Notes
This week's release introduces a new Instance signals feature! If you've used the System Signal action, this brings the same feature but working on a per-instance basis. Unlike custom actions, this allows for handling signals in multiple places, using a dynamic string for a signal, or using the 'Wait for signal' action (which with instances waits for all picked instances to signal). This provides a more dynamic and flexible approach to handling custom logic per-instance.
Other changes include improvements for IME when entering expressions, allowing translation of some previously untranslated content, and a couple of bug fixes. We're now going to focus on working towards a stable release in the next few weeks - hopefully by the end of September - so as usual the next releases until then will have changes mostly just for bug fixes and reliability. Happy testing!
