Alpha 7.2.0 1337

Im folgenden ist das Changelog der Alpha-Version 7.2.0 Build 1337 zu finden. Die Version wurde am 08.11.2017 veröffentlicht. Es handelt sich bereits um das zweite Minor-Release innerhalb von weniger als einem Monat nach Veröffentlichung der Version Alpha 7.

## Changelog

With Alpha 7.2 we updated to a new game engine version (Unity 2017) and we made major adjustments in the new tutorial. The latter should solve a lot of issues with the game progress.

Concerning the Tutorial: It currently ends “in space”. This is intentional, but rest assured we will continue and expand the tutorial in the next major update. Until then, please, even if you are an experienced player, review the tutorial and write us your feedback! Have a closer look if we need to add or adjust information given, like tips, key combos and stuff. Furthermore, thanks to all the contributors, helping with the grammar and spelling checks so far. If the Alpha 7.2 version of the tutorial passes your review, we will lock down the text and start to integrate all the other languages over the next weeks.

Of course, as with each update, we also added several refinements, changes and additions to gameplay, features and handling and even new blueprint prefabs, an EAH update and more.
