| + | " | ||
| - | **0.48.4** | + | I've just finished uploading the first new patch of The Universal for a while. Despite the gap since the last, this new one probably won't strike you as particularly significant - There are two reasons for that..\\ |
| - | Mostly a maintenance update | + | 1) I ain't had much time to do much work on it recently.\\ |
| - | Current ship capacities | + | 2) Most of the work that has been done has been on (important) core technologies and on upcoming features that you won't necessarily notice much yet, but will make more things possible in the long-run.\\ |
| + | |||
| + | Most of the changes in this version relate to things on worlds, so those of you who're after new space features will have to wait. I hope to be able to tidy up and improve some of the space stuff in the next month or two, in advance of a galaxy reset towards the end of the year.\\ | ||

| + | - added check so that the galaxy server never re-cycles player accounts for anyone who has donated | ||
| + | - added a new file transfer for sending files from the world server to the client. The new system (which is only used for models & textures at the moment), has a number of advantages ; primarily that you can set an upper limit for all file transfers from your world.. | ||
| + | - Did various bits of work on a new 'Scene Editor' | ||
| + | - Added the ability to have some clientside scripts, mostly for use in building interiors - e.g. You can have a building with an interior that has a region you must walk to to be able to buy items. | ||

| + | - fix for ' | ||
