Dear Mechanics,

Welcome to our one hundred and ten development status update.

It has been a long time since we wrote the last development status for Tank Mechanic Simulator. As you have probably seen during that time we have released plenty of patches and hotfixes. But it doesn't mean we are not working and developing new content and features for our game. We would like to show you some of the progress.

Progress of Stage 1 from our Roadmap 2022
We’ve spent the last two months on heavy QA testing and bug fixing, to get rid of old problems before heading out to work on new stuff. At this point, we can move on as patch 1.3.4.1 has been released.


Camera
The next stop is the camera overhaul, which will be more usable and flexible. Our design here is to allow not only orbital movement around a pivot but allowing the player to change the pivot position itself and fly around the tank to have access to harder positions. This is based on your feedback that some parts of the tank are inaccessible (especially new tanks, with details and tank parts hidden on the tank belly or deep inside the tank hull).
If you have any suggestions on how to tackle camera movement or you can direct us to a game that, in your opinion, does this correctly, then please give us a hint! :)

New vehicles progress

For the new DLC, we chose tanks from the Sherman family. 5 new vehicles + 2 tanks that are going to be reworked. Here is the list:
  • M4A1 Sherman (Early production)
  • M4 Sherman (Mid production
  • M4A2 Sherman (Late production)
  • M4A3E2 Jumbo
  • T34 Calliope
  • M4A3E8 Sherman (will be included as a free update)
  • M10 Wolverine (will be included as a free update)


Tank Creator
There is one last step to finish the basic module of the mod tools for creating custom tanks - allowing the modded tanks to shoot. Right now we are adding this feature to the editor as well as tools that will allow you to create custom vehicle weapons and their configs + ammo configs.
When this is finished then the only thing left to do is to finalize the UI for the tool kit and to create a .pdf covering the whole process of the tank creation. We might also record a few videos on how to make a tank, but that is a future thing.
Let us know if you would be interested in testing out the tools before we release them publicly, write to community@degenerals.com.


Thanks for all the support and have a good weekend.

Dear Mechanics,

We present you the 1.3.4.1 update. We have focused on the most frequently reported bugs and problems, and major ones which were with us for a long time.

MacOS version is going to be updated today.

1.3.4.1

Added:
  • Ability to filter tanks in tank shop (previously only tank parts were possible to be filtered)
  • A limit of 32 profiles (if you have more than that in your save it should not be a problem, just you wont be allowed to add more)
Fixed:
  • A crash that occurred at the beginning of the game as player could not move at all
  • Added cooldown timer to various mode changing input methods so the game does not allow too many changes too often, as it could cause bugs
  • Issue when player loaded the game through LoadMenu and the game did not correctly handle the data after logic
  • Issue of very old saves not being able to merge correctly into new version, causing Storage parts not being saved at all
  • Game could not handle the correct state of tank parts with screws and allow for selection, highlighting other tank parts or changing interaction mode when a tank part with screws was selected
  • Opening radial menu now works while looking and M18Hellcat engine
  • [IS-2]Decals putted on mantlet are very small and unnatural
  • Player speed while multiple pose switching now correctly keeps the speed of the pose
  • Small tweaks in localization
  • Goliath poster
  • Speedometer values for American vehicles
  • "Easter Egg" achievement
  • Collisions on the Test Drive level
  • Disabled option to highlight and interact with anything else than tank parts when the player is in orbit camera mode - without it the game was really hard to allow to work on tanks (stairs or engine crane covering the line of sight)
  • Machine Guns horizontal movement in Sdkfz251 and TigerIIH
Improved:
  • Storage Manager stability so the most issues with pink materials are fixed

Thanks and have a good one,
DeGenerals

Dear Mechanics,

A small update that adds an extra field to the recently added bug report. In the new field you will be able to enter your email address so that we can contact you back. Many of the problems reported by you can be fixed by using the appropriate options in the settings. There have also been some bugs where we would like to ask you a few questions to help us find the cause of the problem.

MacOS version is going to be updated today.

1.3.4

Added:
  • Checkbox for output_log and mail input field for Bug reporter
  • Name for Panzer II C spare wheel on hull exterior changed to road wheel so it matches it's twin parts
  • Error that caused the game to crash, when player ordered to outsource a tank part coming from a DLC tank, and left the room with that tank.
  • Pause menu background has now correct height
  • Pause menu won't be displayed in background when the bug report menu is opened
  • Screws now correctly reset when player cancells the assembly of an element with screws on it

Please inform us about any crashes including extraction missions with IS-2, we are yet to know if the issue is fixed or not - based on your reports to us. Sorry for the inconvenience.


Thanks and have a good one,
DeGenerals

Dear Mechanics,

We have prepared for you update 1.3.3 Below is the list of changes we introduced:

MacOS version is going to be updated today.

1.3.3

Added:
  • Bug report panel in main menu
  • Roadmap panel in main menu
  • Discord link in main menu
Modified:
  • The range of water sprinkler interaction, to allow easier work with bigger tanks, buried deeply
Fixed:
  • [Tank/Repair][IS-2]Front suspension arm unable to assemble, due to missing item, even if crafted or bought
  • IS-2 Commander slot is now able to shoot DSHK, while Loader has the ability to shoot the back turret MG
  • [Paint Room][Camo/Color]Some patterns are probably glitched when used with painting- It isn't possible to paint entire tanks with some patterns
  • [Tank Warehouse][LoD]One of the stickers with green "Exit" are flashing inside of the Warehouse
  • Ammo clipping through panels in M8 Greyhound
  • [Tank/IS-2][Paint]Some parts of the tank are not possible to paint
  • Blocked ability to change assembly/disassembly modes when player is assembling/disassembling a part
  • Tiger I Ausf H1][Overlap]Ammo overlapping with Hull Exterior of the tank
  • BT-7 and IS-2 re-worked wires colliders. They are now bigger and easier to select, assembly or disassembly an element
  • Null ref in Resupply menu for Maus
  • TankManager is now correctly displaying more than 10 TankWarehouse areas
  • Resupply menu now correctly allows to buy HEAT ammo for Maus
  • Blocked option to switch between assembly/disassembly modes when working on a part
  • Blocked option to stand up if player is underneath any part - it caused the player to be thrown out of bounds
  • UnInteractable Gearboxes now do not disappear when you work on them with tool while being in interior mode
  • M8Greyhound dependency between engine and fuel system vbelt
  • Lifted blockade that disallowed player to switch between not assembled parts while being in Assembly mode

We ask that you pay particular attention to the last bolded point. We made this change because it may be responsible for some other bugs such as duplicate parts. We hope that this fix will not make your gameplay more problematic. Please let us know what you think about that.

Thanks and have a good one,
