Hi,

this time we focused on improving damages feedback and readability (damages you take and damages you get). So we added lifebars on the HUD and damage indicators to make clear where the danger comes from.
We also made the Vectors invincible when spawning for a short time. This should discourage spawn-killers on corridor maps a bit.
Another important tweak is the kill difference dependant Keb reward : to summarize it, lower-score players will give you less Kebs when killing them, so you'd rather attack someone your own strength (or higher).

We hope you'll enjoy this little update,
Have fun.

Fixes and New Features

- destructible tankers, freighters and bonus drones grant Kebs (All modes except
SoloChallenge)
- Opponent lifebar added. It's displayed for a short amount of time when you hit an enemy.
- Hit feedback (Crosshair white cross) added on destructible objects, Bonus drones and traning drones. So you can make the difference between destructible and static scenery.
- Hit feedback (Crosshair white cross) turn Red when damaging yourself or team-mate.
- New damage feedback effect. The new effect indicates more clearly the direction to the aggressor. The old one was a bit unprecise and confusing so we reduced it.
- The Keb reward for a kill now depends on the relative kill-score of the belligerents. An opponent with less kills will grant you less Kebs, an opponent with more kills will grant more Kebs.
- The Keb reward is displayed on the HUD target, just below the Player's nickname.
- Impact effects played beyond the weapon's range fixed.
- Spawn sequence : 5 secs of invincibility. It's the same effect as the blue crate, you're not really invincible but damages are drastically reduced. We added a HUD indicator to let you know when it ends.
- Homing missiles unlocking : HarrierMode Strafe-boost AND JetMode barrel Roll both unlock incoming missiles. Timing is crucial : wait for the continuous warning sound to trig your action.
- Homing missiles unlocking : A succesful dodge action unlocks all locked missiles at once and starts a 3 secs period of "unlockability".
- Help Menu : HUD Help page updated.
- Death panel : wrong killer display fixed.
- Death panel : display after a switch team fixed.
- Death log : suicide displays only one PlayerName.
- Gravity loading screen : shameless kinky lens-flare added.
