What's new

v1.0 [Apr 11, 2012]
- Fixed bug in the order of missions in 2-player games
- Fixed bug in 'naut morale calculations--changed penalty/bonus when crewmates are (in)compatible
- Removed extra duration step on duration missions (the game used to roll against Duration A, which isn't actually a duration level)
- Sound sampling upgraded from 8-bit to 16-bit
- Zombie Crew Bug fixed (we hope) (bug #2085366) Changes:
- The game now offers an advanced preference option to temporarily raise components' Max R&D when they are flown (Max R&D is reset in case of a catastrophic failure). This allows players to benefit from dummy tests flown prior to reaching Max R&D, and should allow them to research back to where they left off if hardware safety is reduced by a newscast.
- Safety penalty in non-catastrophic failures reduced from 10 to 0-10 (0 if "All systems are GO")
- Boosted rocket Safety calculation can now be changed: default remains to multiply rocket*booster Safety, but players can set it back to the average of the two (the way it was in BARIS) in Advanced Preferences
- Launch Facility screen now shows morale boxes next to assigned crew members
- Reduced penalty in manned missions when no one dies to -7
- Mission Review screen now shows prestige firsts (and seconds) achieved on a given mission
- Viewing Stand now shows all missions flown, not just the last three
- Autopurchase now shows the cost of selected equipment
- Some Soviet hardware names changed to be more historically accurate
- Lunar missions have been shortened & made more accurate: Earth Orbital Insertion Burn, Earth Orbital Activities, and Earth De-Orbit Burn steps have been replaced with a single Reentry Corridor step
- Damaged equipment (i.e., where you said No to pay xMB or suffer y% Safety) shows the damaged Safety in R&D and other screens, and R&D also lets you change your mind during the turn and fix it after all, if you want to
- The game now lets you select which crew member is first to set foot on the Moon (your choice is displayed in the endgame screen)
- Players are no longer required to assign a backup crew to missions (the requirement can be turned back on in Advanced Preferences)
