. From the warm glow of sunrise, through to the twinkling starry nights, your world looks drastically more alive. And fear not, the improved lighting is actually more efficient than the previous setup, so performance won’t suffer because of it.
• Vehicle Camera Fixes- We’ve improved the vehicle physics and sharpened up the camera while you’re in vehicles. The controls still remain the same for now – with options to come a little later – but these changes mean the vehicles now handle more like you’d expect when using WASD.
• Fixtures and Fittings - Does your house have a noticeable breeze/blizzard/volcanic burn running through it? Not sure we can do much about the last one without some industrial air conditioning, but for the rest there is now a selection of working doors and windows in the Brick Building tool! Time to renovate your existing models and make some new ones too! We’ll add more to future updates, and we certainly haven’t forgotten about other bricks, which will come in the future too.
• More Varied Item Discoveries - Tied in to the quest system, some item discoveries now make more sense. For example, we recently unearthed the shocking revelation that apples are actually found on trees rather than in chests as previously thought, so you’ll have to find a suitable tree and give it a whack. There are a number of other examples, but we’re not telling you all of them, that’s your job to figure out.
• Brick Build Blueprints - As well as finding cool items in big chests, you’ll now also have a chance of finding a blueprint for some super cool brick builds. When found, they’ll be added to your brick builds grid in the menu allowing you to place it whenever you want.
• Picture Album - Remember those pictures you took with the camera? Now you don’t need to go foraging for them on your computer, you can view and delete them on the front end.
• Items Backpack - We’re adding a very simple but much quicker way to get to your items. Like many of you, we feel it’s important for gameplay that we don’t keep them embedded in the menus any longer, especially now they’re becoming more fun and useful.
• Minimap Update - We’ve added a nice little feature to the minimap. If you click on it (mouse & keyboard only for now), you will be given a 3D overview of the areas in the world you’ve visited, similar to the preview when you choose your world on the front end. It’s great for tracking progress and finding your bearings!
• Content - There are several new characters (which are SPOOKILY relevant to the time of year), vehicles and props available to discover and unlock too. Make sure to consult with other players to see where they can be found – some of them are really quite rare!

v0.6.0 - Update 5

Changelog:

Interface

• Firstly, we lost the ‘roller’ – we’re not sure where, maybe under a rug somewhere – but it had got out of hand and had to go. The original theory with this system was to give you access to all the functions with a minimal number of inputs, but in practice as we added more functionality it just meant more visual noise, with too much to take in at once, so we took a hammer to it.
• A big part of the simplification process was to move all the settings into a proper Pause menu. This means we can work separately on the settings & config screens, but for now these are still traditional text menus.
• The other main ingredient is the Backpack – everything is now in one place: all the creative tools, and all of your game items. It means that on mouse you’re only a couple of clicks away from whatever you need, and on controller you don’t need to constantly swap modes.
• When you get into a tool, you can use Y to bring up a tabbed grid of everything corresponding to that tool. This is especially important in Brick Building for finding that one special piece. Please note that the ‘recent bricks’ bar has gone missing – this is a temporary convenience for us, and the intention is to have a Favourites tab instead.
• For mouse & keyboard users, for now we’ve locked the grids into position as they have been before, but we intend to support moving and scaling them however you like.
• The info text in the bottom right of the screen is now a bit more useful and a lot less intrusive. There’s certainly more to be done with this, but if you know what you’re doing or don’t like it, you can turn it off by changing Help Text to Off in the Settings pause menu.
• We now support PS4 controllers. It’ll show up as a generic controller in the help text, but works exactly like a 360 pad, with the touch pad acting as the BACK button.
• Speaking of the BACK button, you can now tap it to open the 3D minimap.
• It will soon be possible to switch characters properly using the Customiser, but there are still a few technical hurdles to clear, so unfortunately for now you’ll still have to use the Models Tool Characters menu to switch. You can still spawn characters into the world via the Characters tab in the Models Tool by dragging them out with the mouse.
• We’re still working on a config screen for the controls, and hope to share something about that soon.
• So is it finished? Of course not, there’s loads still to do, but we hope you like where we’ve taken it - whatever your preferred flavour of input - and we welcome your thoughts because we know you’ll have some cool suggestions.

Optimizations

• You know how the game was stalling a lot when generating new chunks of world and making the framerate pretty bad? Well, it seems the giant Project Badger programming hive mind has found a fix. Here comes the science part: it turns out that this was to do with multiple threads waiting for each other to access the same piece of data – the more threads, the worse this could be, which is why in some cases even your ninja PC may have been struggling while you were exploring new areas. Anyway, we hope you see the same improvements that we have.
• Note that this doesn’t help speed up the generation of new chunks, so it may still be possible to catch up. Please rest assured that work to improve this is underway, and a priority for the hive mind – their brains were willingly extracted and merged with each other for this very purpose.
• You may be able to work out that with a little more work on transitions and sensitivity, all of this should give us a solid base for a proper first-person camera. However, there are a lot of issues with the player character to address.

