    Survival Mode Beta was heavily modified to increase difficulty based on player feedback:
    -Map has less resources for player base, forcing players to work harder to
    fortify their base
    -Additional wave added at 90 minute mark
    -Wave at 80 minutes now includes even more troops for Harkonnen and
    Emperor factions
    -Harvester and Carryall replacements are cutoff at 80 minutes

    -Enhanced AI have been implemented for house Ordos, significantly
    increasing the rate of troop production (AI provided courtesy of Luminar)

    New content was added to the Rise Of The Mercenaries campaign:
    -4 new music tracks: New Beginning (originally titled Ben Gess 2), House
    Corrino,Mekanikz Tweek and Misuse Of Force (originally titled Misuse).
    Credit to DJCID for the first 3 tracks and Kevin MacLeod for Misuse.
    -Mission 2 was added. This is the first release of mission 2, and should any
    bugs be encountered please report them.

    Debug Menu was added to the ingame options:
    -Allows you to switch houses ingame, allowing easy AI debuging and testing
    -Allows easy way to quit
    -Provides a method to switch difficulty during gameplay
    -Option to play as sandworm color and change sandworm frequency
    in skirmish (requires mission restart)

    The update program has also been configured to automatically detect resolution settings.
    I have included both the regular update and the updated combined update below. If you have no idea which update to install, choose the combined update.
