0.2.21 - Fixes & Quality of Life (Geometrics Alpha)

Hi all,

Some fixes and quality of life features for the 0.2 alpha branch.

Additions

• Paint job tint editing now supports HSV and hex.

• Pressing delete will now delete all selected objects (including mirrors, if symmetry is enabled).

Fixes

• Addon structures are now mirrored correctly. You can no longer edit the mirrored copy. This shouldn't break any existing structures.

• Fixed powertrain parts being able to be selected through other objects if a powertrain part is currently selected.

• Fixed powertrain parts being selected if they're under the cursor when selecting the tracks.

• Fixed turrets not aiming correctly when rotated.

• Fixed northern map border being too far out.

• Fixed Dunes track trails not applying in certain areas.

• Fixed paintjob editing GUI not appearing if switching to the paint tab with a part selected.

• Destroying a part now recalculates part obstructions.

• Fixed duplicating ammo racks not copying the rack size correctly.

• Fixed rotation snap toggle hotkey not working.

• Turret rings now provide armour.

• Fixed plate structures not creating a plane to allow selection after deleting all edges.

• Fixed plate structures being unselectable when 2 dimensional.

• Fixed out of editor view offset being too low when zoomed out.

Changes

• Breech loading space length reduced from 100% of total shell length to 75%.

• Two-piece and crane loading techniques now reduce the breech loading area size. Using the largest of the projectile and propellant length, instead of the length of the entire shell.

• Exhaust visual effects are now more transparent when idling.

• Dirt is now more present on downward facing surfaces, cracks, and crevices. Regardless of height from the ground.

• Disabled roadwheel wheel height changing using the positioning tool. This didn't work well due to the entire vehicle shifting with the changes.

• Raised the hard limits on wheel array forward/height offsets to (+-)10m, with the slider limit being raised to (+-)1m. They were at (+-)0.1m before.

Known issues

• Part repositioning isn't correct on the mirrored copy when editing addon structures.

File editing

• Added a crew member speed multiplier in design save files.

Continuing on with quality of life next patch.
