      • Rigid Body Predict
      • Rigid Body Integrator

• Contraption Network Linker:

  • Updated GUI

• New Blocks and Items:

  • Camera:
    • 360 degree camera that can be linked to an Advanced Control Computer.
    • Dedicated Camera node for basic camera setup and non-takeover control.
    • Dedicated Control camera node, when pulsed shifts the player camera to the view of the Camera block.
    • Dedicated ACC Display Camera Source node, allows putting a cameras view on an ACC Display.
    • Fixed stretched camera-feed meshes by isolating sub-level uploads, preserving shader vertex layouts and rebuilding feeds after shader or resource reloads.
    • Companion CCTV app in the Smart Tablet.

• DigiSable app

  • Can now create and import schematics.
  • Works with both Photomancy and Toolgun schematics.

• Compatibilities

  • Flight Control:
    • FUll compatibility between the Ship Control Module and the Flight Control thrusters.
    • Dedicated Flight Control nodes for interacting with and using Flight Control mod blocks from within the Advanced Contraption Controller.
    • Fixed SCM lift, descent, leveling and docking feedback with vector thrusters, including configured Up/Forward axes and SCM mounts on other faces.
    • Thruster goggles now identify the controlling G&G SCM or ACC, including ACC-only automatic control.
    • Fixed HUD projection visibility and reversed bank indications across ACC and SCM Forward/Up orientations.
    • Added HUD mouse sensitivity, turn speed and banked or pitch-and-yaw steering settings.
    • Fixed scheduled SCM propulsion resuming after dedicated-server restarts on sparse Sable plots.
    • Please note: Compat was added with full permission. All features from Flight Control still require and are run by the Flight Control mod, the Advanced Contraption Controller is just a different all in one interface for it.

Known Issues:

• Performance issues when the SCM is autopiloting on a schedule.
• The Schedule graph isn't functional yet, shipping schedules are still needed to create a schedule.
• Worker automation has some bugs.
• Smart Tablet is still incomplete and disabled by default.
• ACC Displays are still very early work in progress and have many issues - Disabled by default.
• Scissor Piston arm renderer glitches when breaking an arm link while the piston is extending.

Notes:

• New app icons for Digisable, Blockmates, and Manifest are placeholders.
• Textures for the Smart Vault/Tank/Battery are placeholders.
