Or you're kidding us? Because 1 April

where did you read that hylis allowed to share? there's NDA o:

but yeah, if he shared it anyway, I can say that there are so many new tactics with these things! like, you can pick up some boxes, make a fortress, and shoot beam from there :p totally fun. also breaking glass looks badass.

some of dem is true acually :>

Heya ! I'll maybe one of you guys (beta testers). And I have some requests about new updates that could be possible and very great for the game.

About mapping :
Need a auto-save ! Please ! That's not the first time I quit without save my map. I would a setting with enable/diseable auto-saving, and how often I would like the game make this auto-save. (1min/10mins etc ...)
Be carefull ! I would another file than my current map for the auto-save. It's only few octets
And when I edit my map at the next time, the game ask to me "You didn't save the map after an auto-save, would you like to load it ?" Yes/No ^^

About Private Messages :
Sometimes, I quit the game too fast and I don't see that I have received some messages. It's quite annoying when you think "Oh noo, what did he say ?". So when I quit the game without have seen the last messages, I would like a message like "You didn't read your last messages, do you want to quit anyway ?"

I hope these two requests will be read, that's the minimum I ask ^^

+1, but probably move this to suggestions thread.

I see that I am not the only one who wants the prealpha blocks back
