Here is the first Concealed Intent update since the release. I think the Steam release went relatively well. No major bugs were discovered, so I'm quite happy. Of course the influx of new players meant a number of smaller issues came up and I've worked through as many as I can here.

The main change visible to players is that the mouse/camera sensitivity is a little faster now. Also the scroll wheel should work better in menus and on Macs. If this is still too slow, or too fast, the sensitivity can be changed in the Options under the Gamplay tab (the new Camera Acceleration setting). To get back to the old speed use a setting around 1.0.

The biggest change should be invisible to players. The profile system should be more stable. One player reported managing to corrupt their profile and I've to made this much harder to occur and more recoverable if it does. Please let me know if you see any issues here.

Other changes are: all the component graphs have been standardised for easier comparison (and more readable numbers); better wording in various places; a button on the loadout screen to return your loadout to its initial state; and making more countermeasures available in some campaign missions. See the full details below.

If there are no problems with this update, I will be taking a week or so off from Concealed Intent to recharge. Then back to start work on the 1.1 release. Of course if there are problems, I'll be back to fix them ASAP.

Charles.
