Editor Updates
The update introduces notable advancements in functionality, performance, quality, and debug support. Users can expect over a thousand optimized ECA triggers, along with an enhanced user experience and improved accessibility options. The update also expands support for various file formats and enhances visual elements, including textures, lighting, and particle effects.
Performance optimizations have been implemented to more effectively manage large numbers of units through improved collision detection and enhanced algorithms. The revamped ECA-Profiler tool assists in identifying performance bottlenecks, while asynchronous error logging has also been introduced.
Furthermore, a portion of the engine code has been migrated from Python to C++, leading to significant performance improvements.
Please note that previous CliCli alpha projects may not be supported due to engine upgrades. Current testing will focus solely on the editor’s functionality, and all created projects will only be playable locally at this time.
This technical test presents a remarkable opportunity for users to engage with CliCli’s cutting-edge features and contribute to its development. Whether you are a seasoned developer or a curious newcomer, everyone is encouraged to unleash their creativity and explore the endless possibilities that CliCli has to offer.
