Hey Pioneers,
Get ready to set sail and create your own exciting new environments.
Richard has been hard at work on a new tool for Sailaway that will allow players to help refine the details of the Sailaway world. He wrote about some of these challenges in more detail here: https://www.sailawaysimulator.com/2018/05/04/world-editing/
Today’s update marks the initial release of this World Editing tool which can be downloaded by any current Sailaway owner via this page: https://store.steampowered.com/app/870640/Sailaway__World_Editor/
This tool not only allows players to edit height map data for the game but it also allows new models to be added to the world for players to enjoy. Richard has written a blog about how the tool works here: https://www.sailawaysimulator.com/2018/09/21/adding-a-lighthouse/

Please note: All edits you make to the Sailaway world affect all players, if accounts are found to be abusing this editor they will be blocked from using it in the future.
