Airmen 1.15.6: Steering Wheel Indicators

This week's update replaces the old pressure gauge and weapon group indicators on the steering wheel. The new indicators bring the gauge's helpful information closer together and improve the clarity of the pressure gauge specifically.

A round of persistent bugs have also been fixed, most importantly the cause of cargo appearing without a name. For players with motion blur enabled projectile explosions should now appear correctly instead of smearing across the screen.

Join us on Discord for public playtests Friday at 12pm ET, Saturday at 3pm ET, and Monday at 7pm ET.

1.15.6

Major Features

  • Updated the steering wheel pressure gauge and weapon group indicators.
  • Added a submersible rod and armored balloon rod.

Minor Features

  • Removed the perquisites of the mining introduction quest so information about mining every resource is immediately visible.
  • Increased the parcel drop rate of all resources when mined by 50% so resources are more dense.
  • Updated the extraction beacon to show the extraction symbol from the map.

Bug Fixes

  • Fixed parcels that existed before joining a lobby sometimes appearing unnamed or not appearing at all.
  • Fixed projectile explosions blurring incorrectly when they hit a ship while motion blur is enabled.
  • Fixed parcel resyncing creating unnamed resources when they are added to cargo pads.
  • Fixed a bug that caused parts to be tilted when placed.
  • Fixed some rocks on Horizon missing collisions.
