Hey guys, as IronWolf has grown with features and roles we’ve decided to add a new inventory item to help single players control the submarine during intensive gameplay. The radio control device will be available in a belt inventory slot if you are the only player in the game, you will be able to drive and set the depth of the submarine from any room, enabling you to pull off some of the more advanced maneuvers whilst fully engaging the enemy.

We’ve also revamped the belt inventory system which allows for precision control of multiple inventory items and the slots they occupy on your inventory belt. In IronWolf some of the items are quite large, this makes it difficult to know which slot you are interacting with. To solve this we made it so that when looking at the inventory belt, items will shrink down as you bring them near to a slot and the slot will highlight so you know which one you’re interacting with.

Change Log:

  • Added Single Player Radio Controller inventory item
  • Added 2 new inventory slots onto the belt
  • Items now shrink as they approach an inventory slot
  • Inventory slots highlight for interactivity cues
  • When roomscale locomotion is disabled, we no longer rotate the player as they travel between rooms.
  • Added and improved volume control sliders for VOIP and main audio
  • Added text cue indicating how many players are recommended for selected assist options
  • Assist options now persist between games
  • Snorkel will now replenish breathable oxygen for the crew
  • Added rear fins to submarine map icon as an orientation cue
  • Added protanopia colour blind mode to the settings menu as this form of colour blindness is severely affected by the red lighting mode.
  • Fix delay on hand closing animation
  • Fix colour of inventory items on the surface.
  • Fixed a rare bug where stowed inventory items could re-appear in your hand.
