Casual flight, smoother strikes
A changelist for FPV: Drone Strike & Racing.
Added
3 changes-
Casual or Sim - A first-launch choice between Casual and Sim flight. Casual flies like a plane: point where you want to go, W/S set the speed, A/D turn. It keeps itself off the ground and climbs over obstacles unless you aim steeply down to dive. On a gamepad, the right stick steers and the left stick sets speed. Sim is full manual acro.
-
Casual any time - Casual is also selectable any time in Settings, Controls, and with the flight-mode key.
-
Menu pictures - Every drone, mission, track and mode now has a menu picture. They were missing from earlier builds.
Improved
3 changes-
Main menu - Loads faster and no longer stutters for its first seconds.
-
Hit replay - The X-ray hit replay now plays first, and the spotter feed takes over after it.
-
Casual hints - The drone OSD and training hints explain the casual controls.
Fixed
5 changes-
Stutters - No more hitches after strikes, respawns and camera jumps. The grass was creating garbage on every ground sample.
-
First strike freeze - The freeze on the first strike of every session is gone. Effects now load behind the loading screen.
-
Menu errors - Hundreds of thousands of errors were being logged in the main menu.
-
Antenna model - Missing antenna model errors.
-
Menu style - An invalid menu style rule.
