Interesting that the upcoming update has the start of a full scripting capability. Will mostly have a direct impact on scenario designers. But players will see an indirect impact from better and more dynamic scenarios. I always had hoped that someone would do this for Harpoon someday...I guess that is moot now...

I just wish they would release the darned update already. They have been teasing it for a couple weeks now.

While I share your desire to have the update, there's a
lot of changes in there, so I can understand why the developers want to make sure they work.
No issue with taking the time it needs, but they have been saying for a few weeks that its right around the corner. I have noticed that since they launched on Steam, they don't do any more smaller public beta updates. I think they have gotten stuck in that Matrix/Steam production loop I see a lot of Matrix-affiliated developers hint at.
It seems that Matrix hits bottlenecks where developers can't get their patches launched in a timely manner. I don't know if its Matrix or if the Steam platform has something to do with it.
