We've been uncharacteristically silent the past month - there are several big features that we're working on that we hoped to include in 0.4.1, but none of them seemed to be close enough to make it in, so we decided that releasing an incremental small update in the time that the big features cook is better than keeping silent. In the background we're mainly working on four big things now - the Vulkan API switch (which should allow an OS X version among other benefits), modular weapons, player data (statistics etc) and Io! We hope to finish all of those before the month ends, so gib us strength :) In the meantime this version brings a minor overhaul of most of the games level generation parameters making caves smaller and grid levels less gridy and more open - you might spot new grid setups also. Also present is a balance pass, thanks mainly to the detailed writeup from Dervis (with comments from mosfet and Jupiter Tourist) on the ChaosForge forums. We're not there yet, but we're trying to get there! Of particular note is the buff to rocket launchers - they now have a range 2 explosion, and are guaranteed to appear on each Europa special level. We've also swapped all the weapon models with new preset modular ones - you might notice differences between some of the "magenta" weapon flavors now. Check out below for the full changelog! We await for your feedback (especially on the new changes)!
