It seems a few of you guys are determined to break it and so here's some more bug fixes to stop you! Did a little work on the Fleet Config screen also, neatening up the UI elements and adding ship config previews to make life a little easier picking ships for your fleet.
We also continued rounding off the edges as per your feedback, special thanks to Staalby for really getting into it.
Work will start on UPDATE 8 soon which is a pass at tactical and will include more ships and maps. Hope you're all enjoying the festive period!

The fleet config screen doesn't look quite so raw anymore as it gets some usability tweaks, for example; you can mouseover the module icons to get a tooltip with the important stats.
