Dear Stormworkers,
It is almost time! Trains and microprocessors are dropping on Wednesday at 5PM UTC.
There is no minor update this week as we are putting the final touches on to the major update.
Here is a reminder of what is coming on Wednesday:
New Locations
The Donkk Island Keys are 5 new islands, connected with road and rail links from the main island all the way to the new purchasable train yard and shipping terminal.
This is the first step in creating our new rail network as we expand the world of Stormworks. We have big plans, and more will be announced after this major update.
Trains
The new train line comes with a new component - train wheels! You can build trains using all of the usual parts and use them on the rail line between the two player bases, both equiped with workbenches on the train tracks.
Build your locomotive engines, cars, shunt your cargo, and use the signals to change tracks.
Microprocessors
You can now build your own logic gates with the new microprocessor component!
Modularize your logic, and share on the workshop with the new logical controller editor. This can be used from replacing a couple of simple gates to building an "autopilot" block, to... well... we don't know what is possible and are looking forward to you showing us!
This includes the new composite connection that can carry 32 numbers and 32 on/off signals along a single logic link for inter-microprocessor communication.
This minaturization of logic is going to make loads of new features that we have planned make much more sense and more info will follow after this major update.
We are really excited to share this update with you next week, and thank you for all the support, feedback and creations you have shared with us.
Much love <3
The Stormworks Developers
