addedThe Options menu now has a Gamepad section which has several settings... - Stick Deadzone: Adjusts the deadzone threshold for the analogue stick (useful for if you have stick-drift). - Move Speed: Adjusts the base movement speed of the cursor. - Left Trigger Speed: Adjusts the cursor speed modifier when holding the Left Trigger/Shoulder. - Right Trigger Speed: Adjusts the cursor speed modifier when holding the Right Trigger/Shoulder.
added//misc changes - Meta Tree: Some of the top-left and bottom-left Meta Perk positions have been swapped around so they are grouped with similar types. - Log - Xenosensory Initiation: The wording has been tweaked so it's clearer you just need to hover the cursor over Xenos to automatically bust them (ie no clicking needed). - You can now also press the Space Bar to open/close the Options menu. - The different game Grind levels now have their own separate Speedrun leaderboards. - Pong Apple: The hint now shows as "67>=" (instead of just "67" so you don't think it requires the exact number) - The position of the High Score and Speedrun buttons have swapped places (since you're more likely to look at the High Score one). - Action - Prioritised Convict: This now also affects Convict Lifts.
added//bug fixes - Achievements - Promotion Meeting / Director Meeting: If these didn't trigger at the intended count then you would need start a new game to try again. - Starting a new game wasn't resetting the Meta Tree scroll position. - The Giga Xeno could cause a crash if its captive was killed. - Sector 3 - Anomaly: Spawned clones weren't using their parent's Gold/Priority/Giga status. - The Options menu title was incorrectly called "Settings". - Apple End scene: There was a rare chance of a crash.
