Liftoff: Micro Drones (tuxdb.com)

We are super excited to release the first Milestone update for Liftoff: Micro Drones, pushing the game a massive step closer to its V1 release. This is a big one: optimisations, simulation update, Sealand, leaderboards, replays and more!

Changelist

Added: Sealand day and night environments. Each environment has interactive elements, 3 new race tracks, a hover drone track and 3 balloon collection courses.
Added: The replay feature. From the main menu, in the 'Tools' section, you can now watch saved recordings of your flights.
Added: Leaderboards! Watch your best race and lap times in the leaderboards menu. Cycle through on a monthly bases, or view all-time best scores. The menu is accessible through the main menu, in the 'Tools' section.
Updated: Optimised drone stat calculations, this should result in more authentic simulation.
Updated: Made more motors selectable in workbench, allowing for more configurations.
Updated: Unity game engine. This should give an overall increase in performance.
Updated: All multiplayer menus have been merged into a single menu, saving a few loading screens.
Updated: The multiplayer score screen now shows leaderboard times as well, below to your personal best times.
Updated: The multiplayer room creation menu now shows the environment being selected.
Updated: Set your desired flight mode and assists directly from within the flight controller menu.
Updated: The current flight mode and active flight assists are now shown prior to arming the drone, allowing you to better pre-select the desired flight mode before taking off.
Updated: Larger player avatars are now downloaded, so that they look crisp.
Updated: Optimized the drone HUD to be less CPU intensive.
Updated: Optimized several content files to be more loading efficient. This reduces installation size (-3GB) and decreases loading times when flying on a track.
Fixed: The flight mode and active flight assists are now saved between drone resets. This prevents from having to reselect the right flight mode again after each drone reset.
Fixed: Many minor bug fixes.
Fixed: On macOS only - shader issue with the plant in the San Lipo Drive environments not rendering its leaves correctly.

Welcome to the Principality of Sealand

Have you ever power looped a whole nation? [previewyoutube=9zf8LJzAcQA;full]https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9zf8LJzAcQA[/previewyoutube] With official government permission from the Principality of Sealand, we are excited to see you all discover the coolest micro nations in the North Sea! Sealand brings a complete new experience to Liftoff simulators: not only do you have to consider that drones don't swim and seagulls don't chill, at night you also have to deal with some stormy weather. Nothing a pro pilot can't handle ;) E Mare Libertas!

Soon: Sawdust Inc.

Last month we teased a new level called Sawdust Inc, and we are excited to reveal another section of this level. Sawdust inc is going to feature the bigger indoor Liftoff: Micro Drones environment to date, with 4 discting areas, from a wood workshop and a warehouse, to offices and a furniture showroom. Here's another screenshot of this exciting new level that will become available in Liftoff: Micro Drones in the near future.
