[h1]General Commentary[/h1]
We pushed another mini patch out last week, here are the belated notes. [i]"You keep saying mini patch, I'm not sure you know what that means."[/i]
[h2]New Items[/h2]
[list]
[*] Added a visual pop-up when colonists drop off resources
[*] Additional SFX for resource gathering (these are still univeral, but we'll be moving to localized sounds asap)
[*] Buildings are now visible as soon as any tile is discovered, this should address those issues with the FoW
[*] Added hover text for the Destroy button to avoid Players making a mistake
[/list]
[h2]Bug Fixes[/h2]
[list]
[*] Some typo fixes.
[*] Resource capacity is no longer limited and can go much higher

[*] Some units are not selected when inside a click & drag selection under different camera angles
[*] User can select unit with click & drag selection only when the entire model is inside a selection box
[*] Player counter on Colony server shows different number of active and registered players than the actual in-game number
