Repeated intro

Hello all, I rotate around making my games in my free time and this is the first update I am proud of and I feel as though my game is really coming along. I hope it is to your enjoyment also. I tidied up some of the campaign map to make it more comprehensible. I made a few more notifications to clarify what is happening to the player. I made the Nebula and Asteroid maps nicer and collision detection with asteroids. The AI is smarter and has nicer movement. MOST IMPORTANTLY ---SHIELDS--- The Shields are on the front of the ship not all round, so the direction you point your ship is important. Hit the enemy from the side for maximum damage. Shields change in colour depending on damage, Blue, Green and Red. Formations are still smoother also. I hope you enjoy, I think my next build in a month or so will take us out of early access, so I will bring up the price a dollar or two but I have a few sales coming. I would love to see game feedback and suggestions for growing the game. Large 3d Napoleonic fleet battles in space is getting better and better. Your hobbyist indie game developer Eoin
