About This Game Solar Lander a 2D space lander that simulates orbital mechanics and the conservation of angular momentum. Players fly around in an Apollo-style lander, land on the surface of a planet, and then redock with the command module to advance to the next level. You start out in orbit around a planet and docked with the command module. It is your job to make a safe landing on the surface of the planet, then get back into orbit to redock with the command module. Each planet has it's unique characteristics based on real life planetary bodies with procedural terrain generation. Because this game takes place in space, there are no engine sounds, or any other sound that cannot be heard from inside the cockpit of the vehicle. All of the game's mechanics are simulated with a full physics simulation that runs 1,024 times per second! This makes the 2D simulation very accurate and very realistic. There is no arbitrary rotation rate or acceleration. As you use-up fuel, your maximum acceleration will increase and you will be able to change your rotation rate more quickly. Even the exhaust from the thrusters are physically simulated and can affect both you and other objects on contact. 1075eedd30 Title: Solar LanderGenre: Casual, Indie, Simulation, Early AccessDeveloper:TChapman500Publisher:TChapman500Release Date: 16 Oct, 2017 Solar Lander Torrent Download [hack] insight lander solar array. mars lander solar panels. mars insight lander solar panels. solar distribution landeronde. insight lander solar panels. solar system landers. solar distribution landeronde. insight lander solar array. lander solar cells. lander solar cells. mars insight lander solar panels. solar lander. mars lander solar panels. solar lantern. solar energy lander wy. solar lantern. solar energy lander wy. insight lander solar panels. solar lander. solar system landers macOS Support Dropped: From this day forward, Solar Lander is no longer available for macOS and I will no longer develop anything for Apple-brand products. Solar Lander will continue to be updated for Windows and Linux though.. Game Mechanics Updated: There have been some changes and updates to the some of the game mechanics. Here is a short summary of the changes.Additions. Game Overhaul Progress Report Video: I am currently working on a massive overhaul of Solar Lander's systems to fix a few issues that the game has and to make it easier to develop the game in the future. Here's a video about what I'm doing with the game.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JDJ8Ql3kjNk. Project Status Updates: It's been a while since I posted anything here, so here is an update on the status of the project. I'll start with the bad news first: This game is going to spend a bit longer in Early Access as I don't yet have all of the features that I want implemented. In addition, I am temporarily removing the quicksave feature from the game until I can get it working reliably.Now for the good news: I'm working on new game modes (eg: free roam and scenario), better integration with the Steam API, and new and improved game mechanics. These enhancements will come in several stages over the next several updates. Here's an overview of where the project is going.High Scores Screen. Quicksaves and Performance Optimizations: I'm still trying to figure out how to get the Command Module AI to get back into orbit if you manage to get it out of orbit, but in the meantime, I've implemented some new features and increased the performance of the game.Quicksaves. Gameplay Update Preview: Over the past couple of months, I've been working on some more aesthetics as well as gameplay and physics updates.Here are some screenshots of what's in store for the new updates (starting with the physics):The unity engine has a collision buffer on 2D collisions that prevent the objects from actually touching each other. Since I couldn't reduce the buffer or scale-up the game, I simply adjusted all of the collision meshes.Here's a screenshot of the command module being nudged by the lunar module (I advise against that). Most of the command-lunar collisions should look a lot more convincing now. A product of this is that you no longer have that "jerk" that is associated with undocking and staging.Now for some aesthetics:The engines now look like their doing something when their fired. I added a particle system to the engine so that you get different amounts of particles at different thrust levels. The best part is that the engine exhaust can collide with other objects. Careful not to fire your engines too close to the command module. Otherwise, you can crash the command module without even touching it!On the topic of gameplay, I've added upgrades that will give you a variety of items to choose from. I'm still working on balancing the upgrades, but since this game is in early access, I'll let the community help me decide what needs to be tweaked in that department. Here's the upgrades screen (I may make some changes though):For our final screenshot, we have an updated settings screen. Be aware that this is still a work-in-progress, so what you see here is going to be different than what you see when the update is launched.As the screenshot suggests, you will be able to change stuff like the screen resolution fully within the game itself. The update screen's width matches that of the help screen, so it's more consistent with the rest of the UI. I still haven't figured out how to change joystick input settings from within the game, but there will be sound, contrary to what the screenshot would suggest.Among what's not shown in the above screenshot is going to be an update to how controls are assigned. One button per possible assignment.Here are some other things to be updated that are not shown in the screenshot:Reaction Wheel RemovedI just couldn't get a realistic reaction wheel and one that made the vehicle maneuverable. That said, vehicle control is now done exclusively with the RCS thrusters, just like the real live counterpart. And that's going to make the game a little bit harder.Kill Rotation UpdatedThe flight computer is now aware of the minimum throttle setting that'll cut-off the RCS thrusters if the throttle is below that setting. The result is a more accurate kill-rotation mechanism.Persistent Stage, Undock, and Kill RotationYou will no longer have to hold down the key to undock, stage, or kill rotation to ensure the safe completion of said tasks.Steam Achievements and StatsThis will be the first update that will contain stats and achievement tracking. You'll get achievements for progressing through the game, being very skillful, and being very stupid.Mission/Story FrameworkI've put in place the foundation for a story-mode and mission framework, but there are some other things I really need to get out of the way before I start flushing-out a mission set or story mode.It will probably take a couple more months before the update is out. In the mean time, feel free to leave some feedback on what should also be improved, what needs to be fixed, or what should be added.. UI and Achievement Update: Updated. Aesthetics Update Preview: Over the past week, I've been working on improving the aesthetics of the game. Here is a list of changes that I've made so far:I've added a HUD-type display for orbital speed, altitude above ground, and vertical speed. The HUD also shows where the vehicle is going and which direction is straight down and level with the horizon. The velocity direction indicator is even color-coded to let you know if you're going to make a safe landing.When the update is released, you'll be able to toggle between surface-relative and command module-relative speed and distance displays.In the top-right corner, the text display of the fuel and speed has been replaced with a visual representation of how full your tanks are.Demo of the HUD.Speed direction indicator is blue to indicate a landing score of 1,000+ points.Speed direction indicator changes color as you accelerate. Red is bad!What is shown here is subject to change by the time the update is published. I'm also working on improvements to the in-game menus and the various screens that the menu items take you too. There will be a dedicated help screen and a new settings screen.. Bug Fixes and Sounds: Solar Lander has just been updated with working sound settings and a bug fix. I also noticed that the previous build didn't quite make it to the live state as I had intended. Don't know what happened there, but that issue is now fixed. And I double-checked this build just to make sure!Sound System
