Hi I'm Sparky! I'm the modeller for the Azimuth Remastered mod. SEModder is the bug tester, Icon converter, Code..er...(makes the categories) and handles the technical side, like making stuff work for xbox and G-Menu stuff, ect.

The Azimuth mod was originally created by TumbleTV and we have offered TumbleTV a contributor spot, though TumbleTV may have moved on from the modding scene as SEModder has taken over alot of Tumbles Mods(Including the Azimuth Mod!)

The Azimuth remastered mod is compatible along side the original mod- So this means you can keep/use the original Azimuth Mod without the Azimuth Remastered interfering!

This is going to be a very big project and will take a long time to fully complete. There will be times where I'll need to take a break from modelling whether that's to avoid burning out or to take a rest after alot of work or to think of new designs.

The Azimuth Remastered Mod is a complete overhaul of the original Azimuth mod with new and updated models with LODs and proper construction models and straight up new additions- Like the gatling turrets and new designs for large ship variants.

Me and SEModder will keep this road map and list updated in the coming updates and we both thank you for subscribing to our mod! we really appreciate it.

If you find any issues, problems, bugs or questions please feel free to let us know and we'll address them as soon as possible. If you would like to help by giving ideas or requests/suggestion or would like to follow the progress of the Azimuth Remastered Mod, please tick the "subscribe to thread" box

Road map change log is for anyone who is following Azimuth Remastered's progress through the road map. This is an active change log to show what and when I've updated something. I'll display up to 5 days worth of changes before knocking the oldest change log off the list.

Remember- If you have any requests or questions or would like to talk, please join our steam group. I love getting involved with the community and showing off my work and asking for opinions and feedback on designs- even you can help contribute to the progress of Azimuth Remastered

This section will cover ALL the current blocks/Items thats in the current version of the Azimuth remastered mod.

This is a list of future(short term) plans that have still to be decided on which update they'll be released on. This will be subjected to change as updates come out.

Update 7:

Ore detector(This is half complete)
oxygen tanks

Weapon Core:

So it's been said that weapon core will be released as a separate version AFTER all the remastering is complete. The reason for this is that SEModder has a surprise and a few plans. With that said- We all know that this wont happen for a long time as the Azimuth pack includes LOTS! of blocks.

THOUGH!
As for the current weapons- I have been working with weapon core and have the micro and small turret tested with it and there's a few stuff I'm not exactly happy with and not quite sure how to go about fixing(yet) and I'm thinking about releasing a beta weapon core after update 5

Future Projects:

Interior turret
Sloped thrusters
ramped thrusters
Thu cage(culured construction model)
angled conveyor ports + tubes
micro 1x2x1 cargo+h2+o2 container
Oxygen containers
Cockpit seats
Ore detector
Gemini turrets(I actually have a missile truck design)
Batteries

Fun Fact:

Sparky is bad at balance and would require help!
I'm trying to follow the original blueprint components from the original mod, but as many of you have pointed out that things are too cheap or don't add up properly so that's on tumble tv!

Current Projects is a list of stuff currently being worked/decided on for the next upcoming update. This is NOT(yet) a solid road map for update 6 and things may change.
Keep a close eye on this section for updates and progress

Currently working on the passenger seats and control seats. I've finished the cockpit and added a new large block assembler and some new cockpit particles: https://imgur.com/a/aAsfH6p

USB = Large Boat but undecided for Small Boat
ULB = Small Boat but undecided for Large Boat

⠀1-10% = Just Started
11-20% = Has a base model
21-25% = Has LOD1
26-50% = Has Main and LOD1
51-69% = Main and All LODs complete. Only needs construction models
70-90% = Construction models being worked on
91-95% = All models complete
96-99% = Icons and code being worked on

The update section will include the change logs of all the updates and a little info about them.

Update 1 added the first release of the gatling guns and turrets.

Long Gatling Barrel(Small+Large Ship)
Short Gatling Barrel(Small+Large Ship)
Micro Gatling Turret(Small Ship)
Small Gatling Turret(Small Ship)
Large Gatling Turret(Large Ship)

The micro wasn't planned- It was supposed to be the small ship gatling turret and I knew this was going to be small, but not THAT small. Instead of scrapping it, I decided to keep it. This is also a small nod to my planned future mod "The Micro Mod" which adds micro blocks to small ships and a few large ships. This includes a CCTV camera, 1x2x1 hydrogen tank, 1x2x1 Laser antenna and a few more. I was working on this before I started doing the gatling guns. After starting the gatling guns, I started showing screenshots of the small ship long barrel gatling gun.

