changedOn the face of it, this is a minor maintenance release. Behind the scenes, however, this version includes preliminary groundwork for the (tentatively-named) “ Galactic Entertainment Network ” (GEN), a way to collect and organize recordings of the “best” missions from each day, compile them in a “highlight reel” video, and broadcast them across the galaxy (well, on YouTube at least).

changedDetails have not been finalized yet (e.g., which missions will be eligible for recording, the criteria for “best”, the number and frequency of video postings, any rewards, etc.). The intention is to be able to eventually watch some fun and entertaining mission snapshots (e.g., “epic” waves, skillful dodging, near-death experiences) and side-by-side comparisons of certain competitive missions (e.g., quarterfinals, semifinals, and finals of Galactic Cup).

addedAnother small but important change is that “Key Rush” missions are now considered "completed” even if they are surrendered/lost (so that 100% completion remains possible). To support this change, all Key Rush mission histories that were either lost or surrendered have been deleted in v.143.2 so that they can now be flown again.
