September Update

Greetings, Pilots-Engineers!

This is Captain Technician with a new development report. We have prepared the following improvements for the next deployment (this version is currently available on Android and iOS; the Huawei version goes live in about a day or two):

Physics

• New realistic center-of-mass calculations that significantly influence ship rotation dynamics.
• The "engine rotational power scales with distance" bonus now scales from the center of mass instead of the main ship core.
• Maximum speed is no longer universal - it now depends on your ship's mass and engine power configuration.

Optimization

• Optimization of all battle visual effects, including explosions and bullet trails.
• Significant missile performance optimization.

UI

• Improved Main Menu look on tablets and iPads.
• Two new Lateral Button alternatives: Lateral Slider and Rotating Lateral Slider.
• Battle UI Editor - customize the position and scale of most combat buttons.
• New "Center of Mass" visualization button in the hangar.

Campaign expansion

• 6 new campaign levels.
• Introduction of a new mission type.

Technologies

• Regular Drone Bay 6×8 - deploys impressive 5×7 drone formations.
• High Energy Laser - devastating laser weapon with area-of-effect damage.
• Rotating Arc Shields - unlocked by defeating the new campaign levels.
