Cargo Objective Revamp (Community Suggestion)
We weren't happy with the way the objective in Kingman felt. It just made your vehicle slower and didn't give you any interesting choices. We loved one of the suggestions from our discord and have implemented it in this patch. Now if you go through Kingman you will unlock the cargo panel, then it is up to you how much you want to carry. The more you carry the more money you earn. Also it works like a normal panel so eventually you might unlock it permanently.
General Changes
- Blueprint mode warnings are now more clever. For example, if you can generate electricity with a turbine it won't suggest you build solar panels.
- Added some hooks which allow us to decide if panels can be built in leg or not. For example, the cargo containers can only be built in blueprint mode.
- Added electricity meters to every electric panel.
Bug Fixes
- Fixed a crash which occurred when trying to build new wheels in leg. (introduced in last patch)
- Fixed bug whereby the sails tutorial never completed.
