Tower Unite [0.1.1.0 patch is HEREEEEEE]

[AtlasBlue]

is this game worth getting yet?
i was a big fan of gmod tower but i hear it lacks a lot of features and lags a lot

You're right about both. Most of the Lobby is nonfunctional (Besides gameworld ports, theatre, and shops, the only thing you can really do is explore.) and there are only 4 gamemodes (Planet Panic, Virus, Ball Race, and Minigolf) out at the time and the game does indeed lag a lot. Unless you really can't help it, I'd hold on to your money for a bit longer.

It's also worth noting that PixelTail has a Trello page that can give people a rough estimate of what's coming in the next few months.

Fixes:
Fixed various Unit exploits
Fixed FOV and mouse sensitivity resetting to defaults when you join a game
Fixed sectional couches being way too large
Fixed sell prompt showing up for appearance items that were not unlocked
Fixed Minigolf customize window being cut off at the bottom
Fixed colorable items not networking properly the colors to condo visitors

Fixed "Winning Team" payout in Virus showing up multiple times
Fixed neon bar being brighter than the sun at certain angles
Improved lamp brightnesses on certain lamps (mainly outdoor ones)
Fixed outdoor wood lamp not respecting its lamp color properly

Fixed Ball Race camera issues where the camera will still not exit out of cinematic mode properly

Changes:
Reworked every level of Nimbus to be easier and fair
You can only see the hats you own in the Minigolf customize menu to avoid confusion and simply the selections
Added mouse invert option
Improved Virus payouts for infected players
Added new Virus payout: Biohazard (per infection bonus) and Bringer Of Death (bonus for infecting the last survivor)
Nighttime is a lot prettier
Improved nighttime performance in Lobby
You can sit in sectional couches now
Added Victorian Couch Chair (Sweet Suite's Furnishings)
In Virus, when the last infected leaves mid-round - the game infects another random player to keep the game going
"Manage Condo" hud prompt no longer shows up to players who are not the owner of the Condo
Plushies are now interactable and colorable
Added Condo locations, so you know where your friends are at
Added more roof textures to Condo editor
More of the condo can be colorable/wallpaper edited

What we’re actively working on:
Memory leaks
Linux dedicated Lobby servers crashing
Condo / Lobby door connections
Casino
Theater vote skip
Key binding (requires 4.11)
Server sorting
Virus weapons sometimes appear out of the hands of other players
Not being able to shoot in some areas (mainly doorways) in Virus
Placing canvases (and other items) on walls does not work properly and rotates around like crazy

Just a heads up, we're migrating to Unreal 4.11 this week, so patches may be slower.
You can track our progress with future updates on our Trello: https://trello.com/b/6BwRMiPw/tower-unite-roadmap

The soundtrack is now available.

Ok so I looked at the FAQ and I'm still confused about data transfers, should it be immediate or is it over time?

they're working on the data transfer tool right now, we'll probably see GMT data being moved across in a month.

The fact you were banned makes me hate you. A permaban from pixeltail is rare. Im sure you were trolling alot of the time and would never stop. This post can actually link to admitance to trolling if you seriously go far.

I wasn't doing anything at all, a friend of mine who was talking stuff about Mistaria banned us all even though I had nothing to do with the entire conversation. That's the reason why I'm upset.

The 0.1.1.0 patch has been released.

We're happy to release 0.1.1.0 for you all!

Indiegogo Backer Digital Items
This update includes the digital backer items for our Indiegogo backers. If you have linked your Steam Account to the backer panel, you'll receive your digital items directly after the splash screens in-game. We are still working on custom backer rewards and you can follow progress on our Trello.

Condo To Lobby Link (Peer 2 Peer)
We've been ramping up development on the Condo peer 2 peer system. This system powers the condo lobby doors and connects all condo chat with corresponding lobby chat. We've gotten the groundwork done and it works pretty well on Windows dedicated servers. However, it does not currently function on Linux dedicated servers. We're actively looking into this issue and we hope to further development of this powerful feature.

GMT to Tower Unite Transfer
The GMT to Tower Unite transfer system is ready for your use. You can perform the transfer in-game or out of game (through http://www.gmtower.org). The transfer is an opt-in feature for our most dedicated GMod Tower players. Transferring will not erase your Tower Unite progress.

To those who have lost their condo at some point, we are sorry to say that we cannot bring them back for this transfer. We also have noticed certain items missing that we also cannot bring back for this transfer. Plates and VIP Baskets will be given out at a later date and are unrelated to this transfer program.

Changes:
Updated to Unreal Engine 4.11. Note: There may be new bugs due to the change over.
Added Indiegogo backer digital rewards (custom rewards are still being worked on)
Added Indiegogo backer tag to the scoreboard player list
Added new Condo building block items (22 items)
Added 34 new items: DVD Case (canvas support), Mouse, Pergola, Coffee Pot, Coaster, Toaster, Notebook (writable), Sandbox, Wooden Bar Table, Wooden Bar Stool, Desk Chair, Executive Desk Chair, Grill, Shrine (canvas support), Mouse Pad, Trophy Case, Paper Towel Holder, TV Remote, Die (dice), Hearticles, Star Particles, Pixel Particles, Rainbow Star Particles, Flare Particles, Macaroni Particles, Console Table, Bar Counter, Desk Stationary Set, Hammock, Shower Head, Paper Wall, and Customizable Stairs
Added orientation arrows for moving inventory items
Added colorable color swatch saver (you can save colors to apply to other colorable items)
