Here's what's new!

• New Gizmos system - gizmos make stuff move in custom rooms!
  

• You'll find Gizmos in the Maker Pen. Gizmos work with circuits to make various kinds of programmable motion possible - everything from simple windmills to quite complex mechanisms are possible! We can't wait to see what you can come up with, and we plan to extend this system considerably so please let us know what you wish was possible with gizmos! I'll tell you one thing that's possible - horrifying animatronic clown faces:
  

You're welcome.

• Gizmos are part of the Circuit system, so if you can't find them when building a room, go into This Room --> Setup and make sure "Circuit Visibility" is set correctly. Gizmos require at least one chip to turn them on and tell them how fast to move.
  

We're starting with three gizmo types:

• Rotate gizmo - connect this to any object to make it spin!
  
• Piston gizmo - connect this to any object to make it move in a straight line. Send it a negative speed to move backwards.
  
• LookAt gizmo - this gizmo will continually track a tagged object.
  

Speaking of which...

• new Tags system. You can now add #tags to any object in a custom room. This lets you do some really fun stuff! Track tagged objects with the LookAt gizmo, assign tagged items to players with respawn points, and use them to filter object triggers (so a trigger will only send a signal when an object with that tag is detected). Again, this is a system we plan to extend over time so let us know what other kinds of things you'd like to do with the tag system!
  

We're really excited to see what you can make with gizmos and tags! We've had a lot of fun playing with them during testing, and we hope you have fun too!

There's plenty more:

• New Quick Snap camera gesture - hold up both hands like you're telling me how big of a fish you caught. Then pull both triggers! This will summon your camera and immediately take a photo.
  

• There's also a new shortcut in the Expresso menu - press and hold the menu button, then move Down, Down.
  

• We optimized our streamer cameras so they have less impact on the in-game framerate.
  
• We added a new streamer cam view - 3rd person (face). This camera will always point at the front of your avatar.
  
• We updated our new user experience to introduce players to some features we introduced recently.
  
• We added a diagnostics screen for PSVR which displays the tracking quality of the headset and Move controllers. (Settings --> Advanced --> Diagnostics)
  
• You can now push sandbox buttons using a short (~1m) laser pointer
  

And lots of bug fixes:

• Rec Royale - addressed issues where players could hide inside rocks.
  
• Rec Royale - fixed Frontier Pass bug where some weird stuff could happen when you hit level 50.
  
• Rec Royale - tweaked sprinting on Vive to make it easier and more reliable.
  
• Laser Tag - fixed missing respawn countdown
  
• Custom Rooms - fixed trigger volume behavior when snapping is enabled.
  
• Custom Rooms - fixed an issue where Holotar and Sampler data could get lots when you cloned a room (sorry about that :-/)
  
• Circuits - circuit visibility now updates correctly when someone is promoted to host while already in the room.
  
• Circuits - fixed RNG chip desyncing for remote players, fixed RNG chip getting stuck on a number after some length of time
  
• Circuits - fixed cloning of chips not working for remote players
  
• Circuits - fixed Player Hit chip not reporting damage
  
• Fixed a bunch of bugs related to reloaders on Laser Tag guns (there are more, there's always more...)
  
• We fixed a bug in how sticky objects connected that would cause those objects to incorrectly collide with each other. While this fixes issues users were having in certain custom ^rooms, it also removes the exploit where players were using strategically placed darts to generate continuous rotation. We hope that the new Gizmo system is an acceptable substitute for the exploit! Let us know if you disagree.
  

OK! Thanks for playing Rec Room! As always, don't hesitate to give us your feedback
