RackCraft

2.9.0-beta.1 (2026-11-12, beta)

Helicopters on the vehicle line (Superb Warfare): the AH-6 and Mi-28 now build on an Assembly Line, going by "Type": "Helicopter" in SBW's own vehicle data. Rotors go on with the running gear, then power, then armament, and they take the line's upgrades. Fixed-wing aircraft and airships stay at SBW's table. /rackcraft vehicleline demo <vehicle> runs a demo line. Self-test VL1.e.

Jetpack in the Trinkets back slot: with Trinkets installed, the Hydrogen Jetpack can be worn in the back (or chest) trinket slot, burns fuel from there, renders its tanks, and leaves the chestplate slot free (compat/TrinketsCompat). Self-test Q12.

Xaero's Minimap waypoints: placing a Launch Control or Docking Port, and a Launch Control survey finding a campus or data center, offers the spot as a clickable shared waypoint in chat. Only clients with Xaero's see it (waypoints.offer, config version 14).

Fixes: a player drifting in zero-g was kicked for flying after four seconds on servers without allow-flight. Ops and the Exchange in orbit now say when "No signal" is a solar storm blinding the Ground Link rather than a missing link. Self-test GL1.f.

Quartermaster 1.4.0-beta.1 (needs Rackcraft 2.9.0-beta.1 or later): vehicle holds now carry a stack of flares (aircraft) or smoke (ground vehicles), so decoys load; they never did before. No more Superb Warfare warning spam for guns on a stand that have no battery. Self-test Q11 (helicopters on the line).

Beta warning: a beta build (any version with a pre-release part, like this one) tells every player it's a test build, to back up the world and how to report bugs, each time they join a world. Release builds never show it (world/BetaNotice, self-test BN1.a).
