While eddieb may have been spending a lot of time playing with robots recently, he has been able to patch a few new additions in to Flight Commander. The intended audience for the new version 1.3.3 patch is anyone involved in modding or creating new missions for the game.
I've released a tiny new patch adding the following:
Nav names appear if you press 'n'.
The mission editor allows you to name nav points.
New scripting functions (as requested) for giving ships more missiles/guns:
Ship_replenishMissiles(string shipid)
Ship_replenishGuns(string shipid)
You can download the patch from here. eddieb is also a programmer for NASA's Jet Propulsion Laboratory. The JPL held an Open House event last weekend showcasing their various projects, and eddieb posted this photo of himself with a robot ballet dancer. I'm not sure what use ballet dancing robots are in space, but it looks very cool anyway.
