12 00:01:10,740 --> 00:01:15,380 Ever since its launch, Tanki has never stopped developing. 13 00:01:15,390 --> 00:01:19,370 New turrets, hulls, paints and passes have been added, 14 00:01:19,370 --> 00:01:22,420 with the game getting more and more items. 15 00:01:22,420 --> 00:01:28,130 As a result, the current garage layout has become impractical, especially for tankers 16 00:01:28,130 --> 00:01:34,180 with big arsenals, who often have to scroll through a long list of items to find what 17 00:01:34,180 --> 00:01:35,280 they need. 18 00:01:35,280 --> 00:01:39,340 The good news is that this issue is about to be solved. 19 00:01:39,340 --> 00:01:44,460 With the update, the garage will no longer be separated into My Items, and Shop. 20 00:01:44,460 --> 00:01:48,300 Instead, all the items will be divided into 7 categories. 21 00:01:48,300 --> 00:01:53,620 Switching between them will be possible using dedicated buttons at the bottom of the screen. 22 00:01:53,620 --> 00:01:59,500 A folder labelled  All  will display all the items in the game, sorted by type. 23 00:01:59,510 --> 00:02:07,049 Another one will include passes, Double Crystal Card, as well as temporary and unique items 24 00:02:07,049 --> 00:02:10,060 added to the game for various events. 25 00:02:10,060 --> 00:02:14,920 Now, about folders with turrets, hulls and paints. 26 00:02:14,920 --> 00:02:21,900 Guns will still be sorted according to effective range, and hulls according to weight and protection. 27 00:02:21,900 --> 00:02:27,939 Paints will be displayed in a different order — the ones will the best protections will 28 00:02:27,939 --> 00:02:33,409 be displayed first, as they are the ones used the most often. 29 00:02:33,409 --> 00:02:38,779 Supplies and product kits will also be in separate categories. 30 00:02:38,779 --> 00:02:44,599 For every folder, the game will first display the items you own, next, the ones that are 31 00:02:44,599 --> 00:02:51,239 available for purchase, and finally, goods that are not yet available due to your rank. 32 00:02:51,239 --> 00:02:56,349 By the way, the game will be memorizing the last viewed folder, and will be automatically 33 00:02:56,349 --> 00:02:59,499 opening it next time a tanker enters the game. 34 00:02:59,499 --> 00:03:05,349 Also, if something new happens inside a category, such as the unlocking of a new item or a discount, 35 00:03:05,349 --> 00:03:09,099 a red indicator will appear on top of the respective button. 36 00:03:09,099 --> 00:03:12,609 We want to make sure players don’t miss anything important! 37 00:03:12,609 --> 00:03:18,789 The folders system will make it easier to find and item you need in your Garage. 38 00:03:18,789 --> 00:03:25,549 Development of this feature has started and we can expect to see it in the game this October. 39 00:03:28,840 --> 00:03:32,189 The Masters of Parkour contest has ended. 40 00:03:32,189 --> 00:03:40,579 In 3 and a half weeks you sent us nearly 500 parkour videos all over the English, German 41 00:03:40,579 --> 00:03:42,559 and Brazilian communities. 42 00:03:42,560 --> 00:03:49,100 More than 30 teams across the 3 communities were awarded the main prize. 43 00:03:49,109 --> 00:03:56,719 Each one of their members has already received the Master of Parkour paint with 30% protections 44 00:03:56,719 --> 00:04:03,039 against Railgun and mines, as well as a hefty bunch of crystals. 45 00:04:03,040 --> 00:04:08,920 As always, all the winning entries can be found on the TO homepage. 46 00:04:08,930 --> 00:04:10,710 The link is in the description. 47 00:04:13,660 --> 00:04:19,820 Time for a new piece of info on the upcoming Tanki on Unity. 48 00:04:19,820 --> 00:04:23,400 Today’s video is about the new game’s physics. 49 00:04:29,550 --> 00:04:37,819 In addition to new graphics, effects and interface, Tanki on Unity will also get a new physics engine. 50 00:04:37,819 --> 00:04:43,620 Our programmers, testers and game designers have a tricky task ahead of them. 51 00:04:43,620 --> 00:04:50,099 They will have to recreate the feeling of TO’s battle machines in the new Tanki, despite 52 00:04:50,099 --> 00:04:55,419 the fact that the two games have totally different physics engines. 53 00:04:55,420 --> 00:04:58,200 A large part of the work is already done. 54 00:04:58,210 --> 00:05:04,919 Acceleration, maneuverability, turret rotation speed, recoil, impact force for turret shots… 55 00:05:04,919 --> 00:05:07,900 all are set pretty close to the current Tanki. 56 00:05:07,900 --> 00:05:12,860 Our aim is to make TO players feel right at home in the new game. 57 00:05:12,860 --> 00:05:17,520 Of course, nobody is talking about making a carbon copy. 58 00:05:17,520 --> 00:05:24,020 The new game’s physics will be different from those in the current Tanki in a number of ways… 59 00:05:24,020 --> 00:05:26,260 Good ways of course. 60 00:05:26,260 --> 00:05:32,759 For example, the new physics engine will change the way hulls interact with the surface. 61 00:05:32,759 --> 00:05:38,360 In the upcoming game, the physical geometry of tanks will be a lot more complex. 62 00:05:38,360 --> 00:05:43,819 This means collisions with the environment and other tanks will be processed in a much 63 00:05:43,819 --> 00:05:45,419 more detailed way. 64 00:05:45,419 --> 00:05:50,599 One more thing: in the current version of the game, tanks sometimes stumble over the 65 00:05:50,599 --> 00:05:53,639 joints of props, which doesn’t feel nice. 66 00:05:53,639 --> 00:05:59,539 In the new engine, this issue will be solved, and moving around arenas will feel a lot smoother. 67 00:05:59,540 --> 00:06:06,640 There’s also some good news for fans of tricks: there will be parkour in the new game. 68 00:06:06,640 --> 00:06:10,740 Better still, it will allow for a lot more diversity. 69 00:06:10,740 --> 00:06:17,069 For example, the geometry of roofs will be following their visual form, so triangular 70 00:06:17,069 --> 00:06:23,479 roofs will really be triangular, and rounded ones will be rounded, so players will get 71 00:06:23,479 --> 00:06:26,250 more space for creativity. 72 00:06:26,250 --> 00:06:30,830 The physics engine for the New Tanki has one huge advantage — it’s a ready-made solution 73 00:06:30,830 --> 00:06:34,580 that is being constantly improved without requiring our intervention. 74 00:06:34,580 --> 00:06:39,100 This means we’re left with more free time for developing other aspects of the game. 75 00:06:41,900 --> 00:06:47,680 Lately, we’ve been getting lots of messages saying essentially the same thing. 76 00:06:47,689 --> 00:06:53,860 “I registered an account, played on it for quite a while, but now I don’t like my nickname 77 00:06:53,860 --> 00:06:55,719 anymore.
