Features
- Wind Physics
- Wind Settings to control the wind in real-time
- Windsocks
- New Challenge – Cross Wind Landing
- New Stock “Airplane” – Quadcopter
- Tweaked the instrument panel user interface to improve the compass and add a wind heading indicator
- XML-modding enhancements
Bug Fixes
- Fixed bug preventing discovery of Featherfall Squall
- Fixed a bug that prevented Mirage Speedway from showing up (or was that a joke that I didn’t get?)
- Prevent Restart Here from working on challenges
- Prevent AI planes from responding to player activation groups
- Fixed a bug with drag on initially disconnected parts
- Fixed a bug with tournament validation of part scale=”1,1,1″
