+Beta 54
+Summary of changes:
+
+DONE:
+
+Arm Pit Bull is more accurate.
+
+Core Viper area of effect increased.
+
+Arm Flea range increased and damage reduced.
+NOTE: This will help Fleas bring their numbers to bear better in a large group, as they're usually used.
+
+Arm and Core Deep Core Moho Mines metal cost reduced to 1/3, energy cost and build time increased 66%, and energy use almost cut in half.
+
+Arm Lemmings take less damage from other Lemmings explosions.
+NOTE: This puts Lemmings as taking 2% of the normal damage from their own blasts, which is what crawling bombs take from their own blasts. This allows them to be used in groups more effectively.
+
+Arm FatBoy and Core Morty weapon velocity increased to fix firing at less than their full ranges.
+
+Arm Fido ballistic weapon mode now has advanced artillery range and damage reduced.
+NOTE: This lets the Fidos use their secondary/ballistic weapon mode to perform in more of a light artillery role, whereas previously Arm Advanced Kbots only had heavy artillery in the form of the FatBoy.
+
+Remember that turning Fidos to On switches them to using their long-range ballistic weapon, and to attack the ground in that mode you use the D (D-Gun) button to attack, not the A (Attack) button. Turning the Fidos back to Off switches them to their closer range direct fire Gauss weapon. This lets them flexibly switch from skirmish units to a support artillery role and back again.
+
+Core Shiva cannon range increased to advanced artillery range and damage reduced.
+NOTE: This put Shivas more into a medium/heavy artillery role, where before Core Advanced Kbots only have light artillery in the form of Morties. Remember that Shivas only fire their rocket when specifically told to with the D-Gun button.
+
+Arm MERL and Core Diplomat reload and damage increased.
+NOTE: This should help MERLs and Diplomats more effectively engage heavier defensive lines.
+
+Fixed issue with the M.A.T. and the A.M.A.T. triggering a unit drop by themselves without your command.
+
+Arm and Core Commander and Decoy Commander scripts adjusted to help with units locking up and not firing sometimes.
+
+Arm Hulk and Core Envoy now use the Exploiter laser as a weapon instead of the Arm or Core Light Laser weapon.
+NOTE: As before, the laser won't fire until you have at least 4 units loaded on board to man the gun.

+Beta 55
+Summary of changes:
+
+Arm and Core Light, Medium, and EMP mines now build faster.
+
+Arm Mumbo weapon range decreased, damage increased, and area of effect increased.
+NOTE: This gives the Mumbo a semi-plasma/energy bolt kind of laser weapon which has a modest area of effect, allowing it to compete better with the Core Reaper (Which still has much better area of effect, but whose flames move more slowly and therefore are less accurate).
+
+Arm Viking and Core Cronus weapon range reduced and damage increased.
+NOTE: The range reduction will allow coastal defenses to more easily engage advanced naval units.
+
+Arm Courier and Core Emissary transportsize increased to 3 (2).
+NOTE: This allows them to carry units with a 3x3 footprint, including Samsons/Slashers, as well as bigger units like Mumbos and Reapers.
+
+Arm Hulk and Core Envoy transport capacity increased to 24 (16).
+
+Arm PACKO and Atlantis and Core SAM weapon area of effect increased.
+
+Flakker weapons tolerance increased.
+NOTE: This is to help them be more willing to take a less than perfect shot when firing at fast moving gunships up close.
+
+Arm FARK can now build:
+Arm Metal Maker
+Arm Advanced Solar
+Arm Geothermal Powerplant
+
+Bombers and advanced bombers weapons have had their area of effect reduced and damage increased. They also have a shorter attack run length.
+NOTE: This increases the damage to the target area somewhat, but lowers the width and length of the "strip" in which targets are taking damage, making them not as devastating to groups. They should also be harder to use to continuously "chain-bomb" with (Though not impossible).
+
+Arm and Core Commander and Decoy Commander scripts changed to fix their issue with locking up and not firing their regular weapons after a D-Gun shot is fired.
+
+Arm and Core Commander and Decoy Commander armor reduced to 4000 (6000).
+NOTE: This will make Commanders somewhat more vulnerable to larger level 1 groups and make reckless behavior more risky.
+
+Slowed gunships and reduced their acceleration.
+NOTE: This slows gunships down and makes them less agile, reflecting their heaviness compared to other aircraft.
+
+Lightly reduced energy cost of all aircraft.
+
+Arm Chainsaw and Core Eradicator reload and damage reduced.
+
+Increased build range of Fortification Nano Turrets to match Advanced Fortification Turrets.
+
+Arm Freedom Fighter and Core Avenger primary weapon area of effect increased.

