- Hotfix 0.26.4 - 24 July 2020
These are the Hotfix modifications: - Fixed problem with vertical and horizontal bridge level editor objects not detecting collisions. - Fixed visual inconsistencies in connections in transmission mode after a number of uses. - Fixed some visual glitches in the suspension blocks in some situations. - The force of the steerable spin, the piston, telescopic and linear stage blocks have been slightly increased.
- Hotfix 0.26.3 - 20 July 2020
These are the Hotfix modifications: - Added the option to disable the joystick axes. For those who are having trouble assigning some keys, activate this option (Options> Controls> Disable joystick axes). - Fixed issue when an extendable bar hosts two axis joints. - Fixed issue with activating the completed level screen in inappropriate states in some rare situations. - The stability of the steerable block has been improved. I remade how the steerable block works, now it should be more stable and accurate, but I still haven't had time to make fine adjustments to its new parameters, so in future updates its behavior may change a little. - Improved the brake strength of the engines.
- Hotfix 0.26.2 - 16 July 2020
In this hotfix two problems were resolved: - Fixed problem of not being able to reassign the "up" and "down" camera control keys in the options menu. - Fixed issue with the option "Disable joystick camera control" not working correctly. If you are having trouble with the camera spinning, in the main menu select "Options" in the "Options" window, select the "Controls" tab and activate the last option "Disable joystick camera control".
