Hey there, Electricians! ⚡
We all know what an electrician does, but the real question is how they do it. More specifically—what you’ll be able to do in the game and how you’ll interact with the tools of the trade. Today, we’re diving into the nuts and bolts of the new UI elements in Electrician Simulator VR.
Check it Out
Your mission details are going old-school... sort of. You’ll keep all your tasks and notes on a clipboard that’s always by your side. Need to check what’s next? Just reach for it—it’s like unfastening it from your belt, and boom, your trusty clipboard is in your hands.
But remember, any good electrician knows better than to read while fixing. Keep your focus on one thing at a time, or you might short-circuit your progress!
Tick Tock, Watch the Clock
Your smartwatch is leveling up! It’ll still show real-world time (because, hey, someone’s gotta keep track), but now it’s packed with extras.
You’ll get calls from customers right on your wrist, complete with their photo and name. It’ll even monitor your pulse, so if something shocking happens—like, say, a little zap—you’ll know right away. Fingers crossed it never has to send that alert!
While you won’t be able to interact with the watch directly, it’ll always keep you updated on mission progress and other critical info.
What’s in Store?
The in-game store has had a bit of a makeover! Forget about physical locations—now the store is fully virtual, and you can pull it up anytime. Just press the menu button on your left controller, and you’re good to go.
Need to buy tools or parts? Point and click with the laser and grab what you need. Selling items? Just place the item in the store’s UI, and it’s gone.
Worried about blowing your budget? Don’t sweat it. During missions, the store will show you how much cash you’ve got for the job. And back at the workshop, you’ll see your total account balance—hopefully growing as you nail those commissions!
Get a Grip
Your hands are about to become your best friends. When interacting with objects, you’ll see helpful prompts like, “Cables not connected” or hints about what actions are available. You’ll also know which objects are grabbable, as their names will pop up when you hover over them.
These on-hand messages are here to keep the gameplay flowing smoothly and ensure you always know what’s at your fingertips—literally!
That’s all for now, Electricians! We hope these updates have sparked your interest and amped up your excitement for Electrician Simulator VR. Keep your tools ready and your anticipation high—there’s more to come soon. See you in the next devlog!
