B:\Balance

• Remove all modules from a mech with one click via the button located on the bottom-left of the construction table

• Reduced collision size for missiles, which should reduce the chance of them hitting walls at launch
  
• Team up pilots with higher relations in order to improve the ally drone repair perk during combat
  
• Ally drone repair no longer repairs all mechs at the same time; they only repair one mech at a time
  
• Tornadoes should no longer appear on top of your mechs, but it is still possible to appear right next to them, so be careful
  
• Enjoy ten new map variations for each of the ten terrain types, increasing the total of regular maps available to 220.

Fragments have the same armor penetration as the projectile, instead of half the value as before.
  
• Placing wires in the power circuit menu plays a satisfying sparking sound
  

H:\Hangar

• Updated stats for the starter set of mechs in the Hangar to make fresh campaign runs slightly easier

• Always have some components for your city on hand – damage to your city is doubled when you have none
  
• Overall game time has been extended to make it more likely to visit unique map cells and encounter bosses. Each new space shuttle part will spawn further away from you.
  
• If you manage to reach the endgame by launching the shuttle, and you wish to keep playing, the following happens: scientists are capped at 999, engineers are capped at 25 (or in the form of robots if created beforehand), modules will no longer take up more than one slot in the production queue, and population from the city stats is removed.
  

C:\Combat

• Tornadoes disappear after reaching the edge of the map during battle
  
• Destroy tornadoes with artillery or missiles – a tornado has a 50% chance to disappear upon contact with an explosion
  
• Tornadoes change the flight direction of projectiles they come into contact with instead of shifting them
  
• Objects will no longer move inside a tornado when the game is paused
  
• The C-RAM aux module for mechs will no longer target enemy missiles behind walls
  
• Enemy missiles will create an explosive effect upon contact, much like player missiles. This effect can damage walls, mechs, aliens and tornadoes. They deal less damage underwater.
  
• Doubled the duration for how long battle screen notifications stay on screen
  
• Stealing resources from Colubra is harder because they only drop them on death, instead of at spawn
  
• Maps that start with 50 Ovum will try to maintain that number if the number of Ovum drops below 50 – another Ovum will spawn every three seconds if there are fewer than 50 of them.
  
• Underground enemy bases have been updated. You can instantly teleport to another cell if there are no enemies on the map and no bosses near your map cell. In addition, killing the equivalent of the purple sword boss in the center of the labyrinth will be considered a win condition. Doing so will clear this cell on the world map.
