This is a patch release, to fix issues reported in v0.43. Thank you to everyone who sent in feedback!
Gameplay:
Most AA guns have been improved, in particular getting longer range.
Most aircraft have been tweaked, largely to slow them down.
Several changes to the mission "Lighting a Candle":
1. The treasure now spawns correctly.
2. The Type 1934 destroyer has less armor.
3. Some guaranteed health drops have been added.
All cruisers have slightly more HP. All battleships have slightly more HP and more displacement.
It should now be easier to pick up small guns, such as the Oerlikon, in the ship designer.
New spotlights with red/green/blue colors
The threshold for the "take big damage" achievement has been changed from 2x max health to 4x
Ships with lots of different weapon types installed can now see all of those types, instead of some of them getting arbitrarily cut off in the combat HUD.
Improved performance when calculating firing angles in the ship designer.
The mission "Pillars of Heracles" now starts with a 5minute timer, instead of a 10-minute timer. However, 10 seconds are gained per target destroyed.
