This one's a good one:

Other ships have been added to the game! Every nation now has a number of merchant ships travelling around the world, and your missions now revolve around finding and sinking rival nations' shipping. No warships implemented yet but they aren't far off. Every ship in the game is named after an actual cold war merchant ship belonging one of nine nations - though the lists aren't that long yet so there might be a few repeats. Not every nation has it's own name file yet (so Australian ships use British names, for example).
A game guide/manual is included in the zip file, 'guide.txt'. Contains very detailed information on how everything works, including a much better write up on the nuclear reactors and a description of how the crew management system works.
The tactical map now shows more information and allows you to identify and target nearby ships. The tactical map also now shows any torpedoes launched by your sub.
Changed the power systems control panel to more accurately and clearly show the power consumption of each subsystem.
A second type of mission is now in the game, involving hunting down and sinking a strategically significant enemy ship. The radio is slightly more functional now too.
A few more nations and cities added.
A couple of secret easter eggs have been added
A lot of bugs relating to crossing the international date line have been fixed. Maps now display cities and targets correctly across the date line. Also, it's now possible to sail under the arctic ice and across to the other side of the globe.

Really happy with how the game's taking shape now. As always I appreciate all feedback

Hope you guys enjoy it!
