Release: 0.5.0

[officialMECH]

This minor update primarily consists of maintenance updates and quality-of-life improvements, alongside some smaller feature additions.

Changesets

• UI Maintenance #41
• Color Boost Events #42
• Free Obstacle Placement #43

Noteworthy Changes

• A standalone map converter has been integrated, where map conversions across formats may be performed independently of the editor.
• The Details page has been redesigned to provide better clarity and accomodation for new features:
  • New support is available for adding, removing, and modifying vanilla color scheme overrides.
  • Certain fields now use a combobox for more intuitive support for creating new entries.
  • Each beatmap card now displays stats for half-jump duration, jump distance, and reaction time.
• Basic transition events are fully supported in-editor, including color/brightness interpolation for visualization and background boxes.
• More improvements and fixes have been made for basic event tracks:
  • Adjustments for value tracks have been made to clamp values to their supported ranges (if and when they pertain).
  • Certain environments will now feature more intuitive ordering for basic tracks.
  • All mirrorable tracks are now color-coded for better intuition on which tracks are symmetrical with each other.
  • Track visibility filters have been added to show/hide event tracks.
• The list of files displayed for the File Upload will now show integrated previews for audio and image files.
• Uploading a cover art file will now crop the aspect ratio to a square automatically if it was not already square.
• Adding a song with a duplicate ID will now prompt the user to supply a manual override.
  • This won't work in web environments that lack support for window.prompt.
    When this is the case (or if the prompt is cancelled), it will append a random string to the end of the resolved identifier for uniqueness.
• The beat markers will now adjust their spacing based on the current "Snap to" value.
• The current beat and playback state will now be preserved when using the difficulty switcher.
• The Preview view will now display accurate inline rotations for color note (aka windows).
• The bloom effect on the light material has been re-tuned for better accuracy to the color scheme.
• Laser rotations will now seed their rotation pivots based on the event time rather than the event value.
• Added a more procedural algorithm for bookmark color resolution.

Notable Bugfixes

• Fixed many data integrity regressions with map files, including custom color handling and preserving unsupported contents.
• When exporting to v2, the Audio Data file will always be exported as as BPMInfo.dat for proper backwards compatibility.
• Bookmarks should no longer be misaligned when using editor offset.
• The derived color scheme for beatmap entities will now supply a proper fallback when using an unsupported environment.
• The "Paste Selection" button will no longer be disabled when data has been stored onto the clipboard.
• The Undo/Redo actions will actually start tracking history after all beatmap entities have been loaded.
• The Undo/Redo actions will now jump the cursor to the proper location.
• The beat markers in the editor view now more accurately reflects the total number of beats for the song.
• The playhead will now properly stop ticking when the AudioSample is paused.
• The playback controls will now respect the editor offset for more consistent jump behavior.
