Heya all, last Snapshot was another big Snapshot, so as expected there is a patch to address some issues as well as make some tweaks! But there is some new stuff, so equip your Frog Suit and let's dive in...
New Factory Tileset: Courtesy of The Flying Dutchman, we now have the [u]SMAS SMB1 Factory Tileset[/u]. It's a really nifty tileset, coming with a new music track as well! Give it a go!
Notable tweaks & additions
- Superballs now need to be 1 sec. off-screen before they're deloaded prematurely. This allows the player to spawn them when off-screen themselves too.
- A new retro background has also been added, the SMW Retro Castle BG! This means there's a BG for each new Retro tileset.
- 2 new platform skins to go along the Mysterious Ruins tileset, and SMW wood & SMAS SMB1 factory platforms received palettes.
- An update on doors! I completely forgot to mention this in the previous changelog, but the SMAS SMB1 received door parity too! There's both more interactable doors, as well as scenery doors for the gamestyle. I gave them a 'new'-label, to draw some more eyes to them.
Speaking of scenery doors, a tweak was made: Tile P-Doors are now also only visible during P-Timers, just like interactable doors.
Lots of bug fixes & other tweaks
For a list of further tweaks, minor additions & bug fixes, see the file below! If no major issues pop up, our next destination will be Snapshot 31.
MORE TWEAKS / SMALLER ADDITIONS
• Big optimization to scrolling through SMAS SMB1 Main Decoration palettes.
• Added the missing long trunk tile to the SMW Retro Grass tileset.
• Added new window tiles to the Retro Castle tileset (that are off-grid).
• Added the SMW Retro Castle theme preset.
• Soccer Balls lose 40% of their speed when they collide from a wall whilst airborne (mid-air wall-bounces retain speed), which feels more natural & realistic.
• The Eyedropper menu is now no longer affected by Darkness & Silhouette filter effects, meaning it's easier to tell what's on them.
• Raccoon Goombas now patrol 6 tiles, instead of 6.5 tiles, which makes it easier to design environments around them.
• Raccoon Goombas now move at half speed underwater (due to this, they can patrol 7 tiles whilst submerged).
• Updated the Italian language file w/ new updates (by ShyGuy97, the creator of the locale).
• Updated the SMAS SMB1 Garden tileset icon to be more in line with the other icons.
• Penguin/Frog Mario entering horizontal pipes whilst swimming now displays their (idle) swimming animation, and they enter/exit through the center of the pipe.
• Some Retro Liquid animation speeds were tweaked to make it easier to tell them apart.