+Beta 56
+Summary of changes:
+
+Arm Bee armor increased.
+
+Core Bladewing cost heavily reduced.
+
+Arm Razorback weapon now has a modest area of effect like the Mumbo weapon does.
+
+Core Karganeth flame weapon damage reduced to match with the reduction of other flame weapons in the Beta 55.
+
+Arm Bantha torso turn rate increased and the area of effect of its primary weapon doubled.
+
+Core Krogtaar weapon range increased 50% and damage reduced by the same margin.
+
+Arm and Core tactical nuclear silos and anti-nuke silos/units energy and build time costs cut to 50%.
+NOTE: This cuts the energy costs on tactical nuclear silos and anti-nuke silos/units while keeping their energy drain while building them the same. Previously tactical nuclear silos cost 80% of the energy and metal of a strategic nuclear silo.
+This should help tactical silos to be more accessible in the mid-game.
+
+Arm Phoenix and Tsunami and Core Hurricane and Maelstrom weapon damage increased.
+
+Arm Spider armor increased.
+
+Arm Antarion cost, firepower, and maneuverability increased.
+NOTE: This puts the Antarion at roughly 10% less cost than the Gargoyle and with similar ratios of armor vs firepower.
+
+Core Gargoyle maneuverability increased.

+Beta 57

+Core Instigator weapon damage increased but now requires energy to fire.
+
+Arm Spider maneuverability increased.
+
+Arm Mark XVII Bolo and Core Class A Heavy Yavac weapon [HELLBORE_CANNON] area of effect reduced to 384 (512).
+
+Arm Bee armor reduced and build distance increased (To help them spread out instead of clustering).
+
+Arm and Core Metal Generators costs cut in half (energy cut to 1/3), metal produced reduced to 2 (3), and can be turned on and off.
+
+NOTE: This makes Metal Generators about 50% more metal efficient than Fusions and Moho Metal Makers (For the metal spent, since Metal Generators don't use energy unless cloaking). They already closed up to take less damage like solars do, but previously didn't stop making metal when they did so ("metalmake" always produces metal, but "makesmetal" only produces when the unit is on). Now they do stop making metal when closed and can be manually toggled on or off.

+Arm and Core MRU metal production increased to 3 (1).
+
+Fixed the Core north-facing Shipyard model being about 18% bigger than the models that face the other directions.

+Beta 58
+Summary of changes:
+
+Complete build menu overhaul: Added new, bigger menus (12 units per page instead of 6), and new hotkeys, custom crafted by TA:T's own ChaoStorm! Thanks Chao!
+NOTE: There may still be some bugs, missing hot keys, etc., so let us know if you find an issue.
+
+Arm Peewee and Core A.K. speed and range increased and armor reduced.
+
+NOTE: Despite being the "standard/basic" level 1 Kbot, Peewees/A.K.s were being outperformed by most of the other Kbots in most situations, but didn't have something they were overly good at in comparison.
+
+This change has them trading armor for speed and damage for range, allowing them to close the distance to a target more quickly and come into range sooner, but at the cost of doing less damage and being easier to destroy. They should be a better overall swarm unit; light, fast, built cheaply, and destroyed easily.
+
+Arm and Core Sabotage Mine/Micro Nuke build time increased.
+NOTE: This means it will take one second for a Spy Kbot to build the micro-nuke. This is enough time to decloak to build it and have it destroy something before the spy is destroyed, but long enough that it can't be rapidly clicked on a large gantry unit and used 5 to 10 times before the spy is destroyed.
+
+Arm Rocko and Core Storm weapon area of effect reduced.
+
+Arm Janus reload and damage reduced and tolerance increased.
+
+Core Krogtaar weapon velocity increased.
+
+Core Reapers and Pyros now take half damage from [TREEBURN] and [SHRUBBURN] weapons.
+
+Arm Infiltrator and Core Parasite weapon range increased.
+
+Added anti-mine rockets to the Arm Valiant and Core Limiter.
+
+Arm Moho Twilight now has a defensive paralysis weapon.
+NOTE: The weapon is a burst of EMP grenades that spray out in a circle in random directions, hopefully paralyzing its enemies. It defaults to Return Fire, so that if enemies go by without noticing it, it won't reveal itself unnecessarily. Of course, you can set it to Fire at Will or Hold Fire, if you so choose.

