Hey Trailmakers!

Trailmakers 1.6 Wings and Weapons and our Expansion, Airborne launched on Steam, PlayStation and Xbox yesterday and we've been overwhelmed by the response. From the bottom of all of our hearts at Flashbulb - thank you!

As always, we've been reading, watching and listening to all of the feedback and reports coming in and we have prepared a small Steam hotfix today to address a couple of issues that we wanted to fix with the newly added Camera Block. Right now this hotfix is only going live on Steam, we are working on a hotfix with the same fixes (and more that will also arrive for Steam) for our Xbox and PlayStation players, but the process there is a little slower, sadly. We'll update on that when we have more concrete info.

Hotfixes

- Fixed an issue with the Camera view quickly switching back and forth when a structure with a camera block attached lost a block.
- Fixed an issue with multiple camera view messages being output when a structure seat was hit.
- Fixed an issue with Camera Block view getting stuck if multiple Camera Blocks were detached at different delay timings.
- Fixed some issues with Camera Blocks being activated by Logic Blocks.

Dear Trailmakers, you are cleared for take-off.

On January 23 we announced Trailmakers: Airborne. Since then we have written updates, streamed, showcased, and you have all been eagerly waiting and asking questions. Well, wait no longer.

This is by far the biggest expansion we have ever done and we hope you will be able to see how much effort we put into bringing something new to the game, you all humble us by playing so passionately since the initial release of Trailmakers.

And here is our thanks to you:

When launching the Airborne campaign you are transported into the Chirpo homeworld, a vast open-world map currently undergoing a devastating invasion by Robot Pirates. It is your job to bring peace to this world while upgrading your vehicle with a variety of new blocks and weapons. Use your upgrades to defeat the increasingly difficult enemies.



Explore the open world map of Trailmakers: Airborne by plane, car, airship (or whatever else your imagination can come up with) and find all the hidden treasures, missions, and blocks from the Skylands to the Ancient Deserts.



To complement the new weapons we have introduced an aiming reticle with adjustable aim assist. Use it with your new miniguns and rocket launchers, as well as the already existing smart guns - or use the bombs bays to take out enemies below you!

Use these new features in team-based multiplayer and have a blast with your friends.



You’ve asked for it for a long time and it’s finally here: Center of Forces visualization will make it easier to troubleshoot your vehicle with clear insight into weight distribution, buoyancy, thrust and more. Another thing often requested by the community is a camera block. Use it to gain a unique perspective from wherever you choose to put it.



We truly believe we have the most creative gaming community in the world and we are bursting with excitement to see what marvelous feats of engineering you will come up with.

Happy Trailmakin’!
