Teaser: I have been hard at work on something.
The stations have been desperately empty - I had to address this before release. Why not go the extra mile and allow the player to hire crew-members! More info coming soon.
Happy new year everyone! Survival is now just a few weeks off: One last big bugfix pass, some PR, and I will release it to all of you!
Cheers
