New map! Woodlands!

One of the community's most commonly requested feature has been to add a new map to the game. While the "Desert Trap" level surely plays pretty good, I agreed that it's time to add some variation. Both when it comes to map layout and visuals. I'm happy to finally announce "Woodlands"! This beautiful lush landscape stretches 6 x 7 kilometers, which is approximately 4 times the size of the Desert Trap map. In a map this big, things like radar coverage and positioning becomes even more important than before. Also be careful with your afterburner fuel. It's a pretty long way home if you run out of juice on the other end of the battlefield.

Woodlands should be considered "beta" meaning it's relatively untested. Please let me know what your think about it. Looking forward to hearing your feedback!

Another requested feature is having the ability to distinguish different kinds of aircraft on the minimap. This is now implemented, and there are six different minimap icon representing the current six different aircraft types.

We have been running regular community event where we crank up the XP income with a +10% modifier for a few hours. While this is great for newer players, there was not that much in it for more experienced players who already have all unlocks. Starting today though, we have the option to make events where you get extra Wings for each match, making it a little easier to afford those hard-to-get customizations.

1.0.9
* Added new map: "Woodlands".
* Aircraft icons on the minimap are now differently looking for different kinds of aircraft.
* Added support for community events with extra Wing rewards.
* Su-27 slow speed turning power slightly increased.
