Release 1.1.1

New APIs for JavaScript and TypeScript to support bug fixing and Object3D.clone() to unlock new use cases.

Destruction Safety 

Previously it was possible, but prohibited, to access destroyed objects. If you did so anyway, you would encounter a wide range of errors. With this version we provide clear errors when accessing destroyed Object3D. , Texture. and custom Component. instances, when switched on:

1engine.erasePrototypeOnDestroy = true;
2
3const obj = engine.scene.addObject();
4obj.name = 'iamalive';
5console.log(obj.name); // Prints 'iamalive'
6
7obj.destroy();
8console.log(obj.name); // Throws an error

This behavior is going to be enabled by default starting with 1.2.0.
