Greetings, Arms Dealers! Another Update to the [b]Development Build[/b] is ready and we are eager to share it with you! As promised, we "open the gates" to two new buildings, [b]Administration[/b] and [b]Warehouse[/b]! You can now deal with personnel, buy and sell resources, handle logistics of tank deliveries and more! We also made multiple improvements to already existing mechanics and scenes such [b]Factory Grounds[/b], [b]Engineering[/b] and [b]Reverse-Engineering[/b], [b]Design Bureau[/b] and [b]Production Hall[/b]! As usual, we fixed many errors so below will list only the major additions to the game and most notorious bugs. Huge thank you for all of your feedback and suggestions! [b]WIP Administration:[/b] [list] [img]https://i.postimg.cc/8cPCwfXB/Admin.png[/img] [*] The game now includes a brand-new building where you can hire/fire employees and Administrators. [*] Finally, as so many of you have asked – we introduced [b]Loans[/b]. Now, you can also engage in negotiations with Central Bank if you are in dire need of extra cash! [*]  Added limited camera motion and zoom for better immersivity! [/list] [b]WIP Warehouse:[/b] [list] [img]https://i.postimg.cc/Zn75QY1k/Warehouse-resources.png[/img] [*] Another new building opens its gates to you - The Warehouse! [*] As before, the Warehouse offers two functions – purchase of the raw resources to fuel your Tank production and handling the delivery of your tanks to the customer. [*] From now on, you can you don’t need to purchase the resource on-by-one but can inquire a complete package with multiple resources [*] To make it even more convenient for you, we have introduced a “calculator” that allows you to order resources for selected tank designs and required quantity [*] The “Safety” parameter of delivery/logistics has been totally revisited and now it corresponds to potential “delays” instead of resource/equipment “loss” [*] Added limited camera motion and zoom for better immersivity! [/list] [b]Factory Grounds:[/b] [list] [img]https://i.postimg.cc/pXSdYTfz/FG.png[/img] [*] Factory grounds starts to take its final shape though much work is still ahead [*] All facilities are now in place making each Building quarter a unique part of your Factory grounds [*] Event notifications have been revisited. A notification log is now also available for access [*] Tooltips have bee enriched with detailed information for each Building Attribute [*] The placeholder pictures for facility cards have been substituted with correct ones [*] Hotkeys (F1-F12) have been introduced to allow for quick travel between the Building quarters [/list] [b] Production Hall:[/b] [list] [img] https://i.postimg.cc/TY1wDmDT/Production.png[/img] [*] Added more explanation in tooltips with respect to "Machinery" requirements and costs [*] Added limited camera motion and zoom for better immersivity! [/list] [b] Design Workshop:[/b] [list] [img]https://i.postimg.cc/2j2yyT3H/Design.png[/img] [*] WIP version of component camera is introduced. The camera should now spin and translate properly to show the selected component. [*] Multiple tooltip upgrades for attributes and cost parameters [*] Reworked models for some Tanks [/list] [b] Proving Grounds and Test Driving:[/b] [list] [*] Fixed multiple bugs with running gear and mismatched tracks [*] Further fixes for MG recoil and “fire” effects [/list] As usual, a few words about the next step. We are thrilled to announce that the game is gradually approaching its [b]Alpha stage[/b]. There you’ll be able to test most of the game mechanics including Research, Contract Management, Military Campaigns and Battles. More tanks will join the portfolio including French FT-17, Saint Chamond and maybe more! Stay tuned for more announcement about the date and other details! [b]FunGI Team[/b]
