Update 0.78 Alpha - Public servers and new modules
Public servers! Yay!
It was quite a hard task to understand how to work with Steam API. And we still did not understand it completely. For example, you still can't join a friend's game by pressing "Join game" in Steam chat. However, we managed to figure out how to create global servers using Steam master server and now you can pick server from the list and join it! 4 new modules and new starting ship.
New modules makes maneuvering engines a bit smaller and new cargo container have additional mounting points, as result, starting ship now is much more customizable. Blue containers indicates possible mounting points.
New small engines with nice looking blue effect.
Actually, it is not very realistically, if each engine will hve its own visual effect, because in real world, the color and the type of the flame depends mostly on type of fuel and oxidiser. But we decided to make this simplification in order to achive more diverse visual effect Newly added ingame debug console
New radar icons
Pistons and rotors in multiplayer works surprisingly well!