Container Update

Small Cargo container (Small Ship)
Small Hydrogen container (Small Ship)
Block categories

LOD1 issues with the turret barrels due to graphic settings being set on low/medium
LODs not being registered due to wrong directory

New LOD1 models for all weapons
Converted icons to DDS

The "Azimuth Remastered" was originally going to be called "Azimuth Reboot" and last minute decisions we decided on Azimuth Remastered which may have caused the LOD issues as the model data was looking in "Azimuth Reboot" for the LODs instead of Aziumuth Remastered.

Container Update part 2:
Full Construction and LOD and Construction LOD Overhaul

Small Cargo container Variant 2 (Small Ship)
Small Cargo container Variant 2 (Small Ship)
Medium Cargo container (Small Ship)
Medium Hydrogen container (Small Ship)

Storage:
Small cargo container LOD1 model missing its texture for unknown reasons
Missing assembler blueprints for medium containers
Flickering on the cargo and hydrogen tank rings
Inverted normal faces between the rings of the cargo and hydrogen tank

Weapons:
Gaps in the gatling+turret barrel models
Gaps in the gatling+turret barrel Construction models
Invisible faces in the Construction models
Textures that made skins on the gatling spinners look horrible
* "Lunchbox" Ammo box being shrunken(this apparently hasn't been fixed)




LOD1 Construction models for all gatlings and turrets
New Construction and LOD1 Construction models for the Cargo Containers
New Construction and LOD1 Construction models for the Hydrogen Containers
Made the gatling+turret barrels deeper and aligned them properly

This update was supposed to include the large ship container tanks, but due to a few model mistakes and a missing texture on the cargo container (Pointed out by Ranos) and lack of design ideas for the large ship containers, I didn't want to keep these issues lingering out for long, while I came up with design ideas for the large ship containers, so I delayed the large ship containers for update 4 and moved the fusion reactors for update 5
I added the variant 2 containers to compensate for the delay

Container Update part 3:
Large ship cargo and hydrogen containers! (FINALLY!)

Half sized Cargo container (Small Ship)
Cargo container (Large Ship)
Hydrogen container (Large Ship)
"Medium" Cargo container (Large Ship)
"Medium" Hydrogen container (Large Ship)
Turrets to block weapons category


Shrunken Lunchbox (THIS TIME)
Stretched skins on all hydrogen tanks
LODs on the "Lunch box" not showing up

Raised the component needed for all small cargo storage tanks
Raised the component needed for the "Lunch box"
Slowed down the production time for the "Lunch box"
New folder construction for containers

I had to take a break during this update to avoid burning out and used the time to think up new designs for the 2 new large ship containers.

The half sized small container was a community request to have a 16,000L version because some people thought 32,000L was too much while others thought it was better

The reason the huge containers are called "Medium" was to avoid calling them Large ship Large container

I had plans to re-balance the weapons, but this would of delayed update 4(again) and I really wanted this out before Christmas. I'd like to thank DR.W for getting the damage stats on all the guns.

The gatlings guns are Scottish!
The reason there's 2 variants of the small boat fusion reactor is because I(sPaRkEH) couldn't decide what looked better so me and SEModder decided on both.

SpaRKeH was too lazy to remove "Long Gatling turret" from the Gatling conveyor box because "it was too much effort" so SpArKEh made 3 different barrel sizes.
We also lost track of whats new because there was soo many new stuff and soo many fixes.

SEModder came up with the name "Quad flamefront"

I did want update 5 out by April 1st.
The models were completed on march 29 and I lost sleep and then had to re-paste my Alienware for the stream the next day, which took 6 or 8 hours. I didn't have a full day to properly fix the SBC code and had to give SEModder the unfinished SBCs to at least get the essentials and anything else done and ready for the stream on April 1st. Me and SEModder were up til late on March 31 trying our best and working real hard together to get the essentials ready for the stream. We ended up missing a few stuff by mistake, such as the shipping container Icon. The next morning as soon as we woke up, we started working on the fusion reactor and block thruster subtypeID's and we had to over look the construction components and forgot about the inventory sizes and block pair names as we were extremely pressed for time. The update didn't go live until 15 minutes before the stream started which was cutting it real close. We thank everyone for your patience and understanding and we greatly appreciate the support from everyone. We hope the April 2 hotfix has covered all the stuff that we couldn't cover on April 1st.

