community training levels only are added when community maps setting is on and player clicks on training
if you die after clearing fewer than 4 levels the difficulty settings automatically opens
improved text formatting on updates

bug fixes
new community map!! underpass by Richard0820
duplicated power ups aren't circles
metastability makes power ups triangles instead of circles
3->4 seconds of half life before exploding
only metastability duplicated power ups have the lighting graphic
mob's that fall off the map now die instead of just being removed
so they can still spawn power ups
you can pick up power ups from slightly farther away (450)
but less far away when not facing the power up (100)
accretion has less lag at high amounts of heal power ups following you
several other bug fixes
setting - minimal HUD
remove: defense bar, damage bar, tech, in game console
improved text clarity on coupling

no longer provides immunity for 1 second after exiting rewind
spawns 20% fewer bots
deflecting changes
shielded mobs take 50% more energy to deflect
deflecting shielded mobs now only disables your shield for perfect diamagnetism and not for very long
you can deflect any mob if you have at least 5% energy, but if deflecting brings you below that your shield is disabled for 1 second
also you can't passively regen energy while shield is disabled
standing wave rework
coupling gives iceIX -> max energy
expansion gives deflection efficiency -> +50 max energy
spherical harmonics gives 40 -> 50% deflection efficiency
electronegativity is a fieldTech for standing wave, wormhole, and pilot wave
also 0.15 -> 0.22% damage per energy
dynamic equilibrium is no longer unlocked by standing wave
tech: surface plasmons - after deflecting drains all your energy, shoot lasers in every direction
added a generic system to add code that loops for a set time
Example code:
simulation.ephemera.push({
name: "uniqueName",
count: 60, //cycles before it self removes
do() {
this.count--
if (this.count < 0) simulation.removeEphemera(this.name)
//run code here
},
})
