MAIN CHANGES
There aren’t many new features in this update, however it includes necessary technical additions in order to debug lost profiles. Just about the only noteworthy addition is that you can now drag-and-drop mission slots to copy their contents (try it out, it may be buggy). Due to popular (?) demand, the Christmas music and graphics have been preserved until the next update.
Bug/Idea medals will be awarded later in the day. Your medal cannot be awarded if your in-game callsign doesn’t match your forum name (send it to me in a private message).
COMPATIBILITY
You will lose:
- any in-mission progress
- any menu options you have configured

BACKUPS
You are reminded that during Early Access you are responsible for backing up your own progress. Make a copy of everything under C:\ProgramData\InterAction studios\CIU
(including all sub-folders). Never rename files or move them from one version folder to another. Simply make a copy and then later put it back exactly where you found it.
