Ascii Sector 0.6 Released!
Version 0.6 of Privateer: Ascii Sector has been released with a round of new bugfixes and gameplay tweaks. The biggest addition is ship-to-ship docking and boarding. This new feature looks really cool and expands on what individual game characters are able to do. A Centurion is shown grappling a Dralthi below. Download the game here.
- Fixed bug with "food stores destroyed" commodity event that would affect the price of all commodities on the base.
- Fixed bug with some commodity events causing the bartender to freeze the game when trying to tell you about them (specifically, commodity events that have a character's name in them).

Making the Game: WCU Map & Privateer 3
For our final Visio file, here's a real prize: an updated version of the Wing Commander Universe map--Captain Johnny has added the new sector which had been planned as the setting as Privateer 3. The most interesting part is that he put it exactly where we fans later placed the Landreich Sector. Great minds...
These updates are thanks to John "Captain Johnny" Guentzel, who provided several CD image archives of material used by the Wing Commander Prophecy development team!
Please note that the "Download" link points to an older-style Visio file; these do not open in Microsoft's current Visio viewer. We have converted the VSD into a graphic which can be viewed by clicking on the document thumbnail.
