Dear Stormworkers,
This week's minor update includes new spotlight and window parts for small vehicles!
After last week's wheel update we have seen some fantastic cars, jeeps and trucks being built by the community. This week we have added two small spotlights that fit a lot better with the scale of these land vehicles, making it much easier to build functional headlights and compact search lights. A full-block variant and a smaller mounted variant are available.
We have also added 3 more window components that should make it easier to fill gaps on small vehicles where the existing window components are too large.
This update also includes many fixes, the full list of which can be found in the changelog below.
Much Love <3
The Stormworks Developers
