Game update

Visual Chemical Spray - v0.17.3

Tornado: Research and Rescue · published 16 Jul 2026, 21:42 UTC

All newsPlayers around this dateRead on Steam

V0.17.3 brings some changes to last night's update to make the experience more polished:

* Now the probe emits a visible chemical mist/spray when chemicals are released - the colour of the mist depends on the chemical being released
* Chemicals can now be disabled and re-enabled in-game, so you can choose to continue collecting data, but not let chemicals be released. This can be helpful especially when you create an F10 tornado and things get a bit chaotic
* The colour palette for the chemicals/data types have been adjusted
* The scroll-wheel zooming the map + camera bug has been fixed
* The trails on the map now accurately reflect the wind field when chemicals make it go beyond 318mph
* Some spawn offsets have been fixed so you don't spawn inside overpasses. Also when spawning in "empty" tiles (forests, fields, corn fields etc.) you will spawn nearer the edge so you don't have as far to drive

Enjoy! :)

In-game event16 Sep 2026Barns, Farms & Industrial Zones - v0.32.0v0.32.0 is part of my ongoing effort to make the map feel more alive and populated.

Some will have a shelterbelt, other's wont, some will have one that wraps around t…In-game event12 Sep 2026v0.31.0 - Tornado Logbook & Updated Tornado BehaviourI am genuinely excited to release this update! (v0.31.0) it introduces a tornado logbook, consisting of personal bests/records and an individual record of every tornado you intercept. Each photo you take is associated with each tornado, so you can go through your logbook, see key stats about the tornado, and flick through the photos that give an overview of the tornado's life cycle. This is rea…In-game event6 Sep 2026Introducing the SD60 Freight Train! - v0.30.0Version 0.30.0 brings something I have wanted to add for quite a while: a freight train and level crossings, in this case the SD60. There will always be at least one freight train line, maximum two, and freight trains will move along them between 10-40mph. There are also level crossings so they can block you when trying to escape a tornado! I have also updated the vehicle impact physics so road…
