    This includes a number of additional fixes, especially on stability, and ongoing clean up and polish.

    I'll be starting work on comprehensive build notes, as this build may get promoted to stable if all goes well.

    Thanks all!

    Sure.
    Although I haven't played much beyond G.W. lately so I'll probably be destroyed faster than usual.

    Nukes and comm explosions still give off the red and blue glowies on my side btw, so I assume it's a problem with my computer?

    Also, boom bots still deal absolutely no damage.
    I don't mean they deal little damage, no. They deal 0 damage.

    Those don't even look like they're rendering correctly. Try adjusting your graphics settings - try uber and try low to see how the rendering changes. But that's not at all how they should look when rendered correctly.

    To be safe I tried it on all settings (res scaling at 100%)
    These were the results:

    Low: Same effect, only the circle was white instead of blue.
    Medium: Same effect as the picture shown in my first post.
    High: Same effect as the picture shown in my first post.
    Uber: Same effect as the picture shown in my first post.
    Also to be thorough I tested it on 175% scaling, much to my dismay nothing changed.

    I'm sure you've posted it, but what's your video card again? And graphics driver version? I did see this once, but both my work ATI machine and home Nvidia machine never look like what you're seeing, so that might help pin down what's having problem rendering those effects.

    Video card is an AMD Radeon HD 7350
    I'm not sure what my driver version is. Or rather which one I provide, so I attached the DxDiag.

    Might want to end the quote chain folks before it gets any more confusing.

    That's a stingray missile. I don't think that it should reach halfway across the planet.

    ok, here's some screenies:

    First off, the commander appears on the planet when the drop pod begins its descent, not after.

    The stingray appears to have AMAZING range (I love it!)....unfortunately, I couldn't manually attack things with it. It was all automatic. I'll also point out that my leviathans couldn't fire that far.

    The missile is the stingray's shot, the stingrays are on the right in the lake.

    Love the new icons for commands :D I also see you changed the end-game screen too.

    Bomb bots deal ZERO damage. wtf.

    As expected SDL2 resolved issue with borders when Windows Aero disabled (PA#3230). :)
