Dust Fleet News

[p]Greetings, Commanders![/p][p]Ongoing maintenance of your battle computers continues with another small update this week. Many of you have requested that the Knight MkII and Wolf MkII be available in the standard shipyard, since these ships are still fairly low-tier. I've pulled a few strings with the Admiralty, and they've agreed![/p][p]Patch summary:[/p]

• [p]CHANGE: Knight MkII and Wolf MkII can now be built at Standard Shipyards.[/p]
• [p]FIX: Loadout list on the loadout view sometimes cuts off the bottom ships if the list is long.[/p]

[p]Stay safe out there, commanders![/p]

Hello commanders. Happy new year, and welcome to 2376!

Continuing to refine this cycle of Dust Fleet, here's another small update! Please do leave a review of the game, it helps a lot with visibility. And if you see any bugs, you can find out how to report them here.

[h2]CHANGES[/h2]

• Performance improvements.
  
• Balance update. Heavy laser was incorrectly doing as much damage as the heavy battle laser. Heavy laser damage decreased 400->320, placing it between the medium laser and heavy battle laser for damage output.
  

[h2]FIX[/h2]

• Memory leak caused by missions ending during intense combat.
  

You may have seen news of a vulnerability in the Unity engine today. Don't worry commanders, I've got your back! Unity have released a fix, and I applied it to Dust Fleet immediately. Your battle computers remain secure and unaffected by this issue.

Hello commanders. The eagle-eyed among you may have noticed an update to your battle computers. This update addresses the last of the stability issues, which was affecting a small number of players. There's also a few minor fixes included, one of them fixing a major debuff to the "Local Contacts" location effect.



Thanks are due once again to our community of helpful commanders for helping identify some of these issues. Thank you for making the game better for everyone.
