Barracudas renamed Barracuda mk1 and mk2 for more clarity, easier to discuss Barracuda mk2: - gains 1 additional flare Vampyr - tweaked Hard maneuver, not significantly different though. Gameplay: - slightly reduced aim "sight" distance which is slightly beyond shooting distance/range. this means slightly longer to acquire a target. (minor buff -> evasion planes) - FLARES: reduced flares life t…

I'm…

upcoming 49.37s: **Hounder** +1 flare (no pts change) **Barracuda** - +++'s evasion adjusted to match the base Barracuda's (still the highest in the game, by far) *its extremely heightened evasion was placeholder from before barrel roll and afterburners existed, and barracuda needed help within the existing limited maneuver system. now that the system is completed, its passive evasion needs to…

Maps: - 2 new maps (desert 4 & 5) Controls: - tab to select next plane (same as E, Q) - show when missile B collides with mountain during planning Gameplay: - increase tolerance for checking mountain collisions (within enemy AI too) should fix situations where your move was clear, but then hits mountain on the server during multiplayer. Vampyr: - new model! - Reworked stats - It is now lighter…
Interface: - forgot maneuver check, now happens only once per turn. then its up to you if you want to skip and end turn (only one reminder) Gameplay: - missiles are now slightly more attracted to flares directly in front of the sensor cone (angle emphasized) rather than closest flare. This should improve the experience by making flares attraction more predictable, but not necessarily stronger o…
