Large engine update first version 2.0 with lots of improvements. This version of the engine contains large changes. This is why it is released in a BETA release mode (not supported) first. Releasing it in beta first means it will run in parallel to the current engine.
New features
- VectorMap instead of the old tile system.
- GIS Conversion via ESRI services.
- Improved accuracy and simplification of values. All engine values are now 64-bit (from 32-bit). This means e.g. no more filling in financial values in K's.
- The old RMI network connection is replaced by REST API calls. Improving security, reducing firewall issues and possibility to connect to the Tygron Platform via other apps.
- New Model System. To allow users to model the 3D worlds to their own linking, each individual function can have its own unique:
- colors for walls and roofs (even for specific buildings as an override);
- name and description;
- function image.
- New and improved selection. It is now possible to:
- Draw orientated blocks;
- Draw multi lines, circles and ellipses;
- Pick polygons to select or remove;
- Switch freely between different selection schemes to draw complex selections.
To be added later
Some old functionality is however still in development and will be added later in 2015 to the beta.
- Grid indicators (livability, heat) are not included. These will be added later in a new Flexible Indicator System.
- Heightmap functionality is limited to 3 levels (water, dikes or flat land ) no curving hills for now.
- The GIS connection is limited to The Netherlands, other parts of the world will be added later.
- Selection area for constructions with a fixed surface layout. Think of a predefined stamp or blueprint that can be translated, rotated and applied multiple times.
