Well hello starchasers! It's been a hot stellar minute, hasn't it? Did you think we were just going to leave you forever? We're not THAT kind of Early Access game, rest assured. But after breaking my soul and back to get Faces In The Fog out I wanted to take it slow on these upcoming updates. You know how it is, you pump out a huge amount of quests and nonsense and maybe you want to spend some time with your wife, cats, and the jerky they're determined to steal.

Some of this was originally going to be kept separate from the main build until it was time for our big milestone update, but I'm a generous soul. That's what my therapist tells me at least. Let's get into it! [h1]UPDATE HIGHLIGHTS:[/h1] Cockpits! Cockpits now have their real textures and UI elements implemented. Different manufactures have styles and ways they'll set various cockpits up: Some are more detailed and more informative than others, and many come with an onboard ship radar.

[previewyoutube=On2BxbBzTAA;full][/previewyoutube] There's also border control on star systems now. Go too far out and Stuff might begin to happen. This is just the first pass of this system now, mind you. Future updates will add more hazards and more Stuff that will Happen. [previewyoutube=ujoH-QRDAkk;full][/previewyoutube] And there's a whole smattering of UI improvements. Star systems now display their current level, keybinds now give a description of what they do (even when it's obvious) and posters for non-hazard bounties have brand new graphics and icons.

[*] Added diegetic UI elements for all cockpits for all flyable ships in game. This includes elements like a working ship radar and such. [*] Added a freelook key to your ship’s cockpit. [*] Added border control: Go too far outside of the borders of known space, and you’ll encounter a lot of uncleared anomalies that will quickly make short work of you. No you can’t defeat them: you’re basically asking if you could assassinate a tidal wave. [*] System readouts now display the star system’s current level (including if it’s affected by storms). [*] Keybinds in the menu now have a description when moused over. [*] Non-hazard bounties now have unique posters for each character.
