Bug fix release - 0.8.8

This release adds several new features, including AI support for reverse thrusters, a "Buy All" button in the trading panel, and two new ships (the Headhunter heavy interceptor, and the pirate Modified Argosy). It also fixes several bugs, including:

  • Various bugs when the first ship in your ships list is not usable as a flagship (absent, parked, disabled, or a fighter).
  • Possible crash if missions fail while taking off due to lack of cargo space.
  • Frame rate regulation on Windows should also be improved.

As always, this release will start out as an opt-in beta; in the Steam client you can go to Endless Sky -> Properties -> Betas and select "beta" from the drop-down menu to test it. Please report the results of your testing here, and thank you to all of you who have submitted bug reports!
