A build is one published version of the game's files on a branch. Steam assigns a new build ID every time the developer pushes an update, so this list is the update history of the app. The files inside a build (depot manifests) are only readable with an account that owns the game, which SteamRaw does not have yet, so build contents are not shown.

Hi, Boaters! Just a small update today, the Logitech G29 Steering Wheel and Accelerator system has been made seamless to the system. Therefore, you'll no longer experience pop-ups. Instead, you can straight away use your steering wheel and accelerator other than the default control (keyboard). Enjoy!
Hello everyone! In this update, the Boat Simulator received Thrustmaster TWCS Throttle controller support. At the moment, the ideal setup will be the Logitech G29 Steering Wheel for the steering, and the Thrustmaster TWCS Throttle for the hand throttle. Code cleanup is scheduled in the upcoming update so that the boater shall not be prompted to use steering once the steering is connected. Instead, the user shall be able to use Keyboard, Steering, Feet Throttle or Hand Throttle seamlessly. Until the next update, cheers all!
Hello everyone! In this update, the ASD Tugboat control panel now complies with how an ASD Tugboat responds in a real-world situation. Previously, the thruster panel correspond to the directional vector of the boat, similar to a speedboat driving, where the steering corresponds to your intended direction. In this update, the rudder panel has been updated to comply with the ASD rudder direction which is more familiar to the ASD Tugboat operator. I would like to thank Twitter user Emir Timur (https://twitter.com/Whaleofthecryp1) for pointing this one out! Until the next update, cheers all!
