added//new stuff - A Banshee xeno has been added who show up if you spend a long time in a sector. Busting them uses up 25% of your Energy so you'll want to avoid them. There's also a Log Message which you unlock when busting them. - Added 2 new Apples: Stat and Anomaly_7.

removed//misc changes - Sector 8 - Anomaly: The screen effect is now more transparent (so less epilepsy inducing). - Data Drones: They no longer emit a light after they've been hacked. - Action - Exterminatus: This now also destroys Hackable rooms and Data Drones.

added//bug fixes - Rewards - Fresh Apple: The reward would only trigger once you got an Apple after starting a new game. - Action - Deputise Cadet: It could trigger on a Lift Convict instead of a regular Convict. - Action - Parasites: Duplicating a Bubble Xeno while it was abducting a Convict could cause a crash. - Action - Exterminatus: The explosions could cause a crash if colliding with an active Data Drone. - Gadget - Electro Strikes: When combined with the Critical Stacks meta it could create a hell of a lot lightning late-game.
