Development Status #105



[h2]Dear Mechanics,[/h2]

Welcome to our one hundred and fifth development status update.

[h3]Maus work in progress[/h3]



As you might know, we are working intensively on the Maus right now. The engine compartment has been finished. We are right now focusing on improving interior modules of Hull Interior and Turret Interior with more details and elements to renovate. The process of the tank prefab configuration is in progress, elements are renamed to the appropriate nomenclature. We must admit that we faced more work on Maus than expected.



We have prepared some work in progress materials for you. It is footage from workshop renovation and a few screenshots from the latest development builds.

[h2]Ammunition for big Maus[/h2]

For Maus, we have created new shells with proper caliber for big KwK 44 gun. Two types PzGr. 43 an APHECBC and Sprgr.L/5 a HE type of projectile.



[h2]MG-34[/h2]

We have also worked on adding new metal objects of MG-34 as well as versions mounted inside tanks. This version differs mostly from not having a stock and being supplied from “Gurtsack”.









[h2]Framerate Option[/h2]

We have added more options to control the framerate, as we had a lot of reports that our game caused too big an impact on players' GPUs. Now the options are more open to configuration and we want to hear if it helped or not.

[h2]Drone Waypoints[/h2]

As suggested we took our time and we have added the waypoint patterns. A player is now able to save the pattern of flight to a file and then load it using the Extraction Panel Menu when the drone controls are on. Players can also start and stop the drone at any point. We have received a few suggestions to add a special upgrade that allows for faster drone speed movement and a bigger area of search. If you have more suggestions for drones please share them with us.
