If the new jets don’t strike your fancy, or you are just fond of some of your older designs, the ‘Wheesly’ and ‘Whiplash’ engines sport new models.

Making small fighters is even more fun, even if they still aren’t practical in the vanilla game.

The Mk1 external and IVA environment look drastically different, alongside other remodels to Mk1 parts, plus a new look for the Aerospike engine. Several other parts got a rather extensive makeover. A small air intake and small liquid fuel tank that are also included with this update, making for practical miniature probe core planes, or even a jet-powered wingsuit for players wishing to emulate Jetman or even Rocketeer with their Kerbals. The ‘Juno’ 0.625m engine heralds a new set of parts for smaller planes. The ‘Goliath’ also features thrust-reversal (much like its real-life counterpart), giving more braking options for the budding cargo or passenger plane tycoon. Appropriately named, the ‘Goliath’ engine emulates many airliner-style turbofan engines, sacrificing speed for superior fuel efficiency and lift capability. Players looking to build extremely agile aircraft should give a close look at the ‘Panther’ its unmatched thrust-vectoring range allows otherwise unremarkable jets to dance across the sky. Switching between modes works much like the dual-mode SABRE engines, minus the rocket part requiring oxidizer. The ‘Panther’ engine allows players to engage an afterburner to get a sizable boost in power for a disproportionate loss of fuel economy. Each one has their own special place in the update.įull afterburner can get an aircraft moving. 625m jet named ‘Juno’, the super maneuverable 1m afterburning ‘Panther’ and a ‘Goliath’ 2.5m underslung turbofan. Jet Engines received a lot of love with three brand new models: a small.

The patch notes can be found of the second page, but there are several very important features that bear talking about individually.įirst up in the rather diminutive 24 megabyte download, and my favorite part of every update so far, we have a variety of new parts alongside the reworking of several old parts.

Rather than wait, the players were treated to a small(er) release, as Squad wanted to share some of the features that were ready. However, the transition to 1.1 has taken a bit longer than they had anticipated.

The 1.1 update will bring the game to Unity 5, include 64 bit support, and add multithreaded physics calculations. You may enter as many times as you like, but only two of your planes can be in the queue/rankings simultaneously.Īlso, if you would be interested in helping to run battles, just give me a PM.After the release of 1.0.4, Squad had talked about the next update being version 1.1. Planes spawn at the KSC and Island Airfield.
