About This Game Solar Lander a 2D space lander that simulates orbital mechanics and the conservation of angular momentum. Players fly around in an Apollo-style lander, land on the surface of a planet, and then redock with the command module to advance to the next level. You start out in orbit around a planet and docked with the command module. It is your job to make a safe landing on the surface of the planet, then get back into orbit to redock with the command module. Each planet has it's unique characteristics based on real life planetary bodies with procedural terrain generation. Because this game takes place in space, there are no engine sounds, or any other sound that cannot be heard from inside the cockpit of the vehicle. All of the game's mechanics are simulated with a full physics simulation that runs 1,024 times per second! This makes the 2D simulation very accurate and very realistic. There is no arbitrary rotation rate or acceleration. As you use-up fuel, your maximum acceleration will increase and you will be able to change your rotation rate more quickly. Even the exhaust from the thrusters are physically simulated and can affect both you and other objects on contact. a09c17d780 Title: Solar LanderGenre: Casual, Indie, Simulation, Early AccessDeveloper:TChapman500Publisher:TChapman500Release Date: 16 Oct, 2017 Solar Lander Cracked insight lander solar array. solar lantern. solar lander. solar distribution landeronde. mars lander solar panels. mars insight lander solar panels. insight lander solar panels. solar energy lander wy. solar system landers. solar lander. lander solar cells. solar lantern. lander solar cells. solar system landers. solar distribution landeronde. insight lander solar panels. insight lander solar array. mars lander solar panels. mars insight lander solar panels. solar energy lander wy Time Warp Update Released: Time warp and pause have been added to the game. Both can have their controls configured in the settings screen. The Time Warp will increment and decrement by a factor of 1x. Time warp will start becoming ineffective at around 10x normal speed, but may vary between systems. Just to make sure you don't lose control over the vehicle, all controls except camera zoom are disabled while in time acceleration.Other Additions. Project Status Updates: It's been a while since I posted anything here, so here is an update on the status of the project. I'll start with the bad news first: This game is going to spend a bit longer in Early Access as I don't yet have all of the features that I want implemented. In addition, I am temporarily removing the quicksave feature from the game until I can get it working reliably.Now for the good news: I'm working on new game modes (eg: free roam and scenario), better integration with the Steam API, and new and improved game mechanics. These enhancements will come in several stages over the next several updates. Here's an overview of where the project is going.High Scores Screen. Aesthetics Update Preview: Over the past week, I've been working on improving the aesthetics of the game. Here is a list of changes that I've made so far:I've added a HUD-type display for orbital speed, altitude above ground, and vertical speed. The HUD also shows where the vehicle is going and which direction is straight down and level with the horizon. The velocity direction indicator is even color-coded to let you know if you're going to make a safe landing.When the update is released, you'll be able to toggle between surface-relative and command module-relative speed and distance displays.In the top-right corner, the text display of the fuel and speed has been replaced with a visual representation of how full your tanks are.Demo of the HUD.Speed direction indicator is blue to indicate a landing score of 1,000+ points.Speed direction indicator changes color as you accelerate. Red is bad!What is shown here is subject to change by the time the update is published. I'm also working on improvements to the in-game menus and the various screens that the menu items take you too. There will be a dedicated help screen and a new settings screen.. Quicksaves and Performance Optimizations: I'm still trying to figure out how to get the Command Module AI to get back into orbit if you manage to get it out of orbit, but in the meantime, I've implemented some new features and increased the performance of the game.Quicksaves. Bug Fixes and Sounds: Solar Lander has just been updated with working sound settings and a bug fix. I also noticed that the previous build didn't quite make it to the live state as I had intended. Don't know what happened there, but that issue is now fixed. And I double-checked this build just to make sure!Sound System. Aesthetics Update Is Live: The first major update to this game is out. This update mostly provides visual enhancements to the UI, starting with the main menu. Everything is now big and centered on the screen.There is a new Help screen to replace the old help information on the main screen and gives a bit more detail about the various parts of the UI. The Help screen will be updated as needed based mostly on player feedback.There is a new settings screen that allows you to assign keyboard and joystick button inputs. These settings are saved so that you don't have to reassign your buttons every time you start the game. There's also an option to reset to the default settings. Due to some limitations in the Unity engine, axis assignments are done via a dialog box that now comes up before the splash screen. The axis assignments are "X Translation", "Y Translation", "Rotation", and "Throttle."The graphics settings are currently set using the same dialog box to set the axis until I get a better system in place. Cockpit sounds and developer commentary are coming soon.The in-game UI has also been greatly improved. There is now a HUD that gives you all the information that you need to land and redock. A button on the top center of the HUD allows you to change the HUD mode between surface-relative and command module-relative information. At the request of one of the players, the HUD now has a horizontal speed indicator.The default controls have been adjusted slightly to allow you to separate the main engine from the vertical translation thrusters (there's an option in the settings panel to change this back if you want). You can now use your thrusters to assist your main engine or cancel-out some of its thrust.The major control differences is that you must now hold the stage/undock buttons in order to maintain thrust, and that the keyboard/button inputs now instantly go from 0 to 100% and back when you use them. This is a consequence of me overriding the Unity's default input system.The screens to view and submit your high scores have also been given a visual update. And a screen has been added for those who complete all the levels of the game without crashing.. Engine Sounds Added: Engine and crash sounds have been added to the game. You may have to go into the game settings and check the "Sounds in Space" checkbox for them to work. A skybox has also been added which you can turn off if you desire. Along with these things, a credits page has been added to the game which you can view from the main menu.Here is a video preview of the new updates for you to enjoy.. Freeroam Update: The freeroam game mode has been successfully implemented. This will allow you to start a new game where you visit planets in any order that you want, provided you have at least reached that level in the Progression mode. The same framework will be used to create tutorials and scenarios.On top of that, there have been a few performance tweaks and bug fixes. One of the bugs that have been fixed is the one that reverses a few of the controls. I don't know when this bug was introduced, but when I discovered it, it was top priority and I thought I had fixed it in the previous update but I was wrong. There have been a few other bugs that have been fixed along the way.For the next update, I intend to focus on adding some more sounds, some dialog, and maybe some background music to the game.
