Dear Stormworkers,
This week's minor update adds several frequently requested logic components, as well as more bug fixes.
A new trigonometry component lets you make use of sin, cos, tan and their inverse functions, and the new exponent component can be used for taking square roots.
We've also added 2 sizes of keypad components - these input devices will display a text box where you can enter numbers to send to your vehicle's logic. The larger keypad also has a shortcut button to automatically input the map coordinates of your current waypoint! This should allow you to make much more compact autopilot systems, as well as being a great tool for testing how different values affect your circuits in real-time.
Patch notes are below with a full list of the changes included in this update.
Thanks to all the community members who are continuing to give us feedback on Discord, the Steam discussions and our issue tracker. We're currently putting the finishing touches on Major Update 2 which includes some of your most highly requested features! We can't wait to share it with you, and will be announcing more details soon.
Have a great weekend <3
The Stormworks Developers
