So day one of this years Citizencon.

 

  • Pyro coming at the end of October (early PTU test) will open to all backers over the course of the year. This will be test environment totally disconnected to the LIVE branch so expect a buggy experience, frequent loss of playing ability and general shithousery. CR thinks it will be akin to the 1st 3.0 release many years ago. but it's important to test out the new systems while they implement the replication layer. Then they can combine the systems as one.
  • A couple of new ship concepts 
    • standard money generating practice
    • Polaris is in grey box
    • BanuMM is paused but over 80% complete 
    • Retaliator variants in post production
    • new ground vehicle
    • new mining ship
  • New star map. You will need to watch the video to truly see what's next - but its impressive. porting the work done for SQ42 into the PU, tech is ready just needs adjustment to suit MMO instead of SP.
    • FPS map on the HUD, can put down POI that persist. You can save and share POI between party members setting waypoints, rendezvous points etc.
    • FPS map is dynamic, you can zoom from person, to location (including ship interior), to planet, to system seamlessly - all one map. This is important for POI because you can place down mining resource locations, salvage finds etc dynamically, then share those with party members. This will be the system used when selling exploration locations, mining claims and land claims.

Oh and Benoir came on with a proper mic drop moment. 

 

Showed server meshing, streaming and replication layer working in full. Not just static meshing, which we are getting very soon (actually) but full dynamic meshing.  amazing stuff!
