Rec Room News

[h2]Rooms 2[/h2]

• Improved stability of requesting a player respawn while the player is already respawning.
• Added 'Local Player Started Respawn' and 'Local Player Finished Respawn' CV2 events in Rooms 2.
• Added new Local Player Get Is Respawning chip in Rooms 2
• Performance improvements for Rooms 2 rooms.
• Added a filter so you can toggle free Rooms 2 Inventions in your palette search.

[h2]General Improvements & Bug Fixes[/h2]

• Added magnetic snapping for objects! So positives and negatives really do attract...
• Added an energy bar for Roomie so you can see how much energy your Roomie has left.
• Updated Referee to fix compatibility issues with Medal, ShadowPlay, and other capture software that would cause the game to stop responding.
• We've made a big rewrite of the way Shapes are rendered using the new DEQ system, and how we cope with big rooms on our more limited platforms. This should give better quality and higher framerates, but it is a significant change, so please watch for bugs and report them!
• Coach will soon let you know when rooms you have reported have been removed, with a fancy new message and a cheer! Thanks for all the reporting you do to make Rec Room a safer place :)
• Fixed a case where interactions with objects in VR would get stuck or wouldn't allow you to interact.
• Slight visual fixes for Roomie.
• Made some fixes for voices and subtitles.
• As part of the above, Roomie's subtitles are also now synced with their speech better, and the subtitles will be in batches that make more sense.
• Fixed the Season Pass notification unintentionally appearing each time you respawn - now it only appears when you load into a room.
