UPDATE 0.3.6.1451- Car Tablet, Probe Receivers, Unique Engines, and Bug Fixes!

OUTBRK · published · build 21278587

CAR TABLET

  • Added a brand-new Car Tablet UI that displays four in-vehicle applications:

    • Minimap: Displays your current location, compass, and an active warning indicator.

    • MesoLink: Displays current wind data if the vehicle has a mesonet equipped

    • Car Data: Displays crucial vehicle information such as speed, fuel level, active accessories, and the passenger occupancy indicator.

    • Probe Receiver: Synchronizes with the probes data to display receiver information in real time.

  • Added tornado warning notifications if the vehicle is equipped with an active antenna.

  • Added EAS alerts that trigger upon entering a tornado warning (can be disabled in settings).

PROBE RECEIVERS

  • Added the Probe Receiver, an upgrade that can track probe status, tornado location, and environmental conditions with exact precision depending on receiver upgrades applied.

  • Added five trackable status levels to the probe receiver, to determine how the probe is currently interacting with the environment:

    • UNDEPLOYED: The probe isn’t placed anywhere in the OUTBRK world, and no data is being read.

    • DEPLOYED: The probe is on the ground and reading environmental conditions in real time; however, no tornadic data is being detected or recorded.

    • RECORDING: Tornadic winds are in range, and the probe is actively recording data in real time.

    • DATA CAPTURED: Your best intercept (relative to probe placement) has been captured, and the probe is ready to be picked up to begin uploading.

    • UPLOADING: The probe has been picked up, and the player has entered any car to begin the upload.

      • Displays points earned, distance from tornado, and maximum wind speed recorded.

  • Includes three unlockable probe receiver tiers in the charcter shop—Free, Plus, and Pro—each offering a higher level of environmental precision:

    • Free Receiver (Unlocked By Default): Enables direct data communication to the Probe Receiver Tablet App.

      • Displays the windspeed and probe status

    • Plus Receiver (20,000 OUTBUCKS): Enables the range finder to display a visual graph, displaying the tornadic wind speeds honing in on the probes center location during an intercept.

      • After the data is captured, a shadow circle will appear showing the tornado departing.

      • The exact distance from the tornado is displayed above the range finder.

    • Pro Receiver (100,000 OUTBUCKS + Purchase of Plus Receiver): Enhances the receiver to track temperature and pressure deltas, and further enhances the range finder.

      • Range finder shows the precise path of the tornado on the grid, along with the exact radius of tornadic winds.

        • As the tornado approaches, the range finder will zoom in to display a more accurate path and size relative to probe location.

      • Once the highest data point is captured, the receiver will show the location of the highest data point by displaying a yellow circle resembling the tornado.

CHANGES

  • Enhanced vehicle engines to sound more realistic and unique to each specific car model

  • Changed the Dominator 3 deploy icon to an anchor

  • Updated the scenario rotation to include several new scenarios

  • Increased the frequency of mesonet updates

FIXES

  • Fixed an issue causing players to be disconnected from servers after entering a vehicle lofted by a tornado

  • Fixed an issue causing errors when attempting to open the text chat before loading into the game

  • Fixed the tachometer and speedometer being inverted on the PredaTor
