We've added backwards compatibility for previous default branch saves. Since we're still testing this feature, we highly recommend making a backup of your save before loading it in the beta branch. While we couldn't find any errors on our side, experience has shown that you guys are way better at finding issues like that, so we want to be sure that no data is lost when loading your old saves. In order to guarantee that, a backup is made of every file that needs conversion.
Gameplay
- Removed collaboration component since Alliances replace this functionality
- Added experimental backwards compatibility for saves created in the beta branch
- A backup of the sector file will be created before converting, so no data will be lost if the conversion fails
- Please report conversion errors in the forum or via the bugtracker so we can fix them!
- Independent turrets now get their targets assigned by the server and no longer search them on the client
- Mining and Salvaging AI commands now no longer continue when there was a player entering the ship
Misc
- Broken scripts are removed from scriptable objects on when loaded from database
UI
- Trading routes tab is disabled when trading module doesn't support it
- Added a Beta Branch notification when starting the game
Scripting API
- Added a new "onPlanModifiedByBuilding" callback for when the Plan component is modified through building