Cameras

• When using the camera item, telescope or binoculars, you can now move around in the first-person view.
• We’ve added a simple variation of the Tracking camera. It’s called Track & Zoom, and it’s essentially does the same thing but will zoom in if your character is obscured, so it’s more useful in tight spaces. So it’s really a combination of the console-style Chase camera that keeps you visible, and the Tracking camera that leaves the view up to you.

Improvements

• Toby & the models crews have been improving many of the biomes – expect to see nicer brick builds, some new props, and some more landscape variation. No brand new biomes just yet, but we have a few in the pipeline. Maybe we’ll post about some of these ideas soon.
• You should see a lot more activity in the worlds. NPCs will entertain themselves if they find something to drive or ride. Some NPCs may also want to get cozy by a nice fire, while others want nothing to do with it!
• Check out those sunsets!
• The head you set on your Custom character now dictates their animations and abilities!

Content

• We made a point of not adding vast quantities of stuff this time, but there are still a few new discoveries for you to make. Why not try making some noise, choosing some special paint, or doing some off-roading? As usual, see what you can find and let everybody know!

Bug Fixes

Update 6

Changelog:

First Person Camera

Well, after huge demand, we have finally given the people what they wanted! A first person camera is now available under the pause options. You can also quickly cycle between camera modes by pressing ‘C’ on the keyboard, or by clicking in your left stick on your Xbox One or Dualshock 4 controllers. The camera will help those who want to explore the various depths of their Worlds caves, and offer added freedom with building too!

Grapple Gun

We’ve also added a nifty Grapple Gun! Zoom around your map in new ways as you zip from point to point with your handy grapple gun. One of our demo Worlds at E3 will actually be a Grapple Gun course, so hopefully we’ll get some fun footage of people trying it out!

New Vehicle Controls (Rotational Controls)

Another update that is hopefully well received, is a new controls setup for Vehicles. The current setup is what was referred to in our last Dev Diary (found here: http://steamcommunity.com/app/332310/discussions/0/350532536104894292/) as ‘Directional’. We’ve added a much simpler ‘Rotational’ controls setup, where movement is defined by a button press, rather than pointing in a direction. This means that on an Xbox controller for example; A is forwards and X is reverse.

Updated Biome Atmospherics & Large Scale Ambient Occlusion

Those of you that read our Dev Diaries will have seen these two aspects mentioned recently. We have added several key changes to some of the visuals within certain biomes, as well as some much needed lighting improvements. The full scope of these changes can be found here: http://steamcommunity.com/app/332310/discussions/0/357284767255140967/ Shiny!

Road Tiles

We’ve added a few of the official LEGO City Road tiles into the Brick Building tool! Set up your cities and towns road networks (and help solve the problem that is the British M6 whilst you’re at it for bonus points!)

We’ve also thrown in a couple of new quests as well for you to try out (as always though, these are for you to find!) and a couple of updates to our characters and creatures behaviours to make them feel a little more alive.

Title Update 3

Changelog:

Major Features

• The Planner Tool - Introducing the Planner, a tool designed to build a house rapidly and with ease! Use the various materials and pre-built wall types to get your new house/town/city underway! You can find the Planner Tool underneath the Build Tool sub-menu options.
• Wall Building - Another update to the Build tool! Instead of just tapping the button to place it, you can now hold the placement button to draw in an entire wall.
• Discoveries Grid changes - After many content updates, DLC and Showcase Content, we’ve come to the conclusion that the Discovery Menu is no longer fulfilling its purpose. As a result, we’ve now added a tabbed system to make it much cleaner to find what you’re looking for, including the addition of Categories to help narrow down exactly what you’re after. Oh, and to make things even simpler, we’ve added a search function so you can really narrow down the ever-expanding list of Discoveries. And check out the Silhouettes to the grids so you can see exactly how much you’re missing! Additionally, you can now delete Custom Characters and Custom LXFMLs too! Sorry that took a while!
• Camera Car - Ever dreamed of being a Movie Director? Perhaps a YouTube personality? Maybe you just love the idea of taking some lovely wallpaper worthy screenshots? Well we have the car for you! A vehicle that can be utilised by either one player or two, providing you with all you need to set some epic action sequences, or possibly re-create that documentary you watched.
• Waypoints - We’ve slightly updated the waypoints. Instead of them scattering around everywhere, they’re much more localised to the area you operate in, and have clearer indications of exactly what they point to.
• Galaxy Map - We’ve slightly tweaked the Galaxy Map again too! We put the options behind a slider (cleverly disguised as PUG-Z) and made it all just a little tidier. Also, instead of a white 2D rocket, a micro-build of PUG-Z flies around the planet you are now on. Much nicer.
• New Landscape Tool shapes - We’ve added a few new shapes to the Landscape tools, to further improve just how you edit your Worlds! Press the ‘Shape’ button while you have a Landscape tool open to see all the new options you have at hand!
• Copy Tool - We’ve made an alteration to how the Copy Tool functions on Controller. You can still choose an exact size, but we’ve also added a nice and simple ‘Hold to expand’ option instead of opening up the box with multiple options.
