2025-07-07 Alpha 0.17

I don't know where to start. It was a lot work over the last few weeks, as a lot of things changed.

  • Added a new aircraft (loosely based on the Messerschmitt BF 109)

  • Added a secondary weapon (bombs, ready to be dropped)

  • Tweaked the AI autopilots

  • Messed up the flight physics for the BF 109. It still does not feel right at the moment.

  • Did **a lot** of balancing, still work in progress

  • Added the game mode "fixed targets". Still a lot to do

  • Added the first floor to House1

  • Added the basement to House1

  • Removed the L-shaped kidsroom

  • Added stairs / the staircase to House1. Handrails still missing

  • Added volumetric lighting / volumetric shadows to make light rays more beautiful

  • Added a system to add "secondary weapons" at arbitgrary points on each aircraft

  • Added some debug information (to be removed later)

  • Did a lot of GUI-stuff

  • Cleaned up the level structure and level loading sequence

  • Added some more assets to the storage room in House1

  • Added a lot of assets to the KidsRoom and Bathroom of House1

  • Messed up the Niagara collision settings of the BF 109. Have to repair this ASAP!

  • Reduced the audio volume of the 20mm cannon (in reality it was inaudible by the pilot due to engine noise)

  • Did a lot of clean-up

  • Disabled some **currently** unused UI-functions

  • Prepared the landing gear to be retractable. It is... nearly... working

  • Increased the ammount of ammo loaded to be a bit more like the original BF 109

  • Made the cockpit glow. Just for the looks.

  • Messed up the landing gear physics. Currently it is better to only "drop start". Going to fix that!

  • Played around with audio occlusion. You guessed it. A lot work to be done here.

  • Built a set of Steam capsules and all the assets required for the "coming soon" announcement

  • Oh, and published the "coming soon" announcement on Steam. Toybox Aces is visible now on Steam!

I know that many stuff is broken or not working as expected right now. But... hey, that's what the "Alpha" is meant to say, right?
