This new playlist introduces three new ranks (Ruby, Elite, and Supreme) and a new set of scenarios with three difficulty levels: Beginner, Intermediate, and Advanced.

Score requirements and scenarios may change based on feedback and data collected during the beta to ensure proper balance. Some leaderboards might get reset during the beta, and all of them will reset on release.

Note that the new rank badges are temporary and will be updated near the end of the beta.

This patch adds new bot shading options to make bots look more volumetric, a new jetpack fly mode for bots, a time range filter for statistics, and additional bot settings.

[h3]Bots Shading:[/h3]

This new feature allows bots to look more volumetric and 3d by adding lighting to their model, which can also help with depth perception. List of the settings included:

• Enable Bot Shading? -> If enabled, bots will receive light and shading, this can help with depth perception and provides more volume to bots models.
• Bot Shading Light Intensity -> The intensity from 0 to 150 of the shading light.
• Bot Shading Light Color -> The color of the shading light.
• Bot Metallic -> Adjusts the metallic of the bot.

*The Bot Shading will be enabled by default with an Intensity of 1.0, but can be disabled in Settings > Graphics.



[h3]New Bots Fly Mode - Jetpack:[/h3]

This new fly system is great when you want to make your bot fly but still be affected by gravity, it works by adding a force over time to the bot. List of the settings included:

• Jetpack Randomize Activation Interval
• Jetpack Activation Interval
• Jetpack Activation Chance
• Jetpack Activate when Grounded -> If enabled, the jetpack will always try to activate when the bot is on the ground.
• Jetpack Randomize Force
• Jetpack Max Speed
• Jetpack Force
• Jetpack Time to Full Force -> The time (in seconds) it takes for the jetpack to go from 0 to Jetpack Force. 0 = Instant full force.

• Jetpack Falling Braking Speed -> The rate at which the jetpack attempts to halt downward motion while active. 0 = No braking.
• Jetpack Min Ceiling Clearance -> If the distance between the Bot and the roof is less than this value, the jetpack will deactivate and reset its interval.

Plus, added these general settings to bots:

• Limit Terminal Velocity -> If enabled, limits the velocity of the bot when falling to the Terminal Velocity value. If the bot exceeds the Terminal Velocity then it will slow down based on the Drag without going lower than the Terminal Velocity.
• Terminal Velocity
• Terminal Velocity Drag

This new tool allows you to select multiple spawn points in a selection box easily.
