This patch update brings in several changes:
- Bugfix for "Locate Missing Scientists" wherein the mission would start from the perspective of an external camera rather than the player cockpit.
- Enemy weapon damage has been tuned down, making the later levels (where enemy fighters have advanced AI) more forgiving.
- Saurian Raptor Elites have received a visual upgrade, looking distinct from their vanilla counterparts.
Gamepads like the Xbox controller are now partially supported. It is not recommended to use a gamepad for this game, and stick to using VR controls (which should track the rotation of your controllers whenever you grab the flightstick in-game). However the following mappings should now work for gamepads. This may be useful for players who want to map such controls to a HOTAS flightstick

Fire -> Right trigger
Fire secondary -> Right shoulder
Next Target -> Button South ("A" on Xbox)
NextIff -> Button North ("Y" on Xbox)
