Version 1.0.9 is here!

[AlbertoC]

Today's the time for a new big update for Gladius.

This time we are adding a much requested feature: keyboard hotkeys! You can read the full list of hotkeys down below.

We are also including a new special screen shake effect when a drop pod is landing, plus many bug fixes and balance improvements.

This update has been fine tuned and tested during a few days beta, so we'd like to thank everyone who took part in it. Please let us know if you have any feedback: your suggestions are always very handy in helping us improving the game.

You can download it from the Members' Area.

keyboard hotkeys!
* Q Unit ability 1
* W Unit ability 2
* A Unit ability 6
* S Unit ability 7
* D Unit ability 8
* no Z

I hoped we could remap the ZQSD keys to move the screen (WASD for non french), as we must often use the [Tab] key near.
EDIT: that's not in the Configuration file
