    I don't want to ruin the hype here but all this stuff is extremely refreshing, that website looks much cooler and does a good job at making the soft-body physics system understandable for everyone. The interactive stuff makes it so much better. The artwork is great and honestly I can't find a better word than refreshing again. Hopefully this will draw more people to the forums/website whenever it gets properly released :D

    Most likely as it has composite headlights instead of the old sealed beams.

    Not yet. What do you want to do, what can we document?

    Level sounds? Vehicle sounds?

    I really like the new documentation system. It’s always helpful when a game has an official, organized wiki:)

    Is there a backup page of the previous Lua API?
    I was planning on making something but the only class I see is Engine, can't find any of the others.

    Anyways, absolutely love the new website design

    I'm really sorry, but this new docs isnt very good. Now, let me reiterate, I actually do really like the visual redesign! But the new docs is literally useless, I can't find any documentation on the userdata/classes at all? That was literally the entire purpose for said docs, to me it really just looks like you guys deleted everything. I'm sorry for the harsh words, but genuinely I don't understand what the reasoning behind removing all of the old content was??? Is there a backup of it anywhere? I want to work on a project but I can't because you guys removed all the documentation on the C++ side of things

    On a much lighter node, once all of the old content is back instead of being thrown into the void, the new docs looks really good!

    If you are, a thread for suggestions would be nice. I have at least 3 things that could use fixing on this website.
