Release notes 

Ares 0.A improves performance while also adding new features and fixing bugs. Big logics like Firestorm Walls and Solid Buildings were reworked in large parts, and optimized for speed, which should be observable. Several bugs have been fixed, like players not being able to change home airport for aircraft, or the exploits related to selling construction yards.
