Nice one! Thanks Michael! I was planning on spending the day doing some coding as I didn't expect anything to drop before late evening. Looks like my own programming is going to have to take a back seat for a few days. (weeks / months / years).
The first gamma build will be released in a little over an hour. People will be kicked from the server shortly . Here is the change log for the build:
- Playable area no longer restricted to beta bubble
- Playable ship Python added
- Playable ship Orca added
- Kickstarter starting ships and locations added
- Capital ship events added
- Fix crash following docking and accessing starport services
- Fix for multiple input devices not working - for example pedals and throttle from multiple input device controllers
- Chances for USSs increased
- Fix for cargo hatch not ejecting any cargo when malfunctioning
- Workaround for AMD white lines issue
- Check to make sure the target is this machine that this machine is ready to receive authority
- New games account for fines, bounties, and permits
- Added missing text strings for Federal and Imperial missions
- NPC Comms in Another Castle Unidentified Signal Sources should now only display the new target destination rather than listing multiple destinations
Thanks!
Michael

REBOOTING THE UNIVERSE.. 81% Loading
Oh well that dumped on the bonfire of multiplayer. After trying to actualy meet up with our group last night and not even being in the same instance at a station . Logging relogging , leaving private group rejoining many times and achieved seeing each other twice .
Oh well have to wait to see what release brings then. I hope the single player online game launches well today.
David mentioned a choice of 5 ships to be offered.Do we get to pick one of these ships during Gamma to test them?
Not sure that I have ever posted anything even remotely negative, and by all means this is not a negative post, but I really thought there was supposed to be more in this "Preview Release". It seems like a minor change log compared to the 3.0 to the 3.9 change log. Do you get the feeling there will be several Gamma versions also? Oh well still lots to do and see.
No.
THIS. IS. GAMMMAAAAA!
A huge THANK YOU to the wonderful team at Frontier. I've been waiting 30 years for this...
Whatever happens, however many wee bugs may remain to be squashed, this is a fabulous piece of development work - I congratulate you all!
Awww yeah!- Kickstarter starting ships and locations added
No, thank you!Thanks!
Michael
