Aetheria 0.2.0
Pre-release
Pre-release
First test build since 2020, for Windows and Linux (x86-64). Unzip and run Aetheria.exe (Windows) or Aetheria.x86_64 (Linux).
Built from master at 01bed8d. This is a work-in-progress build: expect rough edges.
Recent changes:
- Flight under the weaker gravity field: thrust is a tenth of its authored push, and drag applies only above top speed, so orbits coast instead of decaying.
- Keyboard turning ramps up and down so you can feather it, and thrusters join a turn in order of how much yaw they give per unit of push.
- Weapons aim along your view's pitch, not the ship's plane, and the crosshair follows.
- Weapon groups bind to the mouse buttons and number row the first time you fly a ship.
- Stardust and every dithered particle (trails, explosions, guns) now draw under the nebula fog instead of being painted over by it.
- Undocking no longer flings the ship into the void.
- Console:
fly <hull>puts you in a freshly fitted ship of that hull (tryfly Djinni).
