February Update 2021 [v0.6.0] with Online Server and more

Hello together,


here are the new features:







Online Server


First of all, some information about the single player and LAN functionality:





For the online server I had to integrate a connector. This switches to a different information forwarding as soon as one is connected to the online server.



In case the server does not run anymore or you want to start your own server, we have already prepared something.
The IP of the online server and the port is integrated in the settings.json and can be changed at any time.



I make the online server available to everyone. It is accessible under the following Gitlab project:
