Hi folks,
I've updated the game with a small patch today. First, I tracked down a bug that could still cause escort ships to drift away after losing their capital ship.
Second, I balanced out Corvettes and Frigates to have a minimum possible turning speed - Corvettes a bit faster than Frigates. This is a bonus to help them play the roles that I envisioned for them to be screening ships. I noticed that a lot of times these escort vessels could have a really hard time making the turns they needed to make to keep in escort range. So the end result is that you'll see the ships moving at the same speed they normally would, but regardless of how slow or fast they are, they'll have a minimum turning speed to keep them behaving properly.
This will patch into 1.2 on your end. I don't update the version number for small fixes like this anymore because updating the version number causes your AppData folder to be rebuilt, and that can cause headaches for some users who have restricted permissions on their systems. I'll only be updating the version number on your end when I need to add new content.
