TODAY'S BUILD

Added Previewer!

It's rough, but you can now fly spin your ship and fire the plasma weapons again! Access the previewer by clicking on "Launch" in the bottom right corner of the editor screen. Left-click fires weapons, right-click allows you to fire thrusters in the given direction you're aiming.


Added Selection To Textbox!

Gabe's spruced up the textbox to now feature a blinkity carrot, and CTRL+A "select all" functionality


Crash on Start-ups!

Some of the crash-on-startup issues we were having earlier were due to model data being loaded without converting the data to a "culture-neutral" decimal format. Our models use periods for decimals, and the files were being loaded with commas instead!

Note however that Vista/Win7 machines will still crash on start-up if Blockade Runner is unzipped into a folder that requires administrative privileges (i.e. My Documents or Program Files). Right-click BlockadeRunner.exe and run in administrative mode otherwise.

If you still experience crash on startups, please visit this thread to diagnose and report it!

Still crashes on startup and I still did everything I could. I hope this will be resolves in one of the later updates.
