Gratuitous Space Battles Update Released

Product Update - Valve

Nov 30, 2010

An update for Gratuitous Space Battles has been released. The update will be applied automatically when your Steam client is restarted. The major changes include:

Major rewrite of tons of areas to reduce memory usage and squash lots of small memory leaks.
Tractor beam turrets are no longer drawn when a ship should appear cloaked.
Limpet launchers and Plasmas are now fired from the correct position when placed in multiple-hardpoint slots.
Fixed a few minor miscalculations that meant ship damage looked (purely visually) like it was being repaired faster than it actually was, especially when cloaked.
When you leave the ship design screen, any open module stat comparison windows are now closed.
Some playbalance tweaks
Imperial fighters with tiny engine glows (also a nomad fighter) now no longer get drawn when the parent ship is docked at a carrier.
Added post-battle stats summary popup dialog.
