Update 14 (v1.3.21412.0) Now Live

[DTG_Cryss 244]

It's a pretty mixed bag this week, with tweaks to a lot of mission content based on user feedback thus far. We've also got a hefty update to the Pro Mission Editor, with a variety of recipes being added to the sim to make creating missions just that little bit easier.

That's not all, but read on for the full patch notes.
