Stable release 0.9.2 [beta]

This is a "stable" release, focusing on bug fixes, polish, and usability rather than on bigger changes to the game engine and content. After folks in the "beta" branch have had a week or two to test it, this release will be pushed out to all players. Changes include:

  • Tooltips for all ship and outfit attributes.
  • Confirmation dialog if taking off will force you to sell something.
  • Subtle blue background haze to make the star field less boring.
  • You can now recharge shields while on an uninhabited planet.
  • Rebalanced the new Hai outfits.
  • Gave all missiles mass so you can't store infinite numbers in cargo.
  • Three "previous" saved games are now automatically stored as backups.

Bug fixes include:

  • Fixed the crash when holding the jump key while jumping.
  • If excess outfit cargo is sold when you take off, you are now properly paid.
  • Fixed the escort icon merging code that was broken on some OSes.

There are many other changes, as well. For a complete list, see the changelog.
