Early Access Patch Notes - 12.14.2018

Hello Forklift Fans,

We're posting this week's update a day late and a proverbial dollar short. We have a surprise for next week and we continue to add features and improve the game.

BUILD NOTES

• Added New Forklift: Side Stance Reach Truck + Learning the Basics Lessons
• Added Full Localization Support and Temporary "Computer Translations" for 10 languages.
• French, Italian, German, Japanese, Korean, Brazilian Portuguese, Russian, Simplified Chinese, and Spanish are now supported (If you want to help with translations please email us)
• The game now pauses when you open the pause menu
• Improved VR menu functionality, snaps to cardinal direction so you can always see it.

KNOWN ISSUES

No VR controller support for Side Stance Reach Truck
Loading Screen Text is not localized
"Next Lesson" button for some Side Stance Reach Truck lessons is missing

Like I said, we are posting this update on Friday instead of our target date of Thursday for a few reasons. First, we desperately wanted to deliver the total rewrite of the control system into the game. This controller overhaul will add support for almost every wheel as well as tons of input devices you may be using. Second, almost all of our team is taking off early for the holidays. We wanted to pack as many updates into this build because there will only be a few of us left in the office for next week's update.

On the topic of Holidays. We've had a long year and are looking forward to spending time with our families. We will be out of the office beginning 22.12.2018 and we will return 07.01.2019. After next week our next game update is scheduled for 10.01.2019.

NEXT WEEK SURPRISE

We have everything ready to roll out the controller system upgrade. We just need more time for testing such a major change. On Monday or Tuesday of next week we plan to upload a bonus update. This bonus update is in addition to our standard weekly update.

NEXT WEEK'S UPDATE

Next Thursday we are planning to add the virtual controls for the Side Stance Reach Truck, Bug Fixes for the Side Stance Reach Truck lesson completion, and Oculus controller support.

Keep sending feedback we love it!
