Sunday Update & Beta Update

2 Updates in as many days? Luxury!


Thanks to all that have so far applied for the Engine Designer Beta, we have accepted the small first round. The beta will be expanded in the future.


We have made a new video, with both of talking in it. It is very informal and off the cuff. Hope you like it:

Re: Sunday Update & Beta Update

Great video! But on the finalize screen, why are some numbers red, and some green?

Re: Sunday Update & Beta Update

If a number is red, it means that stat has gotten worse since you last tested the engine (so whatever you have changed has decreased that stat), if its green, then its improved.

The white numbers in brackets after is what the stat was LAST time

Hope it makes sense, if people don't like it we will change it :mrgreen:

Yeah, without it I don't think you'd be able to remember what had changed :mrgreen:

Re: Sunday Update & Beta Update

Great video!
Now I'm really looking forward to build the engine of my car in the designer. I hope I'll find every data and specifications I need...
(if not I'll remove the engine from the car and I'll take it apart :D

Re: Sunday Update & Beta Update

WOW! That is really amazing. It's looking better approching beta than most even after full release. You are an example for all developers :)
