Changes

The 1.8 series opened with the complete removal of [[DELIVERATOR]] and its replacement by [[KOURIER]]. With this new infrastructure in place, many new missions were released, and large-scale combat was revamped with Border Skirmish and Hive changes. Other notable changes include the partial opening of the game's LUA scripting interface and the release and/or incorporation of many user-created interface plugins. Graphically, the game got a major boost when the "Super High" background rendering mode was added. Finally, the developers partnered with an as-of-yet unnamed third-party corporation TeamSpeak to add a long-requested feature to Vendetta Online: voice chat.
