It is **work-in-progress**, so up-to-date compiled builds for all platforms are not yet available. GitHub Actions will likely be set up to provide compiled builds in the future.
However, a manually compiled client build (5/09/2023) is available [here](https://files.catbox.moe/bpq211.7z). Extract it to a new `win_opensb` folder in your Starbound installation, adjacent to the win32 & win64 folders.
If you do decide to compile it anyways, you must also make sure it loads the game assets in `/assets/opensb/`.
Changes:
* You can now make .patch files that are just merged in. That's why the patch files in here are unusually simple.
* Some Lua functions like getters and setters for player identity values, but not every function from [StarExtensions](https://github.com/StarExtensions/StarExtensions) has been ported yet.
* Experimental changes to the storage of directives in memory to greatly reduce their impact on frametimes
* Works well when extremely long directives are used for "vanilla multiplayer-compatible" creations, like [generated clothing](https://silverfeelin.github.io/Starbound-NgOutfitGenerator/).
* Client-side tile placement prediction (rewrite from StarExtensions)
* You can also resize the placement area of tiles on the fly.
* Support for placing foreground tiles with a custom collision type (rewrite from StarExtensions, requires OpenSB server)
* Additionally, objects can be placed under non-solid foreground tiles.
