Vangers: One for the Road Patch

Bugs fixed:

• An attempt to establish Internet connection with ISP via the modem on game startup. In the previous version, the game would have crashed if the connection could not have been established.
• Game crashed with the message "free mechos not found".
• Game crashed with the message "item ptr not found".
• Problems with shadow of mechos.
• Game crashed in multiplayer mode when "gethostname failed".
• The game could not have been finished successfully if all the cycles on all worlds had been closed prior to visiting Carmane.
• Beebs were not properly deducted when buying a just-built unique mechos.
• The game now determines your video configuration on startup and skips the opening animations if they can not be properly shown because of your video card or drivers. The game would have previously crashed if there had been problems with the video subsystem.
• Minor bugs fixed

New Features:

• FPS limitation has been abandoned. The game previously had a limit of 20 FPS, irrespective of computer speed. This patch carries the synchronization over to the dynamics of mechos. Now the game has a much smoother scrolling and fully uses the advantages of high-end systems. In case any problems with game speed arise, please use /t in command line, which will set the limit to 30 fps.
• In the chat the players are now marked by the color of their mechos.
• Multiplayer server can now keep logs of game sessions.
• Alternative ways to get keys to some worlds have been added.

This patch is for US and UK versions only!
