Hello! Thanks everyone, for all your suggestions and feedback. Weve got plenty of work to do in preparing the console version of Bomber Crew, but your enthusiasm and support has given us the extra boost we need to continue improving the PC version, and the second update is here! Heres whats new:

• Lock Pilot to Station Button If youve ever found yourself in a situation where your pilot has wandered off without you realising, you may appreciate this new feature! Theres a new button on the Pilots station panel, which can be clicked to lock your pilot to the station, preventing them being sent elsewhere in the bomber. Click it again to unlock.
• Enemy Ace Health Bars Appear as Objectives Now when your crew encounters an enemy Ace fighter, their health will appear on the right hand side of the screen as an objective, giving a clearer idea of how the battle is going.
• Toggle Quick Peek with the Z Key Hit the Z key and your view will zoom straight into the bomber, allowing you to quickly get managing your crew. Hit the Z key a second time to return to the previous camera view.

Other Changes: - Balancing of mid and later missions has been improved. Theyre still challenging, but some groups of jets have been spaced out a little. - Leaking fuel tanks now display a visible effect. - Crew can now move when the bomber is at steeper angles. - Low fuel warning are now repeated to give them more urgency. - Bail Out order can now be canceled by clicking the button a second time. - Slow Time camera zoom is reduced. - Fixed: Engine fire extinguishers would not deplete if station was vacated. - Fixed: Medium and Low altitude button labels were swapped around. - Fixed: Rockets can no longer be detonated by clouds! - Heavier crew gear now slows down crewmembers slightly less. - Fixed: Rendering error on rear-starboard tail fin. - Fixed: Audio stuttering sometimes caused by many anti-aircraft guns firing together. There are plenty of things that didnt make it in this time, but more improvements are on the way!
If youve enjoyed the emotional rollercoaster of guiding your crew through Bomber Crews campaign, please consider nominating it for the Choices Matter Steam Award. This award seems to be tailor made for what we were striving for! Were so grateful for all the kind words of support weve received, it really has been the best year :) :wingcommander: o7 Dave & Jon.
