The Beta 1.5.3 Update has added a few Quality of Life features like the scrap from, for easy scrapping of mass items in players inventory. Powerup functionality has been added with 4 powerups to find. Some visual updates, and a bunch of bug fixes with 2 long term bugs finally fixed. Please note: it is possible Controller functionality has broken with this update, Which I am unsure why it has done so as nothing has changed at all in terms of the controller code. If it has happened to be broken, it will be priority fix for next update. These features are in preperation for the full release most likely next major update. Which will focus on adding Semi Mod support. Thank You All.
