Dog Duty patch notes - v0.94

Hi everyone!

Today I have some GREAT NEWS, because we have a big update live right now! v0.94 is now available for all of you to play, and there's some juicy stuff in there. Let's dive into it with the patch notes!

Reinforcement System Overhaul

Added a new specific soldier model to act as reinforcement, so it will be clearer which soldier is a reinforcement and which one isn't
The reinforcement vehicles are also new, and characterized as police vehicles. (New boats for swamp/river, new car for desert)
There's also been some minor tweaks like timing and other details

Other new stuff

Added a new troop transport vehicle, that carries up to 8 soldiers, with the additional of a shooter on the roof or a parabomb launcher
The new Octo-Light-Tank, will be participating on some patrols in the Desert.

Lots of improvements on general game performance
Some tweaks and changes on the UI/HUD: for example, the inventory icon now is a backpack, among other changes
WASD now may be used to control vehicles on World-Mode
Corrections on the intro conversation at the Octopia gates
There's now a new "Radio-System", to help entering and exiting locations

Chat baloons now show more lines, helping the readability of bigger text
There's now NPCs when you conquer a location. They may tell useful information... or not

Added new loading screen to.. well, show when things are loading, of course!
The endgame animation was remade

General bugfixes

Fixed a bug where the mouse cursor would disappear when getting back to main menu
Fixed a bug where landmines would explode infinitely
Fixed a bug where some buttons would not show up properly in specific cases
Fixed a bug where the intro location was not showing as conquered location
Fixed details like opening a new game file after deleting a file and selecting a new item to buy after buying an item
Fixed an issue with scrolling through available mounted weapons in the vehicle's menu with controller

That's it for this patch, but I hope you all enjoy it because there's quite some new stuff in there! As you might've heard already, we also announced that Dog Duty is coming to Nintendo Switch, PlayStation 4 and Xbox One this spring!
