addedOK, I'm frustrated with myself. I've been sitting on this EXP version for two years because I keep being stupid and feature creeping it. Ah but this isn't good enough, ah but that isn't good enough. A perfectionist attitude that gets us no where. Enough. EXP is stable and so much better than the old junky version that there is no reason at all to hold back the cool new stuff on the vague notion that the old build was somehow more stable or preferable.
addedSay hello to the Great Skies 2.0, faster, better, stronger. New UI layouts and flows, new looks, new effects, lots of stuff. New ship behaviours, new code, etc.
