It has been rather quiet for a month, high time not only for a patch but also for an update on what is currently being worked on. The big changelog you see below is only a part of what we've done as a lot of our focus has been on the campaign, which has been fixed and polished up and quite likely is in a better state than the current 4.1 campaign, but not quite ready to go yet as we're doing some more deeper testing attempting to run into those likely still present nasty bugs ourselves first.


Great custom build by Audi ( ... the discord user on our server, not the brand) :P

In addition to that, some of the core engine designer calculations are getting a revamp / rewrite which will take them to a whole new level. Some of you might have seen or heard that the turbo engines are going through their own separate calculations that track all kinds of temperatures and pressures. The same will apply to all forced induction and naturally aspirated engines with a much more in-depth simulation that gives more realistic results with more nuanced dependencies and interesting compromise. This has been brewing for the last two months and is still a work-in-progress, but close to being possible to show off in a Little Dev Update video soon. I'm really stoked about showing that off and discuss it in detail!

With so much happening in the background, the changes visible to you with this update are the various bug fixes, performance improvements, UI updates, as well as art fixes and other additions. Here is the changelog for LCV4.2.13! Note that you can opt into the alpha testing branch via your Steam Library, right-clicking the game, properties, betas, select the alpha testing branch and let the game update.
