v1.15.18 - The Airburst Update!

Dear Stormworkers,

In this minor update, we have added airburst weapons for the Search and Destroy DLC. Airburst is when ammunition is set to detonate after a timed delay, in order that it can explode at the approximate range of the target. This is useful for anti-air fire, trench warfare, etc.

This has been a popular request with players and we are excited to add this feature. Program the detonation delay using the logic node on some of the cannons.

We have also made a large list of general fixes, please see the patch notes below for full details.

We hope you enjoy this new update!

Much love <3,

The Stormworks Developers
