The Lewis Update

In this update we added lewis structure fields for over 150 molecules! And while at it, we made it so the crystal structure field gets hidden when there is no structure instead of displaying a big ugly text saying “There is no crystal structure”. And of course there is no update without new molecules, so we also added a lot of new molecules ranging from Dopamine to Vitamin A.



Improvements:

-Crystal structure displayer now gets hidden if there is no structure to display.
-Added a button for moving placed elements/molecules.
-Got rid of the smart board option on the main menu as it was no longer supported.
-Added variations for the loading screen images.
-Added hyperlinks to quest “to do” texts that open tutorials for the first few quests.
-Molecules button’s icon is now actually a molecule(don’t ask why it wasn’t).

New Features:

-Added an option to the main menu for disabling molecule rotations.
-Added lewis structure section to molecule selection pop-up.
-Holding alt when placing an element/molecule will place it 3 times.
-Added 9 new molecules.
-Added 69 new reactions.
-Added 5 new quests.
-Added 2 new tutorials.

Bug Fixes:

-Fixed Hydrogen’s color in the electronegativity periodic table.
-Fixed a bug where molecules would spawn inside each other.
-Fixed a bug where some reactions’ products were empty.
-Fixed a typo in KCl’s common name.

The August Update

In this update, we introduced a reward-checking mechanic to the quest mode. As we frequently update quests, we may also change the rewards they yield in the future. To make sure no one gets stuck because they completed a quest before its rewards were changed we added a refresh button to the quest page. It will work every time you enter the quest mode, however, in case a glitch occurs, you can always click the brand new refresh button we have added to the top left corner of the quest page.

Improvements:

-Optimized the quest detection progress and some other stuff.

New Features:

-Added a refresh button to the quest page for manually checking quest rewards.
-Added a custom cursor.
-Added 15 new molecules.
-Added 12 new quests.
-Added 59 new reactions.
