August - "optimizing" update


Hey,

I have made some adjustments to the inner workings of the machine.

My goal was to optimize the prototype to be less demanding ... Hope it helps ...

  • added the graphics menu option
  • you may now show fps and lag,
  • enable v-sync
  • set the render resolution

Further little, boring changes

  • general performance improvements
  • added LODs to the trees
  • made the thing run fullscreen
  • removed several overkill visual features
  • adjusted decal rendering
  • reworked the orbital probe movement system to be more sustainable ..
  • changed the menu text to say my name

I don't know if I am going to continue working on this project. I don't want to touch the running system all to much - so my plan is to rework a lot of the mechanics and features I explored with this prototype. Maybe I will recombine them to make a real version 1.0 in the future or maybe something else, something cooler will emerge? Who knows ... 

Well, thanks for reading ^^ and have fun saving the planet
