Bricks
Spinner Brick
The new spinner brick is a whole new type of scalable. It allows youto create arches and circles at custom angles, radii, sizes andshapes.
Scalable Flaps
Flaps are now also scalable. So instead of two different flaps sizes,there is now a virtually infinite amount of them.
Scalable Thrusters
Thrusters are finally fully scalable! I’m pretty excited about thismyself, and it has been requested by the community for years.
Along with that, they also received a new heat glow effect for thenozzle.
Old non-scalable thrusters are automatically replaced with scalablethrusters upon loading a vehicle. The input scale is adjusted so thethrust remains the same as before.
More Scalables
Besides thrusters and flaps, all of the following bricks are nowscalable: - Fuel tanks - Detonators - RC bricks - Math bricks - Sensorbricks - Switch bricks
Exhaust Trail Effect
Exhaust bricks now have a setting to select the desired effect. Sofar there is the old smoke effect along with a new trail effect.
Camera and Seat Names andOrder
The display names and order of cameras and seats can now becustomized in the editor. The custom names will be displayed wheninteracting with a seat or cycling through camera modes for example. Theorder in which you could cycle through seats and cameras was sort ofrandom previously. Now you can see and customize it.
New Sensor Modes
The following new sensor modes were added: - Frames per second -Frame delta time (1 / frames per second) - Time of day - Wind speed anddirection - Altitude over sea level
User Interface
Color Properties
Color properties received a bit of an overhaul, both on the outsideand inside. Previously, color was stored and saved in HSV (hue, value,saturation) format. Now it’s using the more common 8 bit RGB (red,green, blue) format, which makes it possible to show and enter precisehex color values. Along with that you can now also switch the slidersbetween RGB and HSV mode.
Numeric Properties
Internally, float properties, vector properties and brick sizeproperties were all merged into the same type. This streamlines code aswell as the user interfaces and allows features to be shared betweenthem more easily. For example, axes of all multidimensional propertiescan now be locked together, and you can toggle between brick units andmeters on all distance based properties.
