Demolish & Build 3 Prologue will include the first few missions from the main release and features mostly but not only:

🚧 Vehicle controls based on real construction machines,
🚧 Physics-based track mechanics,
🚧 Large excavator,
🚧 Skid steer,
🚧 Specialized attachments for both vehicles,
🚧 Controller support,
🚧 Fully destructible objects and structures,
🚧 Third-person and first-person camera modes,

The main game will bring in the future:

🏗️Running and growing the company,
🏗️Randomly generated missions,

A few words about the little excavator

Fellow demolishers!



In this devlog we would like to shed some light on one of the vehicles from the main game (Demolish & Build 3). The compact excavator will be one of your first vehicles in the game. It is also one of the most versatile and will help you on many smaller jobs.





Its small size can be a great asset in small spaces where bigger vehicles would be too cumbersome.

Its first feature is the universal quick-hitch. As the name implies it allows you to quickly switch between any of the available four attachments.



The first one of those is a simple bucket. You'll use it mostly for digging but it can also be useful for destroying smaller structures.



The jackhammer is there to help you with smashing down more demanding structures, such as concrete walls. It can also break down rocks.



The saw is a more specialized tool. It's great at cutting wood, not so with more robust materials.



To complete the set you can also use the grappler. Use it to quickly move objects that are too big for the bucket.



How do you like this little machine? We hope it will be your favorite demolition partner :)

Update demo - full customization for controllers/joysticks/steering wheels

Demolishers!



Many of you have asked for the addition of full optimization for controllers. Especially for you, we have prepared an update related to these changes. As of now, you can assign any function to a button or axis.

We took great care to create a system that is both flexible and easy to use. With it you can use any number and any type of controllers. Also, we did our best to allow you to assign whatever button or axis to every important function. In the future we will also add options to calibrate and fine-tune your axes to give you the best experience you can have.



In the instructions below, we show you how to setup custom controls.



⦁ Select your controller here:



⦁ This button allows you to remove the current assignment.



⦁ To assign a button select a function…



… and press the chosen button. Only buttons from the selected controller will be pooled. You can also assign an axis as a button (for ex. LT/RT on a controller).



⦁ To assign an axis, first select chosen function from the list

⦁ There are 4 modes available: Axis, Buttons, Axis with a modifier, Buttons with a modifier

⦁ Axis/Buttons
To assign simply select the function and use chosen axis or button

⦁ Axis/Buttons with Modifier
Axis/Buttons with Modifier is a special function that allows you to use the same controller axis for multiple functions. In practice, the Modifier works like a Shift Key – pressing it will override the default function and use this one instead.

EXAMPLE:



Let’s use this method to setup the Xbox 360 controller to the SAE pattern instead of the default ISO.
For the sake of this presentation, we’ll use an empty layout but you can just as easily modify an existing one.

⦁ Start by assigning button functions:



⦁ Assign the RT/RB to the right track
⦁ Select right track forward



⦁ Select no binding and press RT to assign it



⦁ Return to the list



⦁ Select the right track backward



⦁ Choose BUTTONS mode

⦁ Select no binding next to RIGHT TRACK BACKWARD + and assign RB



⦁ Repeat the same for the left track

⦁ Select rotate cabin (left, right), axis mode, and assign left stick X (horizontal) axis.



⦁ Select rotate boom (up, down), axis mode, and assign left stick Y (vertical) axis.



⦁ Now, let’s move on to the right stick. Select extend attachment, axis mode, and assign right stick X axis.



⦁ Select rotate arm (up, down), axis mode, and assign right stick Y axis.



⦁ We also need to rotate the shears

⦁ Select rotate attachment horizontally

⦁ Change mode to BUTTONS

⦁ Assign D-Pad left/right to the appropriate functions



⦁ That leaves us with camera controls. Since we’ve already assigned all controller axes we’ll use the modifier.

⦁ Select rotate camera

⦁ Choose AXIS WITH MODIFIER mode



⦁ First assign the left stick button to the MODIFIER



⦁ Now let’s assign the right stick axes to both functions
This means that when we press the right stick button the left stick will control the camera instead of the excavator’s left joystick.



⦁ Repeat the same steps for camera zoom with the right stick button and left stick y.



That’s it. We’ve created working SAE controls for our controller from scratch.


Some additional rules/tips when creating custom control schemes:

⦁ A single axis can be assigned to only one function without modifiers.
⦁ You cannot use the same button for the modifier and a normal function.
⦁ On the other hand, a button can be used as a modifier for multiple functions.
⦁ You do not have to assign every function for a single controller.
⦁ If you want to assign a full axis to one of the tracks, best assign it to the left/right track forward functions.

Future updates and changes

A word from the developers





Fellow operators. We would like to thank you all for trying out this small demo. We are very happy about your overall positive response and we’ll do our best to maintain at least the same level of quality for the final product.

We would also like to take this opportunity to tell you where we are with the work on the full game as well as the future updates for Excavator Playground.





First of all, the work on the destruction system is for the most part finished and what you experienced in this iteration is pretty much how it will be in the final game. There may be some adjustments, mainly to improve performance but we do not expect any major changes for the final version of the game.





We are still ironing out the driving physics and vehicle controls. While we do have a strong foundation to work from, we are still working on performance improvements and some bug fixes.



We also plan to expand vehicle interactions, including different modes for the touchscreen display as well as several attachments, some of which will be added to the Excavator Playground in future updates.





We are also currently working on a new controller mapping system. It will allow you complete freedom to configure any number of controllers. Once it’s done we will add this functionality to this demo. It should be done within 1-2 months so stay tuned for further news. We will also release a small tutorial on how to use this system.







Stay safe and happy demolition.
