Description

Hangers are finally implemented ( for AI ), ships capable of carrying other ships can now deploy them into battle. Ships that are damaged severely will return to the nearest hanger for repairs, and then be redeployed.

Midway through the video you will notice I've added ( a greatly exaggerated ) ship destruction effect demo. Still needs a bit of tweaking, sound effects, and enhancements, but it gives you a good idea what it may look like to take down enemy vessels.

Turret line of sight needs adjustment too, you may notice some bizarre aiming taking place from the cruiser and/or frigate.

I've begun designing the mission and campaign menu system, so I should have those up any time now. I can't wait to replace the tacky menus I have right now.

Suggestions and feedback welcome!
