Alpha build - v0.1.14a

Change List

• Improvements to the game's packaging
• Removes the need to install any dependencies to run the game
• Significantly better synchronization algorithm to enable better performance at low framerate

Alpha build - v0.1.13a

Description

This update includes some major performance improvements.

Change List

• Improved physics engine performance
• Fluid simulation speed is now adjustable using the fluid_simulation_steps in the engine node. 8 is the default and lowering this value will improve performance while reducing the stability of the fluid simulation
• Physics solver performance can be improved by adjusting the max_sle_solver_steps parameter in the engine node. The default is 128 and reducing the value will reduce the accuracy of the physics engine but improve performance

Alpha build - v0.1.12.2a

Description

This update includes a few very minor changes.

Change List

• 30 inches of water was replaced with 32 inches of water
• Throttle gamma adjusted for 4-rotor Wankel engine

Alpha build - v0.1.12.1a

Description

This update includes some minor bug fixes.

Change List

• Renamed "Load Script" to "Load Engine"
• Added option to change initial convolution level in audio synthesizer (convolution parameter in the engine node)
• Added flow-rate function for 30 inches of water (previously there was only one for 28 inches of water)
• A file called frame_breakdown_log.csv was created when it shouldn't have been. It's been deleted
• Application no longer crashes when trying to load a .wav file that doesn't exist
• Added a default transmission for some engines were missing one and instead had an empty transmission

Alpha build - v0.1.12.0a

Description

This update makes many improvements to the UI and also adds rotary engines.

Change List

• Rotary engines
• Vehicle brakes
• Engine and theme loading in-game
• Engine reloading button
• Better charge heating model which can be changed via the heat_transfer_coefficient and block_temperature parameters in the engine node
• installation/ folder to make installation easier
• Crashing with a white screen should now be fixed for most users
• Better error checking at startup
• Command line arguments are now supported (to start ES with a particular script)
• Game folder significantly cleaned up
• Laptop trackpads now supported
• Dynamometer now works while time warping
• Fixed some rare engine placement issues
• Vol. eff. and air intake gauges no longer show "inf" randomly while time-warping
• l/100 km cap raised to 9999
• Oscilloscopes now continue working normally while time-warping instead of freezing
• Cam advance was reversed before and is now fixed
