Carefully balance mobility, firepower and armour in a dedicated tank designer. Then uncarefully put them to the test in a series of combat scenarios progressing through the ages of the tank. Here, your limit is what you can fit inside your hull and turret while still being able to move forwards.

Hi all, Here's a few fixes for the 0.2 alpha branch: [img]{STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/40992535/d3987dbd1af5d3e89278c8b07e45bc608fb55289.png[/img] [h3]Fixes[/h3][list] [*] Fixed cannons creating a new shell size when loaded, instead of using the one they were saved with. [*] Fixed the view not syncing to the scope's aim direction when exiting scope view while aim lock is on. [*] Freeform: Fixed a case of mirroring stopping certain actions from running. [*] Freeform: Fixed faces potentially thickening along edges which have been deleted, which resulted in file corruption. Designs corrupted by this will now correctly load excluding the corrupted structure. [*] Freeform: Removed ability to split an edge connected to more than two faces, which resulted in game instability and file corruption. [url=https://github.com/Muushy/Sprocket-Feedback/issues/716]+[/url] [*] Freeform: Fixed the button to place a new turret (non-revertably) replacing the currently selected plate structure, instead of spawning a new turret. [url=https://github.com/Muushy/Sprocket-Feedback/issues/715]+[/url] [*] Freeform: Fixed Shift+D to duplicate also triggering the rotation placement tool mode. [*] Freeform: Swapped the y and z positioning slider names to match the transform hotkeys. [*] Removed sentience from the spawned ally vehicle in the flat sandbox. [*] Fixed parts of the currently controlled vehicle turning invisible when viewed from certain angles. [*] Powertrain info is no longer shown when controlling vehicles without a powertrain. [*] Fixed incorrect shadowing of track belt segments. [*] General stability improvements [/list] [h3]Changes[/h3][list] [*] Freeform: Allowed an edge to be split when it's not connected to any faces. [*] Freeform: Actions are now triggered on hotkey press, instead of release. [*] Ammo rack shell size selection now shows (Calibre)x(Propellant length) instead of (Calibre)x(Total shell length) [/list] [h3]Optimizations[/h3][list] [*] Track belt movement and physics is now multithreaded. [*] Significantly sped up CPU-side rendering of track belts. (Using Unity's new ECS) [*] Sped up vehicle spawning (Belt segments are significantly faster to spawn through ECS). [*] Significantly sped up opening of design selection. [/list] Happy new year! - Hamish
