Title: Beta 4 will be released this week
Post by: Dan Dixon on February 14, 2010, 12:51:12 PM: I'll be releasing Beta 4 in the next 7 days.

My goal is to have completely ripped out the old UI and have replaced it with all new controls and tools by the end of this week. So far, it's coming along slowly but well.

Edit: One of my RAM-things probably weren't broken, they've tried to replace nearly everything and are now trying to replace my motherboard. But whatever.

Post by: Dan Dixon on February 19, 2010, 07:29:05 PM: Sorry to disappoint. The current build is in a very unstable state right now so I'm going to delay the Beta 4 release until next week.

Make sure you solve my startup problem.

Saying it like it is, it's amusing.

Feel free to throw in a "Please" next time. :)

How does it work better?

- The bodies no longer rotate the wrong way when rolling around on a larger sphere.
- Bodies acted like they were in air before, slowing down over time, which required a hack to counteract this (which was only approximate). The hack is gone and they now correctly act like they're in a vacuum.