+Beta 59
+Summary of changes:
+
+Arm and Core construction and advanced construction Kbots make 1/3 less energy and metal. This matches their costs being reduced by 1/3 from their original cost back in Beta 25.
+
+Arm Penetrator armor reduced by 50%, reload reduced to 2, damage roughly cut in half, and area of effect increased.
+
+NOTE: This should help balance out the Arm Penetrator as compared to the Core Banisher. The Penetrator does more damage and fires more rapidly, but has less armor and requires energy to fire. The Banisher has tracking and a much bigger blast radius and doesn't require energy to fire, but fires much more slowly and does less damage per second (though not per shot).
+
+Arm Annihilator and Core Doomsday and Gargoyle primary weapon area of effect increased.
+NOTE: These are all Tachyon weapons, so they have a bigger area of effect than a mere laser.
+
+Arm and Core Repair Nanolathe Turret metal cost reduced to 50 (130).
+
+Fixed some missing units from build menus and added Shark's Teeth and Floating Radars to Arm Beaver and Core Muskrat.
+
+All minelayers (vehicles, kbots, and ships) cost doubled.
+NOTE: Previously, minelayers had twice the build power of an equivalent construction unit and cost half as much to build, giving them four times the build power per cost of a construction unit. Now they still have double the build power, but cost the same as a construction unit, keeping them effective for assisting construction units or rapidly putting up mines and basic level 1 defenses, but as much as before.
+
+All gunships (Except the Core Krow) had their 360° firing arc reduce to the front 180°. This should help them not shoot down chasing fighters so easily.

+Arm MERL and Core Diplomat weapon velocity increased.
+
+Arm Big Bertha and Core Intimidator weapons area of effect increased and (in)accuracy reduced.

+NOTE: This helps Bees not to stack right on top of each other so much when building/repairing (Since units stacked exactly on top of each other seem to ignore area of effect damage a lot). Bees are small flying nano-drones, able to quickly bring build/repair power to bear, but also fragile and vulnerable to attack, much like nano-turrets.

+NOTE: This gives it the same kind of "pulse-laser" semi-plasma/energy bolt that the Mumbo has with a modest area of effect.
+
+Core Karganeth weapon [KARG_FLAME] damage reduced to 12 (16).
+NOTE: This reduced the flame bonus on the Karganeth from 100% to 50%, as was done to other flame units in Beta 55.
+
+Arm Bantha torso turn rate increased to 185 (100).
+Arm Bantha weapon [ARMBANTHA_FIRE] area of effect increased to 128 (64).
+

+
+Core Fortitude energy cost reduced to 91445 (182889) and build time reduced to 85263 (170526).
+
+Core Hedgehog energy cost reduced to 92321 (184642) and build time reduced to 43051 (86101).
+NOTE: This cuts the energy costs on tactical nuclear silos and anti-nuke silos/units while keeping their energy drain while building them the same. Previously tactical nuclear silos cost 80% of the energy and metal of a strategic nuclear silo.
+This should help tactical silos to be more accessible in the mid-game.
+
+Arm Phoenix and Tsunami and Core Hurricane and Maelstrom weapon [ARMADVBOMB] damage increased to 387 (335) (special damages to fighters and bombers adjusted accordingly).
+
+Arm Spider armor increased to 756 (555).

+NOTE: The reduction in weapon velocity is to help prevent shots from missing.
+
+NOTE: This puts the Antarion at roughly 10% less cost than the Gargoyle and with similar ratios of armor vs firepower.
+
+Core Gargoyle acceleration increased to 0.006 (0.004), turn rate increased to 116 (77), and armor increased to 31256 (30680).

