v0.6.1 — "Wait for input" fix and minor improvements
Whimtale game engine » Devlog
Hi, whimsical cryptids 👋 This is a small update that I may or may not have coded during an hour-long work break that fixes a regression in “Wait for input” block, as well as some other minor oversights, and updates Russian translation.
⚡ Improvements
- Scenario editor: Blocks in the block library will show help when available when hovered, similarly to how blocks on the canvas do it already.
- 🌐 Update Russian translations
🐞 Bug fixes
- Asset browser: Disable scrolling of the assets list while the sorting mode is active
- Desktop: Fix the starting screen not being scrollable
- Modals: Default “Cancel” and “Ok” buttons in some modal windows will now be translated.
- Scenarios: Fix regression with “Wait for input” block that appeared with the introduction of keyboard navigation
- Runtime: Restarting a story will now properly reset hero’s visibility state and rotation
