This is a balance patch on three fronts. On the ground, hovercraft have worse movement and nerfs to their most generic units, while spiders have cheaper early game units. In the air, light gunships receive some much needed attention and Raven no longer dives. Superweapons now require an energy grid, are much more vulnerable to being stunned, and Zenith swapped its cost with Disco Rave Party again. Other features include more options for line formations, better unit tracking and first person control, APM stats at the end of the game, and some fixes to do with saving campaign missions.

Ground

• Speed maintenance while turning reduced from 85% to 80%. Other vehicles are still at 60%.
• Slowdown while climbing hills is now halfway between the pre- and post-v.1.9.11.0 values.

• Health 720 -> 680
• Reload time 0.333 -> 0.367
• Slow damage reduced by 1/6.

• Health 680 -> 650
• Damage 660 -> 620

• Now steps back while reloading (with Attack Move or or idle without Hold Position).

• Decloak range 160 -> 130.

• Cost 200 -> 190

• Cost 240 -> 230
• Speed 1.8 -> 1.85

• Main DPS increased 3.3% (lingering damage unchanged)

Air

• Buildpower 7.5 -> 10

• Explosion damage 80 -> 40
• Ground fire initial damage per second 18 -> 25
• Ground fire duration 20 -> 25

• Idle regeneration 5/s -> 10/s

• Improved brake rate by 20%.
• Damage 200 -> 220.
• Improved unit AI with preemptive breaking and better riot avoidance.

• No longer dives.

Superweapons

• Requires a connection to a grid with 400 energy.

• AoE 240 -> 256
• Added smoothing. The radius is small but it can move structures.
• Meteors are visually 40% larger.
• Meteor reclaim increased 10 -> 20.

• Requires a connection to a grid with 600 energy.
• Glint falls and docks whenever the laser is not firing. This includes disarm, emp and low power.
• Aim speed is now reduced by slow damage.

Singleplayer and Coop

• Added enough energy to reliably power the enemy Zeniths on planets Caderical and Pendust.
• Added barely enough energy to power the player Zenith and Disco Rave Party on planets Caderical and Zhurou.
• Added radar to assist the Disco Rave Party on planet Cipher, for difficulties Hard and Brutal.

• AIs can now build Starlight.
• AIs know how to place Pylons around their superweapons.
• Updated beginner and novice AI to use the latest build.
• Added AI builds that are compatible with the latest engine, which is still being tested.

Features

• Moved line formation settings to 'Settings/Interface/Line Formations'.
• Added an option that turns right-click drag for selected commands (as opposed to context commands) into a line formation, rather than deselecting the command. Disabled by default.
• Added an option to evenly distribute different unit types along line formations. Enabled by default.
• Added an option to merge small categories of units for the purpose of evenly spreading unit types along line formations. Defaults to 1.
• The previously hardcoded behaviour in COFC that disables unit tracking mode when the camera is rotated can be disabled under 'Settings/Camera/COFC Following'.
• Icons that smoothly draw over models as you zoom out, rather than suddenly switching, can now be enabled under 'Settings/Graphics/Unit Visibility/Icon Zoom Transition'.
• Added keep target command for Raven, since it now makes sense with its guided bomb.
• Bombers can be now be set to retain the target of cancelled attack commands in 'Settings/Unit Behaviour'. This is how other units behave, but it was disabled for bombers to reduce accidents.
• Starlight stops moving its beam when given a Stop command, rather than continuing on to its most recent target location.
• Added direct unit control support (FPS mode). It can be enabled in the lobby in game options under 'Silly'. To enable in the campaign do /cheat, open the cheat sheet on the top left bar, tick the appropriate option, and do /cheat again (to reenable victory conditions).
• Added a tab to the game over screen with command speed summaries, such as APM.
• Added splashes for units entering or exiting water at speed.
