## Major features - Added support for `Extras` in your planet configs. This allows for other mods to extend planet and system configs with new features. - Added new volumes to configs under the `Volumes` module: - Hazard volumes - Notification volumes - Implemented a transparent `cloudsPrefab`. It works mostly the same as normal clouds except that it allows a transparent texture. ## Minor features - Can now toggle atmospheric shock layers with `hasShockLayer`. - Addons can now define `popupMessage` in their addon-manifest. This will show a one time pop-up when the mod is first installed. Use this for story mods to give the user a prompt to go in the right direction with the mod. Means NH now requires [Menu Framework](https://outerwildsmods.com/mods/menuframework/). - `Ring` module now replaced with `Rings` module (can have multiple rings per planet) - Can override the far clip plane for a system from the star system config (you're welcome Jammer) ## Improvements - Various improvements for upcoming Quantum Space Buddies compatibility mod. - Made rain/snow heights more robust for larger planets. - Improved Discord Rich Presence support (icons should show for more addons) - Proxies now have atmospheres and fog - Ship log entry location marking now works in Bramble dimensions. - If the user has an outdated version of Outer Wilds, a warning popup will display. - Adds disabling of renderers/colliders/shapes/lights when you're not at the planet (can be disabled with `keepLoaded`). - Allow ship log details to be added to vanilla planets - Nomai shuttle landing radius is now properly set - Added on screen button prompts when in debug mode - Potentially fixes some threading issues when loading slides - Improved scatter build time by not calling detail builder over and over - Added `preventOverlap` option to scatter. Is on by default but can be disabled to increase performance. Useful when there is low change anything will overlap (prop low density). - Nomai remote cameras (projection pools) display the right camera layers, and better show the protagonist. Uses [CommonCameraUtility](https://github.com/xen-42/ow-common-camera-util) ## Bug fixes - **Addons should now work properly on Linux** - Only autosave debug mode configs if the save button is unlocked. Prevents overwriting your configs unintentionally. - Bramble dimensions will hide Bramble nodes inside then when you're outside. - Translation keys containing < or > or CDATA now work. - Translated ship log facts no longer have the entry ID slapped in front of them - Fix a vanilla bug where being in a conversation and then getting attached to something traps you in dialogue. - Fixed a translation bug that affected Secret Worlds - Does not fix the vision torch bug affecting "The Vision", but will at least log an error when it happens now - Fixed a translation bug where translations for NH itself weren't reloaded when reloading configs
