  • The captain's log can now be cleared with F2

  • Added a pop-in camera animation for 3D interiors

  • Added a zoom-in effect for entering a 2D interface from 3D

  • When hailing other captains they'll sometimes tell you of a station nearby that they've recharged their petroop at (might come in handy)

  • Yist flowers now have a few different colours for decorative purposes when beamed down

  • Added palm trees to sandy beaches (they're pretty similar to normal trees except they don't degrade to ferns)

  • Geysers are now more common on fault lines on ice planets

  • Tidied up all the 3D airlocks

  • Added 15 more SNN headlines for late-game events

  • Added a terminal to the 3D engineering

  • Showing all signs or not is now saved to your game

  • Petroop costs more in pirate systems

  • Aligned all the search prompts to be accessible with the same button (H) for muscle-memory

  • Transmissions now show over tracked cargo

  • Tweaked something secret (maybe it won't be so secret now)

  • Tweaked wording in various places

  • Tweaked the floor of the bridge in the intro look less like a missing transparent texture

  • Slightly increased the chance of finding snowmen (vitally important)

  • 3D camera height now lerps instead of snapping

  • Prevented some duplicated transmissions

Bugs fixed in this version

  • Fixed the broken Grog headline

  • Fixed the broken Spacejack headline

  • Fixed the broken new colony headline

  • Fixed laboratories using subalt bars when the entity's science rating is maxed out

  • Fixed Ctrl+J mapping to enter in Windows

  • Fixed not getting an unhappy transmission on destroying the Monke or Ratto homeworlds

  • Fixed the missing characters at the top and bottom of a planet's atmosphere

  • Fixed entities seemingly being way too clumped up when generating a new cosmos

  • Fixed tytopops not eating enough types of tiles for them to actually be a problem (you could previous just box them in with any spare cargo which wasn't very threatening of them)

  • Fixed double spaces after ranks in conversations

  • Fixed cosmic database links at the ends of lines not having numbers
