Hey everyone!

We’re delaying DevLog 89 due to wanting to put all time we have into bug fixing and testing. But we don’t wan’t to leave you in the dark so here is a short update for the previous week until alpha 0.22.0 has been deployed.

We’ve continued to investigate and solve issues related to stuck simulated agents (mostly aircraft and baggage) while also doing some notable overhauls to the tutorial as well as implementing recurring flights. Since these are major changes we’re leaving 0.21.x behind and are transitioning to 0.22.x to signal its significance and, also because it’s a major change, we wan’t to do some proper internal testing to try and mitigate any large scale issues forcing us to do a rollback as of what happened with 0.21.12. As soon as we have the proper organizational structure and the proper work methodologies we will enable everyone to join in on the experimental branch and by then we should also be able to make the Jira public.

Here are some highlights for 0.22.0:

Lacking path issue error handling for persons trying to access secure zone exits causing persons to walk through walls

Issue with node connectivity on cargo bays (baggage bay) causing stuck baggage at check-in desks

Issue with stuck bags at check-in desks

Loans not properly serialized

Enabled multiple announcement icons on object to better highlight accessibility issues (employees as well as service vehicles, bags will be added later)

Stands do not merge with secure zone area upon build causing ramp agents not to find paths until after reload

Recurring flights implemented

New tutorial structure and features implemented

If the final testing of recurring flights go well and when we’ve completed most of the tutorial overhaul we will deploy 0.22.0. We expect this to occur within the coming days.

In other news, the dev team is currently busy transitioning out of their current jobs to move into working with ACEO on a professional basis. We’d like to remind everyone that we are sadly, still, working with this on our free time which is why progression is not as swift as we want it to be. More information on this will follow as soon as we have more.

So that’s it for now, as I said when 0.22.0 is deployed we will focus on writing a proper devlog for edition 89. If you have any questions about anything we will happily answer them here!
