Heat 0.2.9.2 Milestone - Autothrust, music, poses, socks, and more! (Patreon)

Whew. That was a busy month. Fred had a pretty bad eyelid infection that knocked him out for a week and it was a bit of a scramble to get things done. However, we still got a lot of fun stuff done this month!

We have the game's first custom music by Anthemics! For now it's one track that plays in the main room. Let us know what you think and if we should commission more music from him!

There's a whole bunch of small features in this build, with the 'big' feature being the new radial menu with autothrusting. The radial menu will be used in the future for all sorts of character-specific controls. For now it's being used for toy auto-thrusting, so you don't have to do all the hard work yourself ;). The 'mouth' thrusting didn't make it in this build, look forward to it next build!

I've also changed the way fluids are handled internally to fixed the low fluid amounts some people were seeing. Turns out people with lower framerates were getting less fluid. That should be more consistent now, and I've increased the max fluid amount and added a fluid lifetime slider. Hopefully the fluids are satisfactory now!

Check out the full changes below and please provide feedback in Discord!

ALSO CONTROLS CHANGE:

Index/Oculus:Thumbstick-press now spawns the tongue/kissesThe bottom button now summons the radial menu

Vive:Grip button now makes the toys spooNorth on the right pad summons the radial menuSouth spawns the tongue as before

How to run Heat(Remember you need SteamVR to run the game in VR, and 7zip(recommended) or WinRAR to unpack it.)

New Patrons: Patreon is really slow at the beginning of the month and may take a few hours to acknowledge you're a patron for the authentication. Patreon is not updating a handful of user's pages and is failing to auth even after a long time. If you can't auth, try relogging into Patreon. If it still doesn't work, go into your Patreon profile and change any setting, such as your Patreon name or pledge privacy setting to force Patreon to update your profile. The auth should work after that. If it doesn't message me on Discord or Patreon.

Thumbstick press: Kiss/Lick

Left Joystick: Move

Right Joystick: Rotate/Teleport

Grip: Shoot w/ toys

Bottom of touchpad: Kiss/Lick

Left Touchpad: Move

Sides of Right Touchpad: Rotate

Top of Touchpad whilst holding toy: Radial Menu

WMR

WMR controls change depending on the model, and some actions may be unbound entirely. You can see/edit your bindings by going to the settings in the SteamVR overlay and adjust the bindings and add any missing actions there.

For 2D:

ESC: Close/move menu

WASD: Move

Q/E or Ctrl/Space: Move up and Down

The 2D interactions are still experimental and limited, but hopefully still enjoyable :)

Known Issues

Laser might not register with UI sometimes, possible fixes are: Game restart, by setting the game window to focus by clicking on it, or by alt-tabbing (let me know if this still happens, I may have fixed it)

You can get boneitis if both hands rub something at once just for the first time. To fix this just move both hands away from the character for a bit and it should stop happening
