Dear Stormworkers,
This week is a minor update week! We are adding new communication channels between add-ons and mods so that they can communicate with each other.
This is a useful new extension to the modding API to allow add-on creators to communicate between different add-ons. This means you can have add-ons that can extend each other, or otherwise just react.

We have been using this new API ourselves and now the hospital ships will travel to some missions where they can be useful. This means that you will have a floating hospital en-route to mission locations to assist in career mode.

As well as this new extension, we have implemented some fixes and improvements. Please see the patch notes below for full details.

We continue working hard on the new Oil Industry Major Update! It is almost ready and we can't wait for release.
Much love <3,
The Stormworks Developers
