New Ghost and Replay System
We have rebuilt the ghost system from the ground up. It's now possible to download and compete against specific ghosts, and additionally you can also watch downloaded ghosts as a replay.
The eye icon indicates if a ghost is downloaded and displayed. Click it to toggle the visibility of the corresponding ghost. The "Replay" symbol can be used to watch that individual replay.
Leaderboard reset
Due to changes to the ghost system, all local records and ghosts were deleted and all leaderboard entries were removed. Your XP and Player Level are NOT affected!
Ship customization reset
Due to changes to the ship customization system, your space ship customization has been reset to the default. Your unlocked ship parts are NOT affected and can be used immediately!

Quick little hotfix to rebalance healing cards as well as adding in a new card : The Lone Wizard. This unique card increases chance to heal by 15%. Additionally I fixed a bug where unique item icons were not being saved between crawls and became a white square.
Although any unique item you find from now on will be alright, old uniques will still have a white icon. If this bothers you please join our Discord and I will fix your save file for you!

Good morning! This is a small patch that addresses some oversights with the new input system. Thank you for your reports!
Input: - The cutscene pause menu is no longer hardcoded to the old input system, so it should now work with the new input system as well. - Fixed an issue where choosing to skip a cutscene would sometimes not automatically unpause the game. - Fixed controllers mapping Pause to the "Select" button by default, it should now default to "Start" with "Select" as a secondary button. - Removed empty placeholder slots in the default settings for unknown controllers that may have been preventing them from being able to rebind.
TWEAK: NEZ option was set for missile targets and other target types; it should be allowed for aircraft targets only TWEAK: Post refuel throttle FIXED: Added sub-type filter to adding ground unit FIXED: Pier and Docks Orientation and Size Lost on Reload FIXED: Unable to Export Carrier Strike Group FIXED: #14830: DLZ for SAM against surface targets <-- This will also require some DB tweaks to fully resolve. Boost-coast SAMs are now fired on a pseudo-ballistic trajectory (most efficient) when employed against surface targets. ADDED: Ability to add an aircraft to host unit through "Air Ops" window ADDED: Blacklisted process notification is listed into the exception log FIXED: ESM detection against an OTH sensor prevents other potential detections FIXED: Error in DB with Surf TargetTrainingShip FIXED: Exception when cloning an aircraft with customized air/dock facilities FIXED: Random UI exception was preventing correct rendering of "Doctrine" window FIXED: Cargo mission aircraft overshooting area FIXED: [B1274.1] ToT(DF-21B+Bombers+Carrier Wing) Error while selecting time for ToT FIXED: Scan Eagle, Unable to Launch from Ships
Includes the new v496 release of the DB3000 and CWDB databases.
