UPDATE: Range Circles and Better Combat
Greetings Captains!
We have been working this week on fixing up some of the quirks with hand-to-hand combat. We have added a few new features and fixed some behaviors that we think should make things much more solid going forward. The first big addition is range circles that will show you the radius of things that can be attacked, repaired or healed. We will continue to polish these but this should help make things a bit clearer. Second we got into the behavior of the crew and enemies and cleaned some things up. Crew should be much better at seeking out new targets and much less likely to just stand around and wait for someone to kill them.
The latest is live now on all branches. Pick it up and tell us if you see anything funky.
Next week we will be working on a brand new reward system that should really be fun! Enjoy your weekend!

Cheers,
