The garden gnomes are so

Also thank you for giving us the ability to change the wearable during the metadata process of workshop PMs! That will really help alot!

You might not like it, but this is what peak performance looks like.

Finally previews for accessories in Workshop editor, and omg we will be able to finally color them, good stuff.

[Eddieboy]

Workshop Editor: Wearable Preview IS BIG!!!
PLEASE tell me we can finally start creating offsets for every individual hat instead of just one PER category. I wanna fine tune my workshop avatar to perfection.

(Also the possibility of having multiple toggleable outfits on a single workshop avatar instead of having to upload multiple alts (and then redoing the hat offsets on ALL OF THEM.)

[Mid]

Adding to this a Pet Radius slider would be cool, so not all player models have multiple pets bunched up the same way, you barely can see the pets on thicc or huge player models

[Alexman]

will we see a Track maker for Accelerate? but looking forward to that 200cc mode after 150cc

[Big_Blue]

Would it be at all possible for players to make custom offsets for wearables? As in like, altering it as someone using the workshop model. Either way, looks good!

[macdguy]

I’m working on it on still.

[bearly_ankh]

150cc and the Wearable Preview will be sooooo nice to have! Thank you devs for all the work you’ve continuously provided to the community. It genuinely means so much <3

This has been on my mind for a while, as a frequent condo creator, is there any intention for an update pre-1.0 for the ability for custom UI’s and/or an update to NPC dialogue systems?
I’d love to use a lot more NPC’s but the fact that dialogue is randomized, and there is no abilities to expand dialogue past one branch, it makes it really hard to really use them efficiently. I’ve found that I just end up using animated sprite sheets and the condo IO system for any dialogue within my games.

Would love to see a revamp of that system!

once colorable accessories are released, FASHION UNITE shall commence.

Those phones also look hella good.

[Computrix]

Finally! A way to save outfit configurations! I’m glad to see that.
Also happy to see telephone items as more condo decor is always welcome
