⚽ Nicktale Soccer — v1.1.0 Changelog

Welcome to Nicktale Soccer v1.1.0! This major update brings true 3D ball rolling physics, interactive match controls, brand new pitch sizes for large multiplayer matches, audio comfort settings, and full bilingual support.

🌟 What's New in v1.1.0

⚽ Realistic 3D Ball Physics & Multi-Directional Rolling

• Full 3D Ball Rotation: Fixed the issue where the soccer ball only rotated along a single fixed axis. The ball now rolls realistically in the exact direction of travel across all angles in full 3D.
• Accurate Ground & Air Dynamics: Ball spin now seamlessly adapts whether rolling on grass, bouncing off goalposts, curving, or flying through the air.

🛑 Post-Goal Physics & Double-Goal Prevention

• Velocity Reset: Fixed a bug where strong shots would retain their velocity when teleporting to the center circle, causing unintentional instant double goals.
• Kickoff Freeze Period: When a goal is scored, the ball immediately stops all momentum (Vec3.ZERO) and remains stationed at the midfield center spot during the celebration cooldown before kickoff begins. Premature hits during the goal celebration are now ignored.

🔢 Interactive Scoreboard Control Panel (GUI)

• New Right-Click Menu: Right-clicking the Electronic Scoreboard now opens a dedicated in-game Control Panel (ScoreboardScreen).
• Match Reset (0 - 0): Added a one-click button to reset scores to 0-0 and restore the match timer.
• Auto-Reset on Kickoff: Starting a new match after the previous one has concluded will now automatically reset the scores and timer to avoid getting stuck at 00:00.
• Match Start / Pause: Easily control the match clock directly from the screen.
• Adjustable Match Duration: Easily cycle match times (3 min, 5 min, 10 min, 15 min).

🔊 Audio Adjustments & Mute Toggle

• Default Goal Volume Lowered to 50%: Reduced the default volume of the goal celebration sound so it's pleasant and balanced instead of overpowering.
• Goal Sound Mute Option: Added an in-menu toggle to mute or unmute the "GOOOOOL!" sound effect while keeping visual celebrations, particles, and score tracking intact.
• Volume Step Selector: Easily cycle goal celebration volume directly from the scoreboard menu (25%, 50%, 75%, 100%).
