Release Notes / 8th Anniversary Update: 2.0.20
« on: October 22, 2020, 01:54:36 pm »
Welcome, Sky Captains and Crew!



It’s time to celebrate our 8th Anniversary! Update 2.0.20 features new customizables such as, hats, goggles, profile pictures, titles, and decals.

In celebration of this exciting milestone we’re holding an 8th Birthday Tournament! In preparation we have added lots of prizes for all the participants.
Catch the action on Saturday, October 24th at 6pm UTC over on twitch.tv/MuseGamesNYC.

Birthday Tournament Items:

  • 8th Birthday Tournament Hat
  • 8th Birthday Decal
  • Birthday Boy & Birthday Girl titles
  • Party Goer title
Awarded to all participants of the 8th Birthday Tournament.

Cosmetics:
  • Sir and Lady Pumpkinhead “goggles.”
    • Will be available during spooky Halloween missions.
    • Coming to the store in the future.
    • Probably cursed.

It is a pumpkin and you put it on your head. Put a snazzy hat on top and hit the town.

  • Mechanical Frontier Hat
    • Available in the store

Nobody is quite sure how it works, or what it even does -- only that it brings good luck to those who venture into the wastelands wearing it, and that it is the most fuel-efficient hat out there.

  • Roman Centurion Helmet
    • Available in the store.

A helmet worn by Roman Centurions -- Roman military officers who held command of 100 Roman Legionaries. Many, many years and a few apocalyptic events later, some airship captains and crew wear these as a tribute to those ancient warriors. They’re also pretty practical as head protection in airship battles, too.[/list]

Edit 2: Buff is now fixed and makes reloads go faster as intended!

  • Broken Crown Brawl (2v2v2v2)
  • Previous war monument.

New Features:

  • Force Start enabled on all game modes, as long as this map has a smaller version (downsize the lobby if you want to!)
  • Missions can now have new objectives, including making another faction lose resources
  • Name your ship loadouts so you can easily remember what they are! Does not change ship name. (Be sure to select the loadout before trying to edit the name, and save after you are done with each edit.)

Release Notes / 2.0.14 (678) Thornholt Throwdown
« on: November 28, 2018, 02:02:49 pm »
Maps:
  • Thornholt in PvP
    • Adjusted maps bounds to a 6x6 grid
    • New cloud layout for PvP
    • 2v2 through 4v4 Deathmatch
    • Brawl!
    • Practice
  • Ashen Brawl
    • New PvP map. Larger, hotter, more spawns than ever! The largest 2v2v2v2 so far.
  • Crown Gambit
    • Adjusted spawns

Ships:
  • Stormbreaker
    • Lateral drag increased, reducing side drift.
  • Magnate
    • Hitboxes adjusted (mostly reduced) to fit ship profile.
    • Main engine lowered slightly.
  • Spire
    • Hitboxes substantially reduced to fit ship profile.
  • Corsair
    • Forward acceleration: 5 (from 8)
    • Forward speed: 35 (from 30)
    • Turn acceleration: 8 (from 10)
    • Turn speed: 12 (from 10)
    • Left light gun arc: 55° (from 75)
    • Heavy engines rotated 90° and moved out slightly. This gives 0.22 more turn acceleration, reduces engine hitbox vertical profile by 38%, and allows repairs from further in.
    • Reduced mass width (inertial bounds) to increase the effectiveness of turning engines. This allows the same amount of force to turn the ship faster without changing total mass. This will also make the ship more vulnerable to force attacks like Minotaur and getting bumped by other ships.
  • Shrike
    • Adjusted engine force and inertial bounds.
    • Heavy turning engines (x2): 225000 (from 144500)
    • Light main engine: 300000 (from 461000)
    • 750000 total forward thrust (10m/s2)
    • These changes do not change total forward or turn acceleration. However, with more force in the heavy turning engines, the Shrike will no longer be able to turn while maintaining nearly full forward acceleration and speed.

PvE Balance
  • AI type A ships (forward attack)
    The AI_A ships had widely varied stats, making some factions much easier or harder to fight against. Adjusted stats to unify the ships. There will still be some small variation in engine power and acceleration.
  • Approximate new stats:
    • Accel: 4
    • Speed: 47
    • Turn accel: 8
    • Turn speed: 14
    • Vert accel: currently 4
    • Vert speed: currently 11.34
    • Mass: 200t (varied between 75 and 330t)
    • Front gun: 1 - forward
    • Side guns: 2 - 45° (varied between 40 and 60)
  • AI Gatling:
    • Range: 450m (from 600)
    • Ammo: 50
    • Velocity: 700
      All other stats are the same as the player Gatling. Damage changes based on difficulty.
  • AI Mortar
    • Range: 400m (from 800)
    • Velocity: 125m/s (from 250)
