- KitHack Patch #1.4.0
- Greetings, KitHackers!
- We're excited to bring you the latest patch notes, packed with several quality of life upgrades and new parts to enhance your building and gameplay experience.
- We’ve added some exciting new parts and made gameplay smoother than ever. The TL-81 Eos Jet Engine will take your builds to new heights...
- While the Tiny Helm and Vintage Steering Wheel add a touch of flair!
- We’ve also improved the Confetti Cannon for more explosive celebrations, along with making cockpit parts scalable to fit whatever your design needs may be!
- Finally, we've streamlined a few features for a cleaner, more fun experience - Plus a whole lot more! Please see below for the full list of changes:
- UI Quality of Life Features:
- Editor Parts List Fix: We’ve resolved an issue where parts list separators weren’t visible until activated twice. Now, they'll display correctly on the first go.
- Rocket Replacement Notification: You'll now see an on-screen notification when spent Rockets are automatically replaced on your vehicle.
- Graphical Artifact Fixed: Fixed an unscaled element that caused a visual artifact in FPV mode. The view should now be smoother than ever!
- Craft File Warning: Added a handy warning message when attempting to overwrite an existing craft file, helping prevent accidental saves.
- Gameplay Quality of Life Features:
- Go-To Vehicle Action: You can now use the Go-To Vehicle action even when the vehicle is still in motion, as long as it’s not moving too fast for you to catch up!
- Improved Vehicle Recovery: The vehicle recovery system has been enhanced to allow Go-To actions in scenarios where Retrieve/Repair isn't permitted.
- Automatic Refuel/Reload: Recovering or repairing your vehicle now automatically refuels or reams it, as long as the scenario allows. If you're not in a mission, it’s always allowed.
- FPV Camera Adjustment: We’ve slightly moved up the FPV camera for a better view.
- Craft Building Change: The "Go" button no longer saves the craft, giving you more control over when you save your creations.
- Stock Craft Update: Most stock craft have been updated to include an FPV steering part for better control.
- New Parts:
- TL-81 Eos Jet Engine: A brand-new jet engine part for you to experiment with and add to your builds.
- Tiny Helm & Vintage Style Steering Wheel: For that extra flair, we’ve introduced new helm and steering wheel parts.
- TurboPilot Flight Yoke: Take your flight builds to the next level with this new flight control part.
- Cockpit Scaling: Cockpit parts can now be scaled to fit your design needs.
- Improved Confetti Cannon: Now even better for all your celebratory needs!
- Solid Rocket Sync in Multiplayer: Solid Rockets will now sync correctly for remote vehicles in multiplayer, improving gameplay for everyone.
- Gun Sight Fix: Gun sights no longer show visually through glass, keeping your view clear.
- Decoupler Logic Optimization: Decoupler logic will no longer run unnecessarily for remote vehicles, streamlining gameplay.
- Fixes:
- TrackIR Error Logs: Fixed an issue where errors were being logged for TrackIR even when the client wasn’t installed or running. This should reduce unnecessary log clutter.
- Refueling/Recharging Fix: We addressed a bug where vehicle resources weren’t fully refueled or recharged during operations, and resupply actions would sometimes fail to complete. This process should now work as intended.
- Time-to-Full Estimate Correction: Fixed incorrect estimates for the time it would take to fully resupply a vehicle during operations. Now, the time display is accurate.
- Audio Settings & SFX Update: Normalized values in the audio settings panel and remixed some sound effects for better consistency and a more polished audio experience.
- NPC Splashing Effect: Resolved an odd issue where NPCs would cause a splashing effect when you switched focus or approached them for the first time.
- Raiders Ridge Mission Fix: The Raiders Ridge mission no longer erroneously announces changes in drive power, making the mission less confusing.
- Resource Network Reset Notification: The resource network reset notice is now only shown to the appropriate players, preventing it from being displayed to all players in a lobby.
- We hope you enjoy these updates and new features! Thank you for your continued feedback and support. Dive in, test out the new parts, and let us know what you think!
- Happy KitHacking!
