Modding changelog:
- Converted all .obj files to .ob2 files. You can now load objects through the toolbar "Import Objects" button. The old object load button will later be removed, so convert any files you've made by loading them with the old object load button, then saving them with the "Export Objects" button.
- Existing particles.dat will automatically be converted to particles.ini files. You are free to delete your particles.dat after that.
- Script timers can now have a random variance.
- It's now possible to set how much sunlight a roof filters. Strangely it can also amplify sunlight.
- If you try to move the player to an unexisting map, you now get an error message.
- renamed removeItem to removePlayerItem, and added removeBotItem.
- Separated the hard coded sounds to a separate file, so that modding is easier.
- Ambient sound emitting can now be scripted, and objects can be ambient emitters.
