This Patch addresses the following:
Tweaks

AI Ships have had their accuracy reduced slightly.
Controller/Joystick feel has been changed: Previously players have reported the controls for aiming were too "twitchy" even at low sensitivity settings. To correct this, the reticle (only for joystick usage) has been set to the center of the screen for a easier aiming experience. Setting a low sensitivity now correctly lowers the player rotation speed.
Reported that some players were unaware that modules could be chosen after selecting a different ship. To correct this, upon selecting a ship the available modules will flash reminding players to choose before moving to the next screen.
Added "Skip Cut Scene" button mapping in the controls map menu. To support this, a message will display when a Cut Scene can be skipped.
Bug Fixes:

Occasionally enemy AI could get stuck on objects. A fix has been implemented to address this, but will still be monitored in case further adjustment is needed.
Fixed Spelling Error for DATA THIEVES mission menu button. *facepalm

This patch addresses the noted controller function issues.

Reworked aiming function with right analogue stick. It should now be much more fluid and intuitive.
Removed Joystick "Roll Lock" modifier. To Roll your ship left or right you can now assign the appropriate buttons without the need of an additional button to do so. DEFAULT is set to Left and Right D-pad.
Note: It is suggested that you Load the DEFAULT mappings and then assign your preferred controls. Also, adjust the joystick sensitivity only in the Sensitivity panel and NOT in the calibrate panel. The sensitivity setting in the calibrate panel refers to the analogue value range of the stick and not how smooth the movement is. I suggest you leave it in the center. You may adjust at your own discretion however.
Thank you for your patients and all of your feedback. Fly Safe!
