  • Fix word wrap issues with the inset target display
  • The player is now correctly invincible and has unlimited ammo for the beginning of the combat tutorial
  • The "play dialog" assist now functions properly, not that I expect regular players to use it much
  • Fix the player being able to click on the "open folder" buttons in the ship designer during tutorials
  • Fix the "kill a ship with a ASW weapons" achievement triggering when you killed a sub with an ASW weapon
  • Fix a model issue with the 6" guns

  • Fix a bug causing permanent gamepad vibration
  • The "mattwhite" material is actually matte white
  • Fix the player's ship having a lot of vertical streaks when it's damaged
  • Fix text alignment being off for the range-to-target text
  • The "enemies die in one hit" assist applies to buildings as well as ships

  • Fix mods menu text wrapping issue Modding:
  • Cyan vertices on ship hull models can be used to manually specify where bow splashes should be placed. Set the 'bowSplashUsesCyanVertices' field in the ship's JSON file to use this feature.
  • Techs that have a 'baseRPCost' of 0 will now always be unlocked, instead of only being unlocked on newly-created saves
  • Modded models can specify a custom material color by using a material named with an RGB hex value, e.g. "#AF28CC"
  • New materials: paint-orange and paint-tan
