Wasted 0.7.5 released
A small release aimed at fixing some bugs and introduce a few little features
Hello There! Wasted 0.7.5 is here, bringing some new features and some bug fixing too. Let's dive deeper.
This release is a small one and mainly focused to fix some bugs.
Bugfixing
The Atoka was added back to the official cars list so can now be selected as a car during online matches.
We also now set the default difficulty in the server config to "hardest" to basically allow us to take full advantage of the cars characteristics.
You will now spawn back on track if you fall down from a tutorial or free roam map! Finally no more falling into the void!
The FPV camera now is being initialized correctly depending on the length of the car! No more funny bonnets!
Multiplayer
We now punish inactive players! If you don't move in 30 seconds, you get a penalty of 10HP. It seems low but overtime it can build up and make you die in a couple of minutes.
Personalization
You can now select a random color for your car! The option for now is in the user screen but in the future it will be moved in a dedicated garage screen.
We added a button which randomly selects a color for your car so you don't have to pick one.

UI And appearance
New icons were introduced in modals and screens to replace the old supertux ones.
The timer in the free roam mode was also fixed now so that it is now placed correctly at the end of the right border of the screen.
Releases and Building
Wiiuse dependency was removed making the game now lighter and easier to build. We don't need the build anymore since we don't support wii builds or the wii controller anyway.
Curl dependency was also updated to 8.11.1.
Cars
One out, one in.
We removed the 222RS and we added a new car.
Welcome EZ-1! And thanks crystaldaevee again!

We also improved the cars characteristics and suspensions rigidity which allows them to climb obstacles easily now.
After a small summer break development of 0.8.0 will start again and I expect to give you some more good news!

Hope to give you some news soon again!
Happy destruction!
