Beta 0.6.3.0
Creative mode is now an option beneath single player, in which building, enchanting, and crafting are all free. You can also take no damage. The primary reason for creative mode being to play around with building tools and item creation, which is in the works, though this is definitely just the first step. There is no "item menu" as is common in some other games. You start out knowing all recipes, and everything ignores the requested ingredients so you can simply craft and build whatever you like. And you can go ahead and level up and adventure as normal like that if you prefer.
I was able to build a new computer last Friday. My old PC had some parts that were ten years old. I didn't get anything fancy, but it's definitely an upgrade and is compiling and exporting patches noticeably faster! That also means reinstalling everything, which can take quite a while, and I took it as an opportunity to upgrade Unity from 2018.4.12 to 2018.4.16.
As is common when upgrading Unity, after preparing this latest patch I immediately ran into a bug that was causing headless servers to not work at all. It took the greater part of a day from me and a fellow developer to narrow it down and submit a reproduction project to Unity for fixing. Luckily it was something that I can bypass, and it should not be affecting headless servers.
What I've been working on yesterday and today, an item template creation interface, needs a few more hours, and should be ready for testing tomorrow.
