A dump truck and quality-of-life update: a new low-bed dump truck, a much nicer XP reward, smoother machine sounds, and a camera that stays out of your way.
Dump truck
- New low-bed dump truck in white and grey, with a protective plate over the cab.
- The tailgate swings out from the bottom, so dirt no longer gets stuck under it when you tip.
- Tail lights are built into the bed and no longer poke through when dumping.
- Chunks slide out of the bed properly when you tip it.
XP rewards
- New XP sound. A soft blip that climbs in pitch as chunks land, instead of a pile of explosions that kept getting louder.
- Clearer +XP text that sits right above the chunk that earned it.
- The XP shown matches the XP you get.
- Dirt chunks flash white again when they pay out.
- Chunks still in a bucket no longer pay early. XP comes when they land in the truck.
Machines
- The excavator arm responds straight away when you get in. You no longer need to drive back and forth first.
- The skidsteer bucket tips much further, so it empties properly.
- The crane truck is now 4x4 with grippier tyres, so it can get out of rough spots to rescue others.
- Dirt chunks feel heavier and don't bounce out of buckets like popcorn.
- No more clicking in the excavator arm and engine sounds, or when the skidsteer starts up.
Camera
- Other vehicles, buckets and the shredder no longer push your camera in when you drive close to them.
Delivery bays
- No more dark floating shards when digging the bay piles.
- Dumped dirt forms a pile straight away, and you can drive back over it without getting flung.
