Spotlighting

Dev AndrewGarrison  8.4 years ago

Okay, I've spent several hours reworking the spotlight system so that it's not as annoying. Here are the changes:

  • Spotlights now go into your Jet Stream
  • You won't get multiple Spotlight notifications for the same airplane
  • Players are now limited to sending out a max of 5 spotlights in 24 hours

Let us know if you feel the Spotlighting is more enjoyable now!

    Hello @AndrewGarrison, I'm eager to know what are the patterns that decide the spotlight button appear on which work. Because there was a plane I really wanted to give it a spotlight but the yellow button didn't show on the webpage. Thank you!

    Can you give me a link to the reddit post about making mods for the game? I can't seem to find it.
    Thanks!

    @AndrewGarrison is there a way to convert a plane into a CAD FILE I could 3D print? I'm curious because I have access to a 3D printer this week.

    @WNP78 Those are probably old spotlights. From here on out, you shouldn't get multiples.

    Thanks, spotlights were really clogging up my notifications. However, there is a slight problem with the 'You won't get multiple Spotlight notifications for the same airplane' bit

    Yes, it's much better now. More streamlined. Thank you so much for taking the time to do this.
