[h2]Notes[/h2]
Attaching ropes to objects that were loaded in the wrong order may require removing/reattaching said rope and resaving the game because the save / load order of structures has changed.

Weapons on aircraft will now have better dimensioning returns with regard to the number of weapons and fuel usage. Adding many weapons will use lots of fuel and having a very small aircraft with lots of guns and little fuel will no longer be viable.

Going full throttle against an anchor will no longer produce an elastic pull back for smaller ships. Because large ships can be massive and heavy, the chains will now become physically tight (perhaps more realistically) to prevent overpowering physics from extremely large ships.

The StandardKeel part is a buoyant part, technically any buoyant part can be used as a keel in the correct shape.

[h2]Summary[/h2]
This build marks a big milestone for the completion of the game, the version is now 0.8 where 1.0 marks the completion of early access. Following the original plan laid out for early access this build will also marks the first price increase given the enormous amount of content now in the game and the progression towards 1.0. One of the big things in this build is the addition of destruction mechanics, which means all vessels can now be destroyed! Naturally this requires 4 new weapon parts. The game now has 12 islands and over 100 parts. There are various other changes included in 0.8, you can see the most recent below and a complete list of changes from version 0.7 here:

[h2]Notes[/h2]
Due to changes in the way damage is saved, any damaged vessels will load as repaired until saved again with new damage. This may result in things like sunken ships suddenly becoming repaired and rapidly rising out of the sea, vessels like that it may be best to cleanup and redeploy.

Now that parts can be repaired separately, they need to be repaired directly instead of just anywhere to repair everything. However because parts can be physically unreachable and damaged, repairing anywhere will still repair everything, just at a much slower rate.

Sandbox mode is now the default option when creating the game in order to encourage learning the mechanics before attempting campaign which can be challenging without knowing how to play. It is also important to view the campaign guide / basic gameplay guides.

Sailboats now move much slower with low levels of wind to better simulate reality. Generally speaking sailboats can go really fast with higher amounts of wind, but should start to become uncontrollable (depending on the size of the vessel) with wind speeds in excess of 30 knots or so and result in capsizing or destruction if the sail is not stowed.

Aircraft engines will now prevent down shifting when other lower geared engines have a higher throttle setting. This is helpful for things like helicopters which may have a rear rotor that is not geared liked the main rotor which means that as the engine slows down it may provide less thrust then you would expect/want if you were just at max throttle due to the different gearing. The result of this will be better control/yaw control when landing and throttling down aircrafts using engines that have different gearing for throttle. Previously this may have resulted in a lack of yaw control due to the rear rotor throttling down faster than the main rotor.

1 hour of oxygen real world should get you around 1 min of oxygen in game

[h2]Notes[/h2]
Previously fuel transfers required that a connector be directly attached to a fuel tank, in order to reduce the need to many tiny pipes (which are not required for things like Engines and other fuel consumers) connectors will draw fuel from the attached fuel tank if possible and the least full tank if not attached directly.

[h2]Summary[/h2]
This update contains many new parts and the overhaul of the submarine features. There are some new mechanics available in build mode and many of the existing features have been more polished (SFX, VFX). This update also contains various bug fixes. This build marks the end of a large chunk of planned work, which is exciting because it included a lot of content and that I will get to start work on more destruction stuff next (explosions). There is one more large chunk of work before version 0.8 (which indicates some solid progress towards completion)

[h2]Notes[/h2]

Previously small amounts of damage on large durable vessels (steel) would register as 99.56% (for example) and this would display as 100 on the UI because it does not decern decimals for the sake of real-estate and rounds up. In cases like this the UI will now display 99 until the repairs are complete and hull integrity reaches 100%. The only downside to this is that small dings on very large vessels (which may take a bit to repair) will have little indication of progress due to being such a small fraction of the vessels hull integrity, but will now be noticeable on the UI. This may have been previously detected visually and repaired even though the UI said "100".

Submarine engine propellers will now damage the Nautikins due to updated colliders that erroneously prevented damage.

There are now over 100 parts in the game.

Change notes listed as "Bow thruster" also apply to stern thrusters

Next / Prev position does not have controller bindings.

Smoke emitters do not have controller bindings.

New build keys do not have controller support.

New build adjustments keys support scale, stretch, and move. They do not support rotation or pivot (Backlog item)

Saving a vessel will now save 2 preview files. The first one is for in game previews which are small for performance reasons and because the preview is small. The larger images will be used in case the vessel is uploaded to the Steam workshop later in order to produce a higher quality default preview image without having to manually edit the preview. If you have a workshop item with a low res preview you can save the vessel again and the high res preview will be used for the next update of the workshop item.

I will upload the submarines from the video to the workshop.

Guides will be updated soon.
