ALIEN DAWN - Update 18

Hi All,

I remember all the way back to watching the first random person play our game and watching them try to interact with the slide on the pistol and it not doing anything. After that I saw many others do something similar. It's not that I couldn't figure out how to do it because we had weapon interactions on the Shotgun and Grenade Launcher, but there were just to many bigger issues that needed to be solved before I had the time to make each weapon have interacting parts.

New Weapon Interactions
With today's update all the weapons that should have interactive slides do, as well as attachable scopes which was another thing people have been asking for since the beginning.

The game is running and looking better than ever with this latest update (v1.18).

On a side note, I recently received a bHaptics vest and wrist developer kit from the bHaptics company and will be working on adding support for that soon. Thank you to djstelo and jen for making this happen!

As always thanks to everyone who has left an honest review and continues to support the game, I hope you're all doing great as can be.