Christmas Update update:
Straight and angled Hydrogen thrusters, micro blocks and shipping container update


Micro Hydrogen Tank
Micro Gas Tank
Small Straight Hydrogen Thruster
Medium Straight Hydrogen Thruster
Small Angled Hydrogen Thruster
Medium Angled Hydrogen


N/A (No errors/bugs reported/found)

Shipping Container now has proper construction models

Thrust Power:
Changed the medium Straight ForceMagnitude from 400,000 to 1,150,000
Changed the medium Angled ForceMagnitude from 400,000 to 1,150,000
Changed the small Straight ForceMagnitude from 82,000 to 500,000
Changed the small Angled ForceMagnitude from 82,000 to 500,000

Fuel Consumption rate:
(Slowed down the H2 thruster fuel consumption rate so that it's no longer faster than Sparky downing a strawberry koolaid)
Changed the medium Straight Efficiency 2 from Efficiency2.5
Changed the medium Angled Efficiency 2 from Efficiency2.5
Changed the small Straight Efficiency 2 from Efficiency2.5
Changed the small Angled Efficiency 2 from Efficiency2.5

Fixes:
Fixed Micro Gas Tank Symmetry/Mirror
Fixed Micro H2 Tank Symmetry/Mirror
Reduced the Quad Flamefront's flame damage distance from 0.6 to 0.3 (my bad!)
Removed Herobrine
Fixed group & category mistakes

---

Eye candy:
Increased the quad flamefront's plume

---

Fuel consumption usage is calculated by:
<MaxPowerConsumption> divided by 0.001556 times <Efficiency>
for example:
0.125 / (0.001556 * 1) = 104
104 divided by hydrogen storage = MaximumBurnTime

Update 5.5 is a small Christmas present for YOU. This was Sem's(SEModder) Idea
ScaWtLaND doesnt have kool aid. Only a certain tesco super store has ever sold it(Americandy doesn't count! check its sell by date!)

The reason the gatlings still have equal damage is because I may have known about [REDACTED] for a while and I've been waiting to see what [REDACTED] and also due to time constraints from both the stream and personally wanting update 5 out by April 1st.
Here's some stats I have planned.

Standard:
FireRate:272
Range:131
Accuracy:47
Damage:8

Tri:
FireRate:177
Range:179
Accuracy:53
Damage:10

Short:
FireRate:313
Range:95
Accuracy:39
Damage:9

* Stats have not been converted to Space Engineers. Due to limitations certain values can't be applied without Water Closet

Q: What ammo does that gatling use?
A: Toaster waffles! (it says on the box XD)

Q: When is weapon core coming out?
A: SOon!

Q: Will weapon core be a separate version?
A: aye(yes)

[New]
Q: What is the difference between Remastered and Mega Mod Pack?
A: The name and screenshots sort of speak for it's self. Subscribe to both mods and tell US what the difference is

Q: Why is the muzzle flash in the middle?
A: because the size is fixed and it looks really derpy with half the flash sticking out of the muzzle flash hider. In weapon core I can do something about this, but I still need to at least learn and understand C# so I'm not throwing in random value like a Todd Howard

Q: will this break my ships\saves?
A: No, but the gatlings certainly will ;) Seriously though, You can still use this along side with the Azimuth Mod and still have the old models. The Azimuth Remastered will have NEW IDs so nothing will be replaced: https://imgur.com/HR2zKjm

Q: Why wont the Thrusters work?
A: The Thruster Idle flame(apart from H2) is set to invisible for a "realistic" effect

Q: Will you add [X] from the Azimuth Mod?
A: We'll remaster everything from the Azimuth Mod
(send help, why did i agree to this!) :D

Q: Does Azimuth have a discord?[discord.gg]
A: noh[discord.gg]


Q: When is the next update?
A: me and SEModder both need a break, Update 5 took 3-4 months of constant non stop work due to the massive overhaul and redo of all the models. Good news is, updates wont take that long again unless we have something huge planned

Q: How did you two meet?
A: Many moons ago... Like August 2020 or something, I was updating my boats and I noticed some of SEModders small ship mega mod pack blocks had weird collisions and I asked if he knew how to fix or was able and he did(which was really nice, thank you!) then I started working on a modpack for myself called the micro mod and It was similar to SEModder's small ship mega mod pack, except with its own models(This was being kept for myself). Around October I went back to SEModder with screenshots of the azimuth gatling guns. (I was originally going to keep this to myself, as in not upload it at all, but I was a really proud of it and wanted show SEModder) and within the modding community, everyone was really into it too. I spoke to SEModder and we decided to start working together on this.