+Arm and Core Medium Mine buildtime reduced to 450 (900).
+Arm EMP Mine and Core Neutron Mine buildtime reduced to 2769 (4500).
+Arm and Core Nuclear Mine and Underwater Nuclear Mine buildtime increased to 6923 (5400).
+NOTE: This standardizes the energy drain of building all mines to match the heavy mine (about 325 energy per second, assuming a mine layer vehicle). Previously, the light and medium mines were noticeably slower to build to keep their energy drain lower for earlier game use, but they use up such a small amount of energy over all that it doesn't matter much. Now they will build more quickly, allowing a minefield to be set up more rapidly.
+
+Arm Mumbo description changed to "Rapid Fire Pulse-Laser Tank" ("Rapid Fire Laser Tank").
+
+Arm Mumbo weapon [TAWF003_weapon] range decreased to 375 (563), damage increased to 57 (39), area of effect increased to 64 (12), rendertype set to 1 (0), explosiongaf set to RazFX2 (fx), explosionart set to exploblu (explode5), and model set to RazPlasma (Not set previously).
+
+NOTE: This gives the Mumbo a semi-plasma/energy bolt kind of laser weapon which has a modest area of effect, allowing it to compete better with the Core Reaper (Which still has much better area of effect, but whose flames move more slowly and therefore are less accurate).
+
+Arm Viking and Core Cronus weapon [TREMSHIP] range reduced to 1250 (1725) and damage increased to 794 (575).
+
+NOTE: The range reduction will allow coastal defenses to more easily engage advanced naval units.
+
+Arm Courier and Core Emissary transportsize increased to 3 (2).
+NOTE: This allows them to carry units with a 3x3 footprint, including Samsons/Slashers, as well as bigger units like Mumbos and Reapers.
+
+Arm Hulk and Core Envoy transport capacity increased to 24 (16).
+
+Arm PACKO and Atlantis and Core SAM weapon [GA2] area of effect increased to 48 (12).
+
+Arm Phalanx and Archer and Core Copperhead and Shredder weapon [ARMYORK_GUN] tolerance increased to 15000 (5000).
+Arm Flakker and Flakker NS weapon [ARMFLAK_GUN] tolerance increased to 15000 (5000).
+Core Cobra and Cobra NS weapon [CORFLAK_GUN] tolerance increased to 15000 (5000).
+
+NOTE: This is to help them be more willing to take a less than perfect shot when firing at fast moving gunships up close.
+
+Arm FARK can now build:
+Arm Metal Maker

+
+Arm Thunder attackrunlength reduced to 225 (300).
+Core Shadow attackrunlength reduced to 251 (333).
+
+Arm Thunder and Core Shadow weapon [ARMBOMB] area of effect reduced to 108 (256) and damage increased to 200 (75) (special damages to fighters and bombers adjusted accordingly).
+
+Arm Phoenix attackrunlength reduced to 225 (450).
+Core Hurricane attackrunlength reduced to 251 (502).
+
+Arm Tsunami attackrunlength reduced to 225 (566).
+Core Maelstrom attackrunlength reduced to 251 (630).
+
+Arm Phoenix and Tsunami and Core Hurricane and Maelstrom weapon [ARMADVBOMB] area of effect reduced to 162 (256) and damage increased to 335 (145) (special damages to fighters and bombers adjusted accordingly).
+
+NOTE: This increases the damage to the target area somewhat, but lowers the width and length of the "strip" in which targets are taking damage, making them not as devastating to groups. They should also be harder to use to continuously "chain-bomb" with (Though not impossible).
+
+Arm and Core Commander and Decoy Commander scripts altered to comment out a line that set a variable to 1 when using the D-Gun which prevented other weapons from firing until it was reset, which sometimes didn't happen for quite a while:
+
+AimTertiary(heading, pitch)
+{
+	signal SIG_AIM;
+	set-signal-mask SIG_AIM;
+//	Static_Var_4 = 1;
+
+NOTE: This should fix Commanders/Decoy Commanders from locking up and not firing their regular weapons after a D-Gun shot is fired.
+
+Arm and Core Commander and Decoy Commander armor reduced to 4000 (6000).
+NOTE: This will make Commanders somewhat more vulnerable to larger level 1 groups and make reckless behavior more risky.
+
+Core Cauterizer weapon [INFERNOBOMB] edge effectiveness increased to 0.5 (0.25).
+
+Increased damage from [NANOBOOM] weapon to Arm and Core Nano Turrets to 1250 (250) so they are destroyed when the platform is, just like all of the other nano turret types.
+
+Fixed some incorrect armor values on some of the advanced plant wreckages/heaps (They got missed in Beta 29 when the armor of wreckages and heaps were doubled).
+
+Arm Advanced Shipyard (North, East, and West facing) wreckages metal value reduced (They were worth about twice as much metal as they should have been).
+
+
+Arm Banshee energy cost reduced to 1470 (1676), speed reduced to 7.5 (9.576) and acceleration reduced to 0.25 (0.5).

