It probably sounds like I've been away an awful lot recently, but I've got a proper holiday booked this time. I'm over in Istanbul from Sunday to Wednesday evening to check out a bit of Turkey, so I won't be around during that period.
I was hoping to release Build V8.2 today but neither the guy carving up the UFO into sections and the guy doing the spritesheet processing for all of the renders has got back to me, so I can't. It's a bit of a shame as it's not far from being done (in both cases it'd only take an hour or so to put the files in game) but I'm not going to release the new build without its two crown jewels. I did spend all day assembling the Research tree and writing Xenopedia entries though, so at least that's all done now!
