changedThe second mission has been permanently unlocked in the demo. This will give players a chance to experience what it's like to battle a single enemy cruiser.
changedAt player request, the throttle system has had some changes. Now HOSAS players who want to use their throttle stick for forward and reverse can now do so. When the throttle stick is setup in the calibration window as -1 to 1, by setting the zero slider to the center, the negative portion of the axis will now fire the reverse thruster. This can also be used with keyboard control as long as the Throttle Locking setting is not active. The left MFD will show three red throttle marks at the bottom when the reverse thruster is engaged.
