Back From the Holidays: Status Update!


After a quite short vacation in one of the coldest places on Earth we're back into full development mode for 1.12.

The heat and fire sub-system is now fully coupled with the rest of the physics - bombs generate heat and interact with it, electrical elements generate heat and interact with it, and melting is basically done. So we'll be spending the next couple of weeks working on optimizations - flames, heat propagation, and combustion require a lot of computing resources and we're now working hard to squeeze as many FPS' as possible out of the beta codebase!

At this moment we are also busy collecting ships from all the users that have kindly agreed to let us release them with 1.12, so expect quite a few more hulls and boats with the next release!

And as usual, we conclude this post with a list of the newest Floating Sandbox youtube videos:
