BotBrawl Version 0.2.8 - New flight dynamic

Greetings everyone! Over the last two weeks we have been hard at work on Update 0.2.8 which brings an all new flight dynamic and performance improvements.

The design goal for wings has always been that they should reward both ingame skill as well as the skill of building. And that it should be easy to build a basic plane, but hard to build a realy good one. As such we are very happy with the new system. It enables a smooth and controllable flight experience, but doesnt sacrifice features like having to keep the center of mass in mind when building or decreased manouverability when damaged. Heres a little showcase of what flying a plane looks like now.

Apart from that we have been working hard on improving stability, performance and fixing bugs to get the game from alpha to beta.

Here are the full Patchnotes:

Bugfixes:
