# Cold Sweat: Altitude 0.8.0
## **Important: a new default config is highly recommended!**
This is a sky-focused update with substantial balance work around a new wind chil system. I have spent considerable time tuning the default altitude bands, wind exposure, shelter, and protection so high-altitude travel feels dangerous but survivable with the right preparation.
Existing configs will continue to work, but the new default config is strongly recommended for the intended balance.
## Added
* Added Windproof Lining, a new sewn armour lining made through Cold Sweat's insulation system.
* Windproof Lining protects specifically against altitude wind exposure without acting as normal cold insulation.
* Added a white windproof indicator to Cold Sweat's existing armour insulation UI.
* Added per-band wind exposure settings, allowing pack makers to control how dangerous exposed high-altitude areas are.
* Added wind protection scaling based on the number of Windproof Linings worn.
* Added Cold Sweat elevation compatibility: Cold Sweat's own elevation modifier is suppressed only while an Altitude band is actively controlling temperature, preventing the two elevation systems from stacking.
* Added improved status diagnostics for altitude, wind exposure, windproof protection, shelter, thermal blocks, hearths, and Sable ship positions.
## Improved
* Rebalanced the default altitude bands as a complete sky pass.
* High-altitude areas now become progressively more dangerous, with windproof protection, cold insulation, shelter, and heat sources all playing distinct roles.
* Improved Create: Aeronautics / Sable hearth handling on assembled ships.
## Compatibility
Tested with:
* Cold Sweat 2.4.3.1
* Create: Aeronautics 1.3.2
* Sable NeoForge 2.0.5
* NeoForge 21.1.252
## Looking ahead
Version 0.8 is a sky pass focused on wind, altitude travel, ship survival, and high-altitude balance.
The planned focus for 0.9 is an underground pass, exploring geothermal exposure, ventilation, and deeper environmental temperature gameplay.
