addedFollowing on from our updates to the sandbox mode in v1.0.15 , this update adds a new difficulty selector to the first two missions of the campaign. We'll be revisiting each mission and rebalancing each to provide a "Normal" and "Challenge" difficulty mode, under the assumption that the ones that don't have this selector are already in "Challenge" mode. If there's a mission you're stuck on or feel is too challenging right now, please let us know !

changedIn addition to some bug fixes and continuing the balancing theme, we've also scaled the sandbox goals and tweak the resources, as well as making security scan targets the more distinctive green colour for all targets on the lower difficulty settings. Hard & Challenge modes will still have some targets in blue, so look carefully before you close that window!
