Weekly Update #15 (v0.1.15.1) - New Menu Lighting & Built-In Groups Reorder

Hey everyone,

This week’s update is a smaller one, focused mainly on quality-of-life improvements. While the changes may be subtle, they’re all things we believe meaningfully improve the overall experience. We hope you enjoy them!

New Lighting for In-Menu Kart & Character

We’ve wanted to refresh the lighting for your kart and character preview in the Main Menu for quite a while. This week, it finally landed! The new, more realistic lighting gives your setup a much nicer presentation, and we’re pretty happy with how it turned out.

Reordering Built-In Groups

Last week we introduced the ability to reorder your custom race track groups in the Main Menu. This week, we’ve expanded that feature to built-in groups as well! Now you can fully customize the order of all your groups and organize your favorite tracks exactly how you like.

Other Improvements

• Adjusted “Create New” group behavior - it now automatically enters edit mode

• Adjusted “Customize” random button - it now automatically approves the selected item

• Updated preset rotation - it now rotates at a constant speed

• Fixed preset rotation for presets that include hidden elements

• Added exhaust particles to karts in preset customization

• Updated to latest Unity version

Extra Improvements

• Added a dialog that allows you to disable Time Trial leaderboard record uploads when a race track is detected as Work in Progress by the track creator (via the publish directory)

• Duels - Added support for custom tracks, including a custom track pop-up dialog. This feature still needs more testing, but you should now be able to play against other players on custom tracks
