STOUT KAYAK <—> UPDATE 2.7
Physics Overhaul
One of the biggest changes in this update focuses on the kayak physics system . It has been reworked to provide much more stability, especially during sharp direction changes and technical maneuvers. The previous “wobble” effect has been eliminated, resulting in smoother and more precise control.
Result:
More responsive handling Better stability in technical sections A more natural and controlled feel
This also greatly improves the visual experience . Movements are smoother, the kayak feels more grounded in the water, and the overall flow looks much cleaner and more immersive.
This is a major upgrade that truly changes how the river feels.
