# Editor features

## Triggers
- **NEW: is_multiplayer** condition:
	- Takes `%bool` as arg, compares to whether the game is in multiplayer mode (i.e. was made in a lobby instead of through the singleplayer menu)
- **disable_units** action:
	- Now takes `%bool_hidden` as a final optional arg.
	- When unset, unit buttons are disabled (greyed out) as usual.
	- When set to `true`, unit buttons are instead hidden from the command card.
- **set_unit_behavior** action:
	- Now accepts `infrastructure_burrow` for `%behavior` arg, making AI units ignore the "don't burrow near allied structures" rule.
- **NEW: set_burrow_infrastructure_override** action:
	- Allows AI players to ignore the "don't burrow near allied structures" rule.
- **NEW: set_ally_alert_blacklist** action:
	- Allows "ally under attack" alerts to be ignored for specific players.

## Bugfixes
- **Stability:**
	- Resolved rare Nydus-related crash (r. Concealed Organic)
- **Gameplay:**
	- Fixed **Histrion** not having energy (r. jakulangski)
	- Fixed bad animations for **Hotshot**, including attack animation (r. lolrsk8s)
- **Audiovisuals:**
	- Custom alerts, such as "ally under attack" alerts, should now respect the "mute non-trigger sounds" trigger action (used during e.g. campaign dialogue)
