Hi all,
We haven't been keeping the steam discussions updated with our work in progress content the way we have been on discord. I wanted to dump some media along with details on what we have been working on. We started this update not happy with our desktop changes and have done another total rework of desktop interactions. We think this is a much better solution than any of the past desktop interaction methods. Those changes have spiraled into a lot of new content and new features. Some of what we have done in no particular order:
*Multi part carry. Keep dissimilar parts in clumps/piles during disassembly and move them around together. This is a pretty intuitive way to handle small parts. Parts related to a job or a corner of the car end up clustered together.
*Parts bins with local physics simulations for small parts
*Repack able boxes
*Garage furniture. Storage shelves, tire racks, work surfaces, etc. all snapped into a grid system in the garage.
*Customizable garage flooring tiles
*New lift posts, oil drain tank, etc.
*Peg board with hardware, pegbins, tool storage etc.
*New tools. Several types of manual ratchets, combination wrenches
*New hatchback street car. Either in this build or shortly after players will all start with street cars. Exocets and catfish will only exist as kits players build and won't be able to be bought in running condition
*New garage. Players now start in a more modest residential garage located in a small neighborhood
*Jack stands: Players now start with jack stands instead of a lift
Some of the related media. There is a lot more + videos on our discord work in progress channel:
