High Command has reviewed the field reports from our citizens.

Thanks to your diligence, numerous improvements to combat, base operations, and capture protocols have now been deployed. The State thanks you for your service.

[Key Updates]

CONTROL

1. Added full controller support (except haptics).

2. Added controller aim assist.

CAPTURE

1. Added new capturable enemy types: Scourgeborn Gladiator, Scourgeborn Gunfighter, Scourgeborn Musketeer, and Scourgeborn Blaster.

2. Added the ability to view prisoner attributes directly from the inventory interface.

BASE

1. Added a variety of social interactions between soldiers, including greeting, complaining, eating together, bathing together, mocking each other, apologizing, and breaking up.

2. Added the ability to adjust building height in construction mode.
