Hi players! We’ve added a new feature to help discover parts of the neuron that are disconnected from the soma. Press K to toggle a new coloring scheme for the neuron traces. Traces which are connected to the soma are light blue. Traces which are disconnected from the soma are magenta (light purple).

Traces don’t have to be directly connected to the soma to count: those with roots near enough the soma are also considered connected.

Try to fill the gaps between disconnected traces in the consensus. The best neuron trace has all traces connected to the soma, so more blue is better!

Hi players, we have released a new feature that allows you to use the Connect-the-Dots tools to connected fragmented parts of the neuron trace. You may have noticed consensus emits disconnected traces, now you have a tool to begin joining them together.

Some of the basic menu options like sound or consensus visibility are now saved across sessions.

Other bug fixes for camera controls and comment visibility were are included.
