Hi there,
in this article we will cover the 2019 update for our Platypus Typ 707.
First, the biggest change of them all - our "Real Scale" initiative has made its way in, so now Platypus is tiny and adorable, as it should be. However, for this time we will be providing a so called "Legacy" version, which is the size Platypus used to be. It's also updated to v1.5 code.
Now, let's run through the other changes of v1.5:
- built-in GTFO! support for every v1.5+ version(Legacy, real scale, mod), with support for custom cargos in modifable version(see updated manual);
- adjustable steering;
- redone animations for the real scale version;
- enforced avatar's positions(hopefully no avatar riding outside the vehicle after poor crossing);
- updated tablet navigation(rotating map and proper voice cut-offs);
- "Major Repair" option is available at all times(like on LM Scout and Ajax);
- all customization has been moved to menus(once again like on recent Lusch Motors products or GEMC Origin);
- Animesh charger support(we didnt have to update a single thing to make it work with both sizes of the vehicle, aint that a magic!);
- a number of other minor changes such as redone eject code and so on.
- you can upgrade your Platypus(Real Scale version only) to a modifable version for a mere L$500(vendor included in the package). It's not really a money maker, but more of a paywall to make people think twice whether they want to get into all those mod shennanigans or not. We don't want to bestow a modifable version on someone who has no idea what to do with it, so they damage it, and somehow make it our problem.
