February Status Update


Another long period of frantic coding, and another bunch of new features for the upcoming 1.14 release!

The first big news for 1.14 is the presence of new, interactive electrical elements. So far we've added switches and smoke emitters, which are controllable via the new "electrical panel":

In the next weeks we'll be adding a ton of additional elements, making for very articulated panels!

The second news is that we've re-worked explosions and flames, have a look:

Flames are now directional, they follow the velocity of their burning particle, making for nice fireballs zipping in the sky.

Finally, Floating Sandbox now understands air buoyancy (and its accompanying thermal expansion!), and the new Hydrogen material puts it to the test by making blimps float in the sky. Be careful with Hydrogen though, it's very explosive!!!

This said, we'll be ducking down again for a few more weeks of coding - in the meantime enjoy the latest Floating Sandbox videos!

Regular exercise is key for healthy wings.

Let me introduce you to the new Mech line: Gendai Spec. Those are Mech that specializes in surprise attacks, covered operations, and stealth. They are equipped with melee weapons but one of Gendai's frames supports sniper rifles.
