Item changes / Unit changes / General bug fixes and balancing
Item changes:
-Biowar Standby Case: Full infection halt, 1Pos/s, 0.5hp/s.
-S Class Stims: 20s duration, 50% dmg res., followed by 10s of pure negativity! Can be interrupted/re-stimmed at any time, as per previous version.
Unit changes:
-Geist's healing lamp now functions at 2hp/s
General fixes/changes:
-vs. INFC stats under the [TACTICAL] pane now reads properly
(0-99% is how much the rate of infection growth is retarded. 100% still reflects full resistance.)
-more items' descriptions retuned for greater statistical detail
-Being in a negative financial state no longer prevents you from hiring "free" units.
-tutorial missing movement icon image fixed
-Ruin Site Dark Sector now only available after 263 kills, around the Monster Hunt mission.
Quality of Life additions and Fixes!
Quality of Life additions

-Sca[N]ner to be changed to [N]
-Option to Stop Forcefiring on LMB release.
-Additional Tutorial elements and text updates/changes
-Some Items have updated descriptions, such as Biowar Standby cases.
-Static Shields now have enhanced anti-ballistic coverage, especially to the sides, and when carried.
- Cryopodding range extended (should help some on Heartbreaker as well c:)
Fixes
-Decon Showers, Chestlamps (Decon team, geist etc) and Healing lamps (Biowar team) no longer erratic and now confer modifiers at the original rate (Recent Unity update made it wonky, sorry)
-Spawners should no longer spawn under partial overhangs, especially Ruin Sites.
Hold-to-forcefire is now an option
[F] key remains as the shortcut to the command.
Happy drops!
Carry+1, Equip+1 bugfix / General UIUX tweaks
Permanent Upgrades are now permanent
Sorry! Fixed bodybags not saving correctly, the itemslot/equipslot status of the unit it belongs to, and upon reviving losing the slots of said unit.
General UIUX tweaks
- Textfield updates/corrections in locker and dispensers.
- Added mention of what R-Points are for as well as what Red Sites generally represent when talking to Cpl Diu.
-Hold-to-Forcefire now togglable in settings!
Box-style unit selection added / Unblocked Info Overlay
Think outside the-
"Drag and draw a box style" unit selection can now be found in settings!
Info Overlay
You may now interact 'through' the info-overlay. Overlay backing sprite has been edited to help facilitate a balance of legibility and transparency.
Introducing Ruin Sites / New Enemies / New items /CryoPod upgrade!
Ruin Sites
Ruin Sites are Mission Sites featuring a range of "practically random" to "semi-random" layouts tailored to the threats commanders will be encountering in them.This should afford near-limitless replayability where geometry-oriented tactics is concerned. Some Ruin sites even come with entirely random Spawns.
New Strain Threats
5 new Mechanised Strain and the Cloaker Strain have been introduced to the roster of foes. Mechanised Strain are essentially Combat Drones infested with Strain. Yeah, that happened. :/
New Items
The Carry Slot+1 and Weapon Slot+1 upgrades permanently allow commanders to upgrade their units. Locate these items at any Medical Dispenser.
Cryopod Upgrade
Due to popular demand, the Cryopod now accomodates 4 more pages or 20 more pods for your reserves.

-New Medical Team (Recon Class) team member given on "Lock & Load"