+TA:T v2.0 Beta 54:
+
+Arm Pit Bull weapon [ARMPB_WEAPON] added the following:
+turnrate=3000;
+selfprop=1;
+guidance=1;
+tracks=1;
+
+Core Viper weapon [CORVIPE_LASER] area of effect increased to 128 (64).
+
+Arm Flea weapon [FLEA_LASER] range increased to 360 (240) and damage reduced to 8 (12).
+NOTE: This will help Fleas bring their numbers to bear better in a large group, as they're usually used.
+
+Arm and Core Deep Core Moho Mine energy cost increased to 250800 (150480), metal cost reduced to 1520 (4560), build time increased to 230887 (138532), and energy use reduced to 300 (562.5).
+NOTE: This change to Deep Core Moho Mines means that they will only cost twice the metal of a Moho Mine and twice the energy to run, while still bringing in three times as much metal. However, they have a much longer build time and higher energy cost, making it difficult to skip Moho Mines in the earlier game and use Deep Cores instead.
+
+This makes a Deep Core Moho Mine bring in about 2.3 times as much metal per metal spent (Including building energy to run it) on a 2.0 metal patch as the equivalent metal spent on energy production and Moho Metal Makers.
+
+Arm Lemming destroyed/self-destruct explosion [ARMLEMM_KILLED] special damages to Lemmings reduced to 9 (44).
+NOTE: This puts Lemmings as taking 2% of the normal damage from their own blasts, which is what crawling bombs take from their own blasts. This allows them to be used in groups more effectively.
+
+Core Morty weapon [CORE_MORT] weapon velocity increased to 400 (350).
+
+Arm FatBoy weapon [ARM_FATBOY_NOTALASER] weapon velocity increased to 400 (360).
+
+NOTE: The Core Morty and Arm FatBoy were mostly not firing at their full range due to their weapon velocity being too low for them to achieve that range.
+
+Arm Mausser and Core Navarone weapon [HOVER_ARTILLERY] weapon velocity increased to 400 (350).
+
+Arm Fido weapon [BFIDO] range increased to 1200 (780), weapon velocity increased to 400 (350), damage reduced to 267 (410), and accuracy set to 600 (0 before).
+
+NOTE: This lets the Fidos use their secondary/ballistic weapon mode perform in more of a light artillery role, whereas previously Arm Advanced Kbots only had heavy artillery in the form of the FatBoy.
+
+Remember that turning Fidos to On switches them to using their long-range ballistic weapon, and to attack the ground in that mode you use the D (D-Gun) button to attack, not the A (Attack) button. Turning the Fidos back to Off switches them to their closer range direct fire Gauss weapon. This lets them flexibly switch from skirmish units to a support artillery role and back again.
+
+Core Shiva weapon [SHIVA_CANNON] range increased to 1200 (800) and damage reduced to 334 (501).
+NOTE: This put Shivas more into a medium/heavy artillery role, where before Core Advanced Kbots only have light artillery in the form of Morties. Remember that Shivas only fire their rocket when specifically told to with the D-Gun button.
+
+Arm MERL armor increased to 2515 (2480).
+Arm MERL weapon [ARMTRUCK_ROCKET] reload increased to 18.65 (13.4) and damage increased to 2696 (1965).
+
+Core Diplomat armor reduced to 2951 (3029).
+Core Diplomat weapon [CORTRUCK_ROCKET] reload increased to 20 (14.37) and damage increased to 3147 (2203).
+NOTE: This should help MERLs and Diplomats more effectively engage heavier defensive lines.
+
+[TINY_BUILDINGEX] weapon, which is used many places, had
+commandfire=1;
+added to it. This doesn't affect the explosion, but it is also used as the fake weapon on the M.A.T. and the A.M.A.T. used to trigger unloading/dropping carried units. Without it being command fire, it sometimes fires itself, thereby dropping the units before you wanted them to be. Now they will never unload until you specifically tell them to.
+
+Added CTRL_P to the Core Venom category list.
+
+Arm Bolo wreckage size increased 50% to match the size of the unit itself.
+
+Arm and Core Commander and Decoy Commander scripts RestorePosition() sleep delay increased to 5000 (3000).
+NOTE: Hopefully this will help prevent Commanders from not firing and locking up as much.
+
+Arm Hulk weapon changed to [EXPLOITER_LASER] ([ARM_LIGHTLASER]).
+Core Envoy weapon changed to [EXPLOITER_LASER] ([CORE_LIGHTLASER]).
+NOTE: As before, the laser won't fire until you have at least 4 units loaded on board to man the gun.
