Tower Unite's Latest Update Improves Netcode; Introduces Tons of New Features

Summer Cleanup Update PixelTail Games

Tower Unite is a simulation game where you manage a virtual theme park filled with fun activities that you can play with your friends. It got a patch recently that delivered a myriad of new features and improvements.

In the Summer Cleanup update, you can now put your own custom spawn points in your condo. This is one of the most highly requested features in Tower Unite as it allows you to set where players will spawn when visiting your humble abode. If you set up more than one custom spawn point, those who visit your condo will randomly spawn at each of them.

Another noteworthy improvement is that you can now have multiple cameras and game consoles connected to media players via a channel system. Just like a TV, you can switch between channels by using the remote or the IO buttons found in your condo.

The developers have also made some netcode optimizations to reduce network-related ping delay when doing certain actions, such as flying with jetpacks, performing rocket jumps, and using teleporters, among others.
