Dear Stormworkers,
This week you can now deliver important cargo from the air!
We have added a vehicle parachute block, allowing you to deploy a parachute, to gently lower cargo to the ground, help slow your aircraft on the runway, or provide propulsion in high winds!
We have also added a sliding track and track gripper, so you can connect vehicles together in a way where they can move in 1 direction.
We are really looking forward to see what uses players find for these new components, but we think they could be very versatile and allow for many new really cool ideas.
We are still some way off from releasing the next major update, but we want to tell you about our plans for it soon, so keep an eye out here.
Much Love <3
