Update 0.5.3.34

Smarter AI soldiers, improved mission balancing rules and better visuals. Introducing the minor update with a wide list of improvements based on your feedback!

We have taught the soldiers in your squad to keep an even closer eye on dangerous directions and to expect the enemy to return from cover longer. Outsmarting AI soldiers has become noticeably more difficult. They have also learned to use the trenches you dug.

You will also be able to fight with greater comfort and enjoy the results - now every bullet, shell or thrown explosive affects the bodies of fallen soldiers. Bodies and their parts scatter depending on the received impulse.

And so that you don't miss out on this beauty, we have reduced the visual recoil of weapons with aperture sights.

Also, as you requested, we’ve changed our approach to balancing missions and have decided not to use the capture time of strategic points for this.

Take a look at the full list of improvements - we tried our best!
