Beetle Uprising

Beta Build 8/5/17

We've prepared a new beta build with the following changes since the July 26 build:
- Bugs fixes. As you might expect.
- More info on chance of success/death.
- Nicer Nest lighting.
- Beetle Vanity Mode (opens on double click)
- Beetles don't crowd the door as much.
- Aggro distances reduced a lot in combat.
- Laptop touchpad zooming
- Edge scrolling is more controllable
- More detailed bug Beetle view in different parts of the UI
- Added autosave. Reworked save directory and Mugshot/Screenshot directories.
- Hid unusable Beetle slots in Swarm Maker
- Added deployment indicators and progress indicators to the Map
- Escape key is handled with a stack so you can cancel things, and still open the escape menu properly
- Improved various tool tips
- Improved Beetle and Inventory UI scrolling and performance
- New Time control system. Pausing/playing should be more consistent and intuitive.
- Nice creepy splash screen on first loading.
- Panning speed in combat should be nicer.

Let us know if you noticed these changes, and like them or not.

We got distracted getting ready for Coming Soon and Early Access this week. But we should be focused on new Missions and other improvements next.
