Golaem Crowd 3.5.2 (2015/01/30)
New Features
Simulation Cache Proxy node to interactively playback cached simulations (timeline scrubbing) (replace the Simulation Cache Editor)
Simulation Cache Toggle Icon in the Crowd Shelf to switch display between Simulation and Cache Playblack in the viewport
New Channel System to query animation, navigation and behaviors attributes (such as bone position, footprint, target...)
Terrain Locator can add Physicalized Entities to the Ground Adaptation of Entities (aka walk on dead bodies)
Sticky Note utility in the Behavior Editor to add notes and annotations in Behavior Graphs
Anchor Operator in the Behavior Editor to organize Graphs design

- Pre-Emit & Post-Emit MEL/Python Callbacks in the Population Tool Locator
- SyncMotion Behavior now works with animated objects
Bug Fixes
