    Features Included By Popular Request:
    • Random map option in the lobby: pretty self-explanatory, with this option selected, the game will randomly pick a map for you.
    • Filter in the battlegroup list: you'll be able to display all your battlegroups, or to only display Breakthrough or Normal battlegroups.
    • Rebindable Situation Awareness key: for the ones who'd like to use the spacebar to... let's say... toggle the active pause, for example.
    BTW... THERE'S AN ACTIVE PAUSE BUTTON NOW:glee:
