Hello respected community!
It has been a loooong time, full of issues to solve, unclear plan estimates and I am so glad we can move further and finally release the Mashinky's map Editor!
Changelog is quite long, so I need to prepare it for you, but in few days, I will release editor update with these main changes:
- Advanced map editor (with GPU brushes, industry / towns planning etc)
- Support for loading / saving height, vegetation or humidity maps
- First set of hand made maps
- 7000+ real towns locations and size for automatic placement
- Many fixes and improvements
- New steam engine "Elishka"
It was not an easy task and I want to appologise to all of you for such delay. What started as a "hey, lets add possibility to load heightmap" to something rather complex requiring to rewrite some game parts (generating towns, industries, changing map size, dynamic ownership of map items etc.).
I've learned a lot and I will do my best to meantime ensure some content updates coming.
Full steam ahead!
I've also decided to focus on Mashinky and I will work on this game on full time starting next month! This should speed up the development radically. We can also switch back to content updates soon!
Thanks for all your patience, looking forward to see your creativity in the Editor and have a nice weekend!
Best,
Jan
