Istrolid Version 38.14

This update comes with several small general fixes and a range of balance changes to weapons. These are aimed mostly at normalizing all weapon costs to $5, bringing most weapons down from $10. This should allow stacking low-angle mounts to be more competitive than before when compared to hex-modding, so that we can see more large battleships which stack forward-mounted weaponry, rather than everything being able to fire in 360 and using hexmods.

    Balance Changes
  • All weapons now cost $5.
  • Heavy PD damage 44->60, making it more a versatile PD/weapon hybrid.
  • Heavy beam 40T-30T
  • Flak range 350->360, projectil speed 30->27. This helps it slightly when retreating, but makes it easier to dodge.
  • Autocannon range 500->470 as it benefits a lot from the price drop.
  • Tesla energy use down 10%.
  • Warhead weight 5T->6T
  • Phase bomb damage 180->150. AoE 50->75. This should make them less swingy and more reliable, but they still probably need a rework.
    General fixes
  • Fixes to spelling and wording.
  • Fixes to login/password reset.
  • Clicking on links fixed
  • Copy/Paste fixed on Mac.
