Bug Fixes
---------

FIX : Flak can't be turned off in some circumstances
FIX : Bug in Mission 10
FIX : Delay when triggering virus mines
FIX : Redirected missiles not intercepted by Vipers

Can you please put an option for bigger fleets in the Battlestar Deadlock campaigns? Even if unbalanced. Just slap a warning label on it. Hate that multiplayer got it but not campaign.

I'd also really like to be able to turn engines off and stop moving. Risky but useful. Always having to move forward is annoying.

I'd like a formation lock button.

I'd like a button to hide the blue silhouette outlines. To view battlefield better.

I'd like speed controls for action phase.

I'd like a friendly fire indicator. Tell you when it happens.

I'd like vertical firing angle to be shown. Not sure why it isn't. Game only shows horizontal for some reason.

I'd also like to be able to see the firing arcs of every single weapon on the ship. Cycle through them. Range and XYZ axis.

I'd like to create a flak field on both sides. At half strength.

I'd like flak field to actually be created by the main guns and PDC's instead of just magically appearing. This issue triggers me greatly.

I'd like an enemy fleet randomizer for skirmish mode.

Valkyrie is still missing from Ghost Fleet. Big oversight.

Jupiter still can't be equipped with Mk7 Vipers. Oversight.

Still can't use Modern Ships in campaign. Disappoint.

AI friendly pilots seem to fly into Debris Mines. Bug?

Also, Mercury is underwhelming. I don't like the turret placements of the Mercury. In the show it packs a punch from the broadsides and the front side, but in the game its weapons are too focused on the front and its weak on the broadside. As for fighters, it should be better than Jupiter not the same (since there are 4 flight decks it should carry more than 2 squadrons). And its flak field is also smaller than Jupiter. This is why Mercury is a bit of a disappointment for me. I think it needs changed.
