OK OK I TAKE BACK ALL MY NAGGING, ALL MY ANNOYING POSTS TOWARDS THE BLACK HAMMER BUDS AND YOU MATRIX GUYS, THANKS FOR YOUR TIME AND THE PATINCE YOU HAVE WITH US THE FANS[&o][&o][&o]

I should also add that this update includes the space and ground map editors so that you don't need to download and install them separately. It also updates part of the space map editor since the previous release. You'll still need the Java Runtime Environment to use the editors, but that's easily downloaded and installed from www.java.com.

The update should be posted later tonight.

Regards,
