Changes to v0.84j

... that don't fit in the release notes. This morning, I managed to get a neat feature working that was a little tricky to implement ... To make the Default and Original versions of the X-Bomber/Dai-X player ships a bit different to eachother, I took the opportunity to build in a feature that I'd wanted to put in for some time. When they are eventually used in the last episode, they fire like a giant shotgun or a grenade launcher, which is how I tried to make them work in the game until now. This mode has been updated for v0.84j and kept for the 'Original' mode Dai-X. It makes Dai-X a slightly more interesting proposition for the player because its built-in weapons have been a bit lacklustre, compared to X-Bomber, even though they are pretty close to what's in the show. My next job is to give 'Original' Dai-X a different main missile attack, where, up until the missile detonates, it will behave just like it always has, but rather than detonating into a large, glowing fireball, (it is intended to be a small tactical nuke), the new one will release some submunitions that will spiral outward and create a lot of incendiary explosions: like I remember from a great old game called Firecrow, which you can freely enjoy.
