I was wondering if anybody had any information on the proposed update 1.0.2 what new features for plug in designers does it contain? Marines- do thease increase your chance of capturing ships? when is it likely to be released? will it require new templates for resources? Is Matt Burch working on it or is it a third party project? where can i find info about it?

EVO 1.0.2 is 100% pure Matt Burch. You're right about Marines - but they'll just be a new outfit type - no templates needed. For news, click on the News button at the top of the webboard, then click Upcoming, then click on EVO 1.0.2

Will it just require a new flag in the outfit type box? Also is there any other features like this I.e new outfits wepon types etc? + what are the Plug ins are being developed for use with it?
Well, let's see. Straight from Matt Burch's keyboard - info on the update (from Ambrosia's news/upcoming page):
EVO 1.0.2 status: ----------------- Things implemented or fixed: Fixed a bug that was causing turrets to be somewhat inaccurate Fixed the start-disabled flag in the govt resources so it works again Added the capability for AI ships to use afterburners Added a "Marines" outfit type for plugin developers to use AI ships can perform slightly more complex combat maneuvers Known issues being addressed: Implement a reverse-target-cycling key for convienence (shift + target key) New AI is confused by rearward attacks Beam weapons fire wrong direction (should be fixed now - testing) Can't use flët ID > 128 Mysterious or unreproducable problems to look at: Some plugins mysteriously take more memory? Some players can't hyperspace? Game crashes when recalling fighters? Game crashes when boarding a ship?
That enough for you?
