Paul,

Again Thank You for the update...

I see the type 1, 2, 3, 4 in the expendibles chart... but when I load the rack, it still shows as Enlarged-3rrTS instead of Type 1.

And all of the current missile types are speed 26 effective with speed 32 prop modules... not speed 24...

Best Regards,

Barry

Barry,

Sorry, if it is not clear below. I have not had time to work on switching the way definitions are shown in drone/missile rack. Hopefully, I will be able to look into this for the next update. 

I will fix the effective speed of the modules in the next update.

I forgot to mention there is a little quirk with #15. The POT/POS counters for saved games will be upside down.

Paul,

Thanks for the reply.  Brook was asking if the update would affect any of his saved games.

Other than the POT/POS minor annoyance, no.

Paul,

It looks like the client is totally broken now...

I made the mistake of re-booting my computer.

I know this is rev 4.072, but in my about text it's showing me at
4.071...

Lots of other people are having issues too.

I haven't seen it yet. I will try the client under Windows to see if it is platform specific.

Paul,

I'm back on line now...

Found the problem it is related to the JVM. If you are running Java 1.5 then it chokes on the new code. I will fix this and release an update tonight.
