Xonotic 0.7 Has New Compiler, Game Features

It's been over one year of waiting for Xonotic 1.0. The popular open-source game's 1.0 release still isn't here, but Xonotic 0.7 has been released this weekend. Xonotic 0.7 brings forward a lot of in-game updates, including a new QuakeC compiler.

Xonotic 0.7 features "massive" updates to the game modes, animation blending improvements, more competitive features, mapping updates, better handling of in-game messages, and more.

The all-new QuakeC compiler is gmpqcc and provides faster, more optimized program files, and other new features.

More details on the Xonotic 0.7 game release can be found at Xonotic.org. The Xonotic project also says that going forward they will have a more frequent and consistent release pattern.
