Waves of Steel v0.32 patch notes
Ships and parts now have better shadow rendering
Added a "firing range" for testing ships, accessible from the designer
The blue buttons in the designer now change color to alert you if you have not added the corresponding parts (e.g. no engine -> engine button is different color)
The Flying Battleship now correctly damages enemy ships that sail underneath it
The Flying Battleship has improved weaponry
Mortar weapons now show a warning of their impact area
The Hedgehog does more damage, and its projectiles reach the target area faster
Placement errors in the ship designer should be easier to notice
Added a sound effect for dialog
Superstructure parts are sorted in order of how much auxiliary space they provide
New ship hull/parts: North Carolina
Tweaked the bounce/darkening of portraits during dialog
Completing mission 100 now automatically grants all techs that drop during that mission, so that there's no need to replay it
Mission 100 now has an objective
Airplanes are generally slower and with lower HP; however, their weapons are more damaging
Planes spend more time evading when targeted by AA weapons
The "Stress Test" mission is harder
New miscellaneous part: foghorn
The Disco Laser has a more appropriate sound effect
Added a Mono/Stereo toggle to the options
Mission 200 "Chrysalis" is slightly easier
Added a secret technology to one of the missions :)
The mission stats display only tracks number of clears, not number of attempts
Rebalanced all ship bridges; each nationality now specializes in certain aspects (e.g. US bridges are good at point defense command)
Missiles and rockets have a different projectile model
Added new mission briefing icons and a couple of new decals
Several spooky new parts

The game no longer uses the default Unity icon in the taskbar

Fix a bug where cinematic sound effects would continue playing after the cinematic is skipped
