Open Galaxy 2.0.0 has been released.
You can download it here: Open Galaxy 2.0.92
Big additions to this version include:
We've also started making tutorials so you can finally take advantage of the inbuilt mission editor to make your own missions.
Open Galaxy 1.0 is now available. See how we used the inbuilt mission editor to quickly recreate missions from Tie Fighter.
Cool.
Looks cool.
Will there be multiplayer and Joystick Support in the future?
Unfortunately no multiplayer is planned. It's really just a sandbox for custom single player missions.
Joysticks will be supported at some point.
Do you plan to add VR support?
Great question. Probably in the future. But the aim is to make a relatively stable and polished game first. And then think about the bells and whistles.
Don't know why,but I can't stop the ship from spinning,using m/kb.
Okay, solved this one, the fix will be in the next release on the weekend. Current release is (2.5.37) so the one after that.
Contrary to my suspicions nothing to do with the controller (though the bug was easier to replicate while using one)
When selecting a mission, it was possible to accidentally load the mission twice. Causing all sorts of crazy problems, one of which was spinning.
Thanks for reporting the bug. :)
Okay, I just experienced this. Turns out the whole controller support is bugged...
For me this occurs when you have a controller/peripheral hooked up to your computer even if you're not using it.
I think it's probably a problem with the controller switch system (the system that switches between keyboard/mouse and the controller).
Now I know what it is, I should be able to squash it.
Hey, thanks for sharing the bug. Is the game generating a bug report screen? If so I'd love to see what it says. Also does this happen on every mission or just one?
Also, A-D spin the ship so make sure you're not accidently pressing those keys. Alternatively, if you have a controller/joystick hooked up to your computer it may be detecting their input.
The ship will also spin before it blows up. So it could be a damage issue.
Sorry for the late reply,it happens non-stop,without me pressing anything.I did remove my controller from the usb,that is the cause sometimes,and it still does it.
Thanks, I've made a bug report, and I'll look into it. If I find a solution I'll reply to this thread.
