addedMajor new feature in this update is the recording and playback support. This is especially helpful for players playing by email and thus not directly witnessing the actions of the other player.
addedNow, when the game is saved, the save file also includes a recording of all the events happened since the preceding game load or new game initiation.
changedWhen such a save file is loaded, the game asks whether the recording included in the save file should be replayed, and if so chosen, a playback will occur walking through the events included in the recording. After the recording is complete, the normal data load happens and play can continue as usual.
fixedThis release also includes a few minor fixes: - Fixed combat ratio showing wrong (0:1 style) when using more than one air point to increase or decrease "over zero" (i.e. from 1:1 down to 1:2 or vice versa). - Fixed purple highlights of units in combat to show correctly immediately when entering ratio dialog, not only after closing it. - Fixed spent airpoints not returning to unspent if attack cancelled after airpoint spenditure.

Currently there are no advanced playback controls (pause / continue / change speed / stop) so once started, a recording has to be played to its end.
