Zeepkist Beautiful Beta - Version 16, Patch 36 & 37

Patch 36:

- Added a golf ball, it uses the same physics as the small football
- Updated XG-01, XG-02, XG-03, and XG-04 to have golf balls instead of footballs



Patch 37:

- Added a new property to ball spawners, which acts like gate behavior like you see on other logic gates.

The options are
  • Any Enters: Ball gets dropped any time a physics object enters the trigger
  • First Enters: Ball gets dropped any time a physics object enters the trigger, and no other physics objects are in the trigger
  • Any Exits: Ball gets dropped any time a phyiscs object exits the trigger
  • Last Exits: Ball gets dropped any time a phyics object exits the trigger, and there are no other physics objects left in the trigger


Should give you all a bunch more control of logic :)

It should not affect existing ball spawners, because the default option (Any Enters) is the same way ball spawners worked previously.

Zeepkist Beautiful Beta - Version 16, Patch 35

Patch 35:

- Fixed a performance bug where too many toilets would lag the game too much
- Rear wheel suspension in garage now shows correct suspension model
- Fixed a bug where player names would go missing if invisible spectating was turned on (I hope)
- Added "Static First Person" spectate camera mode to online
- Updated the "Camera 1 - Camera 8" keybinding labels to show what they are specifically
- Added "Don't Display Block IDs" setting to level editor, for people who were distracted by the numbers constantly changing
- Added "Smaller System Frog Messages" accessibility setting, for people who were distracted by the big frog system messages

Halloween Gift Hunt is live now!!

Halloween Gift Hunt


Heyo Zeepkisters!! It's finally October!!

That means it's time for the first ever seasonal gift hunt!!

With the release of v16 came the "gifts" feature: Levels have hidden gifts that, when found, give you a cosmetic! With that, I added the ability for certain gifts to be "season-specific". Special gifts that only show you during a specific time of the year!

And the Halloween October gift hunt is the first season specific gift hunt!!

Halloween gifts look like pumpkins, like this:



And you can find them in any Zeepkist adventure level!

They work just like any other gift, except that they're only available during October. But don't worry if you can't get all of them this year! The same seasonal gifts return every year! :)

Lastly, here's some pictures of the cool Halloween swag you can find in Halloween gifts! :D







Happy gift hunting!!!!

- Laid some groundwork for future things
- Double checked that the Halloween Gift Hunt will work
- Moved several wide tires further outside a bit, to prevent clipping zeepkist geometry
