BTW, how the textures are automatically pre-viewed in the skin selection screen is an absolutely elegant job, @Sandrem

As promised, 2 more skins: The Gamma Squadron dark grey/white stripes and the white TIE Bomber from the Tomax Bren's Scimitar Assault Wing "White Death" .
Plus, the second version of my Vult Skerris' TIE Interceptor (seen in Rebels).
@Sandrem,
Full disclosure, I have enjoyed your game quite a bit for quite a while and as of yet have not supported you on Patron, I owe you. That said, with all this social distancing going on it is a perfect time to launch your online version. I would think that if you posted a cash goal you might get it.
I am a novice at game creation, aka never done it, but I suppose the money is for both developer compensation, and a monthly fee to host the game on a server somewhere. Is that right? What do you think you would need?

When online multiplayer will be live, I will need to pay for Unity's matchmaking service, based on amount of traffic.

Okay, How much money will you need to raise to make an online version possible? Or is your plan to charge a monthly fee for use? Either way, if you let us know your plan then I am sure the community would help.
OK, added the Royal TIE Interceptor skin. Those who can't wait for the next update, just get the skins here and put them in the ...\Fly Casual\Customizable\Ship Skins\ folder.
Is anyone else having crashing issues after the first engagement?

Yeah, crashing a lot on android. Has been stable on PC for me so far though.

If you want errors to be fixed - report them with description of last actions and screenshots.

Fair point. I'll try to remember what the last action was next time.
That’s freaking dope! Thanks for all that you do!

Had a crash when loading the opposing team, which was a random.
I started back up, loaded my list again, and played a match, so my team was stable.
I plan to release version 1.0 in the end of this month. Main new features are ready, I plan to spend a week or two for bugfixing now.
What's new:
* New cards: Discord Missiles (Buzz Droid Swarm), Cluster Mines, Ion Bombs.
* New "Space station" room instead of "Just table in space" (with Easter Egg - who will find it?).
* Tallon Rolls allows to select final position.
* If you try to skip attack, but there are targets available - you will see dialog window to confirm this.
* Gas Clouds 4-6.
* Faster (and more advanced) AI planning.
* A lot of new skins.
* When you copy a ship, unique cards are not copied, if limit is exceeded.
* Large ship setup rule.
* Dials are visible in squad builder.
* All ships have correct dial tooltip during battle.
* Wrong final position of ships due to low framerate is fixed.
* Extra option: Show Maneuver Prediction
* Fixes for FE images of cards.
Meanwhile, you can try current state of dev-build of 1.0 if you can build game from sources or are supporting me on Patreon:

I plan to add tips to loading screen of Fly Casual. Some of them will be with information about controls (how to rotate ship, how to measure distance etc), some of them will be about general strategy, maybe something funny.
Example:

I need you ideas - what tips can I add here.
Keep in mind, that this screen will be shown only for ~4 seconds, so tips should be short.
Don't worry: I will allow to disable these tips in options to load battle without this few-seconds delay.
P.S. Version 1.0 will be released in the end of whis week
Edited by SandremRight-clicking a potential target to show the range, bullseye, etc is a good tip.
A disclaimer that the dice aren't fair in this game. JUST KIDDING!!!!!!!!!!

Can the tips be specific to the device on which your are playing (ie Mobile vs laptop)? I'd like to see mobile specific tips because that is how I use Fly Casual.

Yes, they can be device-specific.
