Lenga Engine 0.4 — Animation Workflow and Inspector Improvements

Lenga Engine 0.4 is a workflow release. The focus here is not a brand-new rendering pipeline or a dramatic rewrite of the runtime. It is the day-to-day authoring experience: making animation setup less fragile, making inspector editing clearer, and cutting down the friction that slows teams down while building scenes.

Lenga Engine 0.4 is a workflow release. The focus here is not a brand-new rendering pipeline or a dramatic rewrite of the runtime. It is the day-to-day authoring experience: making animation setup less fragile, making inspector editing clearer, and cutting down the friction that slows teams down while building scenes.

On the animation side, this release tightens the controller-driven sprite animation workflow. Assigning clips and controllers is more reliable, previewing controller states in the editor is much easier, and a number of rough edges around state switching, renaming, and selection have been cleaned up. It is not a full DCC-style animation suite, but it is a much more usable foundation for sprite clips and animation controllers than earlier builds.

The Inspector received just as much attention. Component cards are easier to scan, path and asset selection behaves more consistently, components can be enabled or disabled directly from the header, and a lot of visual clutter has been removed from common editing paths. In practice that means less fighting the tool and more time spent actually building the scene.

0.4 is the kind of release that makes the engine feel more trustworthy. The best improvements here are not always flashy, but they are the ones you notice after an hour in the editor when things simply feel steadier. If you've used an older build, this is a good version to revisit.
