v0.28.0 - Introducing Ground Scouring
Tornado: Research and Rescue · published · build 25067007
Only one change in this update (v0.28.0) - ground scouring!
The terrain texture is updated and vegetation is stripped from the ground, including grass, shrubs, corn and even in extreme cases leaves from trees! This adds to the atmosphere of the game, as you close in on the path of the tornado you will see evidence of the tornado's intensity.
As always, enjoy! :)

Then as certain events happen (tornado touches down, a populated area gets threatened etc.) you will receive an email explaining how that game mechanic works. Hopefully this will stop…Vehicle Physics Update & Headlight Illumination - v0.26.1Just a small update for v0.26.1: · The yellow truck will actually get lofted in strong winds now - some values got reset while preparing the DLC which essentially made vehicles not respond to wind very much · The headlights on the yellow truck will actually illumate now Enjoy! :)
