Eximius 1.1.1 Update - 1st October 2021

Greetings Officers, this update features a few RTS camera improvements mainly with the rotation and keybindings as well as UI improvements and a few balance changes. We're exited to see your reaction and feedback for these improvements and changes.

In this patch, player's level experience has been adjusted to follow a newer calculation. Your player level will increase but to compensate for your credits lost everyone will be given a special event contract by playing 1 online match to gain 4000 credits with no time limit attached.




[h2]RTS Camera Improvements[/h2]

• Added RTS Camera Rotation Sensitivity in the Control Settings
  
• Added Separate Reset RTS Camera Rotation Key assigned to "Backspace"
  

[h2]Officer UI Improvements[/h2]
We have made a couple of changes to the Officer UI by removing the previous officer icon that was not informative to players and instead replaced it with the player's callsign icon to distinguish between officers better. Also we've added a compact Officer Unit indicator for when officers are far from the sight of the player to reduce overall screen clutter. Do let us know what do you think about this change.
