• Began implementing gamepad input controls as part of ongoing controller support development.

• Sprint can now be toggled or held, depending on player input:

  • Holding Left Shift activates sprint only while held.

  • Tapping Left Shift enables sprint toggle mode.

• Created a zoom feature for third-person mode to give players more control over their view.

• Implemented a quick enter Investigation Mode option for all entries after the first time, reducing transition time and improving flow.

• Cleaned up Investigation Mode transitions so that when entering or exiting, the camera maintains its correct height — previously, it sat too low to the ground.

• Made the Case Board larger to allow for more space and flexibility when arranging evidence.

• Expanded the camera boundaries within the Case Board, giving players greater freedom of movement.

• Increased the speed of camera controls in the Case Board, including movement and zooming.

• Increased the spacing between default spawn locations for evidence and POI statement forms to reduce overlap.

• Made transitions into and out of the Case Board faster and smoother for a more fluid experience.

• Created a screen edge scroll system for the Case Board, allowing camera movement by hovering the mouse near screen edges.

• Added mouse drag camera movement to the Case Board for improved navigation and usability.

Balancing

• CoastGuard

  • Damage: 80 -> 85

  This is enough to destroy a Frigate in one burst
  QuickBuild CoastGuard only gets 80 -> 81.6 Damage (not enough to destroy a Frigate in one burst)

• CIWS

  • Burst Reload: 3.33s -> 2.86s

• GatlingMortar

  • Health: 600 -> 540

  • Build Time: 600 -> 540

• SiegeDestroyer

  • Range: 38 -> 40

  • Burst Projectiles: 12 -> 13

  • Intra-Burst Reload: 0.2s -> 0.1s

  • Projectile Gravity Scale: 1 -> 0.25

  • Projectile Speed: 24 -> 13

  • Target Priority:

    1. Ships -> Ships

    2. Buildings -> Cruiser

    3. Cruiser -> Buildings

  DPS: 49.18 -> 58.04
  This should reduce the amount of projectiles that just hit the sea when attacking the enemy cruiser
  The [c]Projectile Gravity Scale[/c] and [c]Projectile Speed[/c] changes are mostly for cosmetic reasons

Our Community Manager, Chaz, is taking us on a tour of Hamburg Airport (EDDH) and playing a short stint right after release.

Hamburg Airport is a major international airport in Hamburg, the second-largest city in Germany. Since November 2016 the airport has been named after the former German chancellor Helmut Schmidt. It is located 8.5 km (5.3 mi) north of the city centre in the Fuhlsbüttel quarter and serves as a hub for Eurowings and focus city for Condor. It was formerly named Hamburg-Fuhlsbüttel Airport, a name still frequently used.

Hamburg by FeelThere includes;
– Realistic modelling with over 80 custom modelled buildings.
– Detailed ground polygon model.
– Updated Radar screens.
– Modelled Taxi signs.
– Updated taxi light models that follow the curve of the lines and wigwag lights placed at runway entrances.
– Dynamic runway approach lighting.
– Beautiful background cityscape from OSM (open street maps)

Araknir Dungeon,

We've heard feedback from the veteran players in BitCraft that they've enjoyed the combat dungeons but so far they have all been too easy for their over-leveled characters. This week hopefully brings a real challenge for those of you who have higher levels and gear.

The Araknir cave brings some formidable enemies and spawners which will continue to send out enemies until dealt with. For the boss fight we wanted to air on the side of too difficult to really give the community a challenge to overcome. It boasts some powerful weapons, cool cosmetics and a new pet as rewards so get out there and squash some bugs!

More Packages,

We've added quite a few new package options. I wanted to apologize for this falling through the cracks after it was announced last month. I am looking to make sure stuff like this doesn't happen going forward and I appreciate the community pinging on this to bring it back on our radar.

Under the hood changes,

We have some larger changes under the hood included in this week's update which are laying the groundwork for some bigger updates in the coming weeks. This should have no noticeable impact, but it's possible it may introduce some issues we didn't catch in testing. Let us know if you find anything specifically around combat actions, interacting with items (eating food, equipping gear) or general interaction logic with things in the world.

Pumpkin heading out soon (for now),

Pumpkin will be leaving the shop tomorrow for this year, but will make a reappearance sometime in the future.
