Japanese 510mm guns

Today we introduce the largest gun in the game, the japanese 510mm. This weapon was experimental and was allegedly partially built by Japan, before being scrapped.

Recoil animations

Most guns now have a recoil animation, bringing more life to your ships !

Shells and buoyancy optimisation

Shells were greatly optimised, allowing for many more bullets to be rendered at a fraction of the previous cost (about 4x faster).

Buoyancy simulation was also slightly optimised using an improved buoyancy approximation (about 10% less computation time).

Full changelog

  • randomised firing timings for bots with torpedoes

  • greatly optimised bullets, the game should be able to handle 30,000 bullets without flinching now

  • added the experimental japanese 510mm dual gun turret
