- ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
- PROBLEMS FIXED IN THIS VERSION:
-
- - Lockups when accepting planet surrender. Limited problem happening
- only in certain machine setups and depending on game events.
-
- - Phasers that fire outside the FOV (field of view).
-
- - Lockups during door opening sequence before mission briefing. Only happens
- on certain machine setups.
-
- - Adds memory check for systems having less than 570K w/PC Speaker or
- 582K w/Sound Blaster.
-
- - When zone cannot be bombarded (because of status green or yellow), a torp
- will fire (one taken from supply) and a hit appears on the city, then the
- abort message. Should check and abort before weapon is fired.
-
- - Zone status remaining yellow even after all Krellans are gone from zone
- (data says 0 units and 0 firepower). This also caused the "Krellans in zone
- - command aborted" when attempting to bombard one of these cities.
-
- - When PltData is up on Orbit Control screen and you press the deselect ships
- button, black dots of the orbit erasure appear on the alien picture.
-
- - Also fixes the problem when you bombard a city and extra cities appear
- all over the place and the game is messed up.
