Hello starchasers! Right now I'm knee-deep in on next big update, but I've come back with a little patch for you. But I know why you're really here, you just want to see these furry bastards. [img]{STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/35321791/ad1a781a7958ef38f541687301acc47a0e92ec0e.jpg[/img] [img]{STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/35321791/9b8ce0723e937b950ab60cb7414870b456954869.jpg[/img] Now, this is going to be the last patch for this month, mostly as I hunker down and finish up everything for Faces in the Fog. You'll see various little things for this around stations now, but they're not activated or ready yet. However, some features aren't things I can just hold back once they're done, so (lucky you) a few small things here and there are launching early. Yay. [h1]UPDATE HIGHLIGHTS:[/h1] Ghost ships were due to get a retrofitting upgrade... whatever with FitF. Obviously that's been implemented so we can't just leave you waiting to get devoured by phantom freighters and spooky battleships. All ghost ships now have more attacks, more loadouts, and more surprises. Be careful.

Not all of them have it right now, but when your head is throbbing at 2AM sometimes you get the bug to just decorate a pirate cult church, you know? The Master's Ball and the Cathedral of Skies now have a ton of more detailing done up for them.

Skills now show the per-point increase (or decrease) they add before you add points, and more keybinds have been added to the game to better fit your weird playstyle.

[/list] [h2]CHANGES AND REBALANCES[/h2] [list] [*] You may see some bounty boards in various areas. These aren’t available to be activated right now, but they’re there.
