Is there any specific engineering reason that Clouds has to be under Terrain rather than Lighting?

It makes a lot more sense under Lighting as when I think of clouds I think of various other lighting-related objects like atmosphere, fog, skyboxes, and whatnot. Clouds have more to do with the sky than the ground, correct?

loueque · July 8, 2021, 12:46am

Pretty neat, although, what’s with the debugging classes and enums, any… specific usecases for developers, or is it for engineers only? Seems interesting.

@M_caw best guess is probably that clouds are from terrain features like water, logically - lighting should be used for atmospheric changes like effects or skybox, aka environment.

”Added a new Velocity Stretch property for particle emitters that have the VelocityParallel orientation that elongates the particle shape in the direction of their velocity based on the velocity magnitude.”

Love to see the attention that particles have been getting lately. Correct me if i am wrong, but I dont think there have been much updates for particle emitters at all since they were released back in 2016. I also hope we can get collidable particles in the future too!

A bit of a shame that all those debugger features are locked; we could really use those out in the Rojo world…

Ah well.

tnavarts · July 8, 2021, 10:57pm

There may be a public API in the long term. Given how complicated an API it is, we just want to work with it internally first on the built in debugger so that if/when we make a public version we can make sure that the API is as clean as possible.

Will T-Shirts be retired on Roblox or will they stay?

Maximum_ADHD · July 10, 2021, 7:53am

They renamed the enums to use TShirt instead of TeeShirt.
