Major Texture Pack Revision.
----------------------------
This update contains a major texture pack revision that will change textures on objects created by previous save games. Starting a "NEW GAME" is recommended for the intended sandbox game experience in development.

New Ship: Storm Cutter

The Storm Cutter is a concept rogue utility ship being considered for a pivotal role in game lore once quest driven gameplay is established. The current Storm Cutter was created using slight modifications and kitbash editing to an existing art asset that fits the desired style.
The Storm Cutter was added in this update in celebration of the 0.3.0.0 milestone.
