    in todays patch.

    fixed inertia dampeners not working on planet

    i didn't even know that was a bug. i noticed but i just figured my ships were to heavy or pitch/roll was off for why they were slowing falling to the ground (not enough to do damage).

    haven't even launched the game in awhile or really paid attention to patches. been busy with school. But I saw a tank on the workshop and thought "that would be fun if we did a battletanks think in space engineers". wouldn't even have to be on a server. and of course if we had enough people.

    Here's the link:


    I've been quietly watching the continued development on the game. I'm just waiting for MP to get stable enough to warrant a dedicated server.

    Some more good news from the most recent update:


    In mod news, can't remember if this was posted but now we have working parachutes!


    Should make dropping pods much easier.

    More MP optimization and sexy sexy bug fixes!


    TLDW version: rubberbanding players and moving objects has been reduced significantly and will help avoid players dying from clipping through objects.

    Also on sale!

    After I get Megamek sorted out, I'm looking forward to giving the dedicated server another go. Really getting a positive vibe on this again.

    You also need to check the Category listing of the "Aviation Wheels" on the G-menu. Currently it is bleeding into the margins. You can see for yourself if you open up the G menu.

    yeah. which is weird it wasn't doing that the first time i uploaded. I have a ton of stuff going on for school right now though. 3 final projects (geospatial program so GIS software). though one we are doing mostly in class. but this takes like 2 hours to do a homework assignment. short description i'm learning how to make maps (not road maps) using information in spreadsheets. and you can search using the GIS software.

    heh. started SE last night to try out some of the new blocks people have made and it pretty much froze when I tried to open the G menu. well was also to see how the aviation wheels looked in the side bar to see how i need to fix it. I know it's bleeding over onto others.

    this one is interesting but wouldn't really make gameplay better. it's just angled and straight large doors large doors. also it looks okay but doesn't fit well.
    (DX11) Cargo Bay Door
    [​IMG]

    this one would really help with gameplay in building more compact ships (DX11)Stairwell
    [​IMG]
    [​IMG]
    it's the two level stairs in 1 block.

    another interesting but not really enhancing or ease of gameplay one (DX11) Steel Catwalk Trapdoor
    [​IMG]
    [​IMG]
    [​IMG]

    this one i think would enhance gameplay as well (at least on planets). MCM Door Ramp
    [​IMG]
    [​IMG]

    saves having to build a rotor ramp that can cause issues because rotors are still screwy (as far as i know) and all that weight at the back of a vehicle can mess with balance. though the small one (which is 5 across and 2 high) only seems to go down 1 block height as the ramp while the larger ones (both say 15 across and 7 high but one is labeled small; maybe small grid? and the other extra large) go 2 block lengths down for the ramp. though i think it's typos. I think it's small (5 across 2 high and 1 down for the ramp.) large (15 across 7 high 2 down for the ramp) and extra large (15 across 7 high 5 down for the ramp) but i'm not sure till i can actually look in game.

    so that door ramp mod. it kinda works. by kinda i mean it works well getting a vehicle in but not so much getting out because of the hinge.

    But the ladder block mod works pretty well with the trapdoor catwalks on planets for larger vehicles. as a way to get into it from outside without using your jetpack. thought i took a scrrenshot of what i mean but the screenshot didn't take.

    i will try out the door and see if i can't find a way around it. and yeah, the ladders are now essential for getting into half my ships; a ladder is so much easier than trying to build a ramp for personnel.

    also I can't tell didn't play around with them enough but I think whatever keen did to the wheels a few weeks ago (being able to put replacement wheels on the suspension ones) might have broken the aviation wheels.
