Patch Notes 0.20.1

Note: This update will reset all existing bindings to default values to avoid conflicts with new generic HOTAS and generic flight pedal default bindings

Overview

• Added an overview screen as a place to easily reference control bindings
• Artillery and Autocannon weaponry adjusted to provide more distinct differences and use
• Improvements to Torpedo Launchers (installation costs, flight specs, damage)
• Kherson turrets significantly less likely to spontaneously combust when firing a launcher salvo

Added

• Default bindings for generic HOTAS controllers
• Default bindings for generic flight pedal controllers
• Controller Bindings Overview screen (For a quick glance reminder of controller bindings accessible from the pause menu during mission flights)

Changed

• Adjustments to all Artillery and Autocannon variants towards defining distinct useage of these weapons and to Artillery:
  • Artillery are long range weapons (range increases, while muzzle velocities decrease, as slot sizes go up)
  • Burst and Standard Autocannons are medium range weapons (range increases, while muzzle velocities decrease, as slot sizes go up)
  • All Autocannons have a slightly faster muzzle velocity than the equivalent it's Burst Autocannons
  • Adjusted maximum projectile range and muzzle velocities to move autocannon use from long range to medium ranged

• Torpedo Launcher (Medium):
  • Fitting Points cost changed to 61 (from 169)
  • Prestige Points cost changed to 1464 (from 1624)
  • Adjusted lock range and flight time and flight velocities

• Torpedo Launcher (Large):
  • Fitting Points cost changed to 243 (from 675)
  • Prestige Points cost changed to 5832 (from 5400)
  • Adjusted lock range and flight time and flight velocities
  • Adjusted Explosive damage values

• Torpedo Launcher (Extra Large):
  • Fitting Points cost changed to 648 (from 2250)
  • Prestige Points cost changed to 15552 (from 18000)
  • Adjusted lock range and flight time and flight velocities
  • Adjusted Explosive damage values

• The launcher status bar in the flight HUD weapons panel will no longer play out the reloading UI animation when the launcher ammo is 0, instead it will remain as an empty bar
  
• The Save/Load window in the Equipment Loadout Screen:
  • Window real-a-state has been increased and equipped items are listed with consolidated totals to ensure specification text is fully displayed
  • Players can now select Save/Load Slots 6-8 when using controller navigation

• Controller axis binding for roll is now inverted by default
  

Fixed

• Hard at work Akkadian Technicians have corrected a minor fault with the Kherson's new forward positioned keel turret mounts. In completely unrelated news, the Kherson's launchers have been repositioned further forward allowing missiles to reach their intended target that little bit quicker, oh, and-any-keel-mounted-turrets-will-no-longer-spontaneously-combust-when-firing-said-launchers
• Several side missions were not using overrides to spawn vessels and instead used the data in the mission file (therefore no random spawns!)
• Firing a secondary launcher with multiple salvo's and then immediately switching to another secondary launcher will pause the firing of the previous launcher
• Projectiles were applying the shooters velocity to position offsetting the spawn location from the muzzle (which is no longer needed due to a script execution order change in a 0.19.x change)
• Explosive Damage Enhancer Passive Module is not being applied to equipped launcher missile explosion damage
• Equipment Loadout Screen now highlights locations (Primary, Secondary, Turrets) and equipped weaponry (primary guns and Turret models) on the vessel when hovering or selecting the relevant equipment slot
• Vessel Selection Screen: Vessel loadout specification text for assigned wignmen is not updated when navigating the UI with the directional keys/buttons
• Adjusted Turret Hierarchy Order so that turrets listed in the fitting screen in a standard convention
• Muzzle Velocity and Max Range stats for projectiles do not display correct adjusted values with the Frictionless Coils Passive Module equipped
• Rate of Fire stat for projectiles do not display correct adjusted values with the Magnetic Callibration Passive Module equipped
• Using a Controller with a Throttle Axis binding assigned will set the throttle value to 0 while a Flight Group (1,2,3) button binding is held
• Help Glyphs are not using a fallback for generic controllers without glyphs, which would instead use the element descriptive name of the controller for the bound action
