Dear Stormworkers,
This week we add new gimbal control to some lights, cameras, and laser components.
These components now include a new composite input allowing their direction to be controlled with logic. This makes it easier for builders to control and aim lights, cameras and lasers, where previously players would have had to use robotic parts and complex physics systems to move small parts.

This new feature is generally useful for targeting and viewing systems, where lasers are used to scan depth or cameras are used as aiming reticules with weapons systems, allowing the player to easily manage drop and movement. Aiming lights means it is now easier to target lights with fine control, even on small builds. For cosmetic purposes, the control of lights means you can aim small spotlights such as dipped headlights or any situation where you just want to direct light in a tuned direction such as illuminating an area with a spotlight.

As well as this new feature, there are several useful fixes! Please see the patch notes below on full details.
Much love <3,
