Enarian: Orbital Command · published · build 26297617
Further performance optimisations.
Added a new loot drop type: Cybernetic Implant. Boost the rarity and bonuses of your support pilots through invasive implant fitting. A new slot has been added to support pilot loadouts.
Tweaked fighter and destroyer flight models.
Added Responsive Pause. Press Space to pause the game, issue commands to wings, then unpause.
Added a story-driven prologue, Frontier Warden Cadet. Explore the game’s core systems through a story-driven tutorial.
Balancing changes:
Increased the speed and turning speed of frigates and larger ship classes.
Support pilots now gain veteran status through kills, just like normal ships. Veteran status is retained between contracts and gives them a bonus to their ship, which gets stronger with each rank.
Improved support pilot comments.
Buffed some larger ship types that felt underwhelming.
Fixed a duplication bug when returning from expeditions.
Player mines no longer attack convoy ships.
Uncollected salvage is added to your inventory after you complete a contract and return to the outpost.
Fixed a bug that caused distant ships to wander off into deep space.
You can now place defence platforms where you want them instead of having them placed randomly on a ring.
Fixed some logistical issues with haulers dropping off resources.
Fixed a bug that very occasionally caused players to lose research milestones.
Increased the difficulty and changed the completion style for Recovery contracts.
Updated the Support Pilots window.
Enemy incursions during expeditions now become more frequent and dangerous over time. Balance the potential gains against the risks.
Added achievements that can be tracked via the Commander menu and Steam.
Increased the number and range of defence platform turrets, and improved their targeting.
Buffed the Explosive Nova ability.
Covert Ops ships can no longer hack enemy ships and take you over the CP cap. Hacked ships now self-destruct instead.
Faction shops now stock parts that better fit their technology preferences.
