Another IL-2 Korea update coming in this week with a new developer update and a short but very interesting video. This time they are focused on some of the development work they’ve put into the transportation networks in the sim including trains, vehicles, and some other cool stuff. Let’s have a look!
Transportation
It looks like IL-2 Korea is set to up the ante a bit with new transportation features. We’ve learned this thanks to a new developer diary update.
One of the new features is 3D railway visualization (they were previously flat textures). The road crossings are automatically generated at the whole system has physics properties baked into them so you can see in the video how a truck transporting an artillery piece goes up and over the crossing. The jeep traveling in the other direction does as well. The physics are a bit simplified here but the visuals from your aircraft will be no doubt very convincing.
The roadways now have varying thickness levels, they have to way transport options, and some roads will have electrical poles running alongside them. Far from being just static objects, the video shows off how they have their own physics attributed to them as well. No doubt running into a power line will be quite an issue in the new IL-2 Korea on those low level attack runs.
The truck running into the pole, causing it to collapse, also takes on damage and you can see the crew running away from it. Neat stuff!
