A new version of Thunder&Lightning has been released. User-visible changes include: - An aircraft carrier that serves as take-off and landing platform for the Lightning aircraft, capable of self-defense with a deck turret.
- Water rendering: A GLSL shader renders realistically reflecting waves of machines with hardware shader support.
- A new Lightning cockpit with multi function display (currently only shows a magnifying view).
- Lots of work on AI.Drones can now take off and land on the carrier after performing their mission.
- Reworked missions that make use of the aircraft carrier. Extended tutorial mission.
- Yet again, enhanced flight model.
- Desktop integration: start TnL with a click on an icon.
- A new installation method: Autopackage.
- Bugfixes...
I hope you like it. Download Thunder&Lightning in the Download section. You can choose between a self-installing autopackage or a classic tarball as method for installation. Should you encounter problems, then the new Forum is the right place to find help. This release has been tagged "070707" in darcs.
