Patch Notes:

  • Added radar (minimap) zoom. In Nebulas it always shows full size. Clicking the + and - zoom button while holding shift goes directly to max and minimum zoom level, respectively.
  • The radar now shows the actual ship image as icon, instead of a generic image. This is optional.
  • Ancient Relics and Escape Pods now always show an actual image instead of the generic blue dot.
  • Added a quest to Tinhead Workshops that rewards junk in exchange for crafting components.
  • 'Drone detonators' now set drones on "suicide mode", where they collide with their target and explode on impact.
  • Added T2 Ship Enhancement: Drones gain: +15% weapon damage and automatic targeting.
  • Increased ship enhancement slots for better visibility.
  • Drone weapon damage bonus from tacticians reduced from 8% to 7% base per tier.
  • Loot from enemies which are not special NPC characters, therefore including Hunter Fleets, is now defined by the sector level instead of the enemy level.
  • Added 'blueprint known' on ship tooltip when you already learned it.
  • Reduced the turret angle on the 'Rokkuita' from 60 to 10 degrees. Now it has -10% weapon heat generated.
  • increased chance to find fine and superior components from scavenging.
  • While in a sector controlled by an enemy('hated' doesn't count) faction, destroying one of their ships or being hostile to a station will speed up Hunter Fleet spawning by that faction. This mechanic enters a cooldown of 3 minutes after a hunter fleet spawns.
  • Improved gunners aiming when shooting at moving targets and trying to "lead shots".
  • Fixed scavenging giving blueprints you already have maxed and never dropping ammo blueprints.
  • Fixed 'bloom' setting resetting to a minimum of 15% instead of 10%.
  • Fixed 'Cargo Optimization' Skill affecting fleet ships, causing their loot to be launched into space.
  • Fixed fleet control panel opening for no reason (example: when you rename crew).
  • Fixed main menu panels (Load game, credits, perks, etc) not closing when ESC is pressed.
  • Fixed items not stacking: drone parts dropped from drones and scrap metal obtained from destroying junk.
  • Fixed BUG that would cause gunners to occasionally stop shooting at missiles or drones.
  • Fixed 'Born Leader' not applying to seats without assigned crewman.
  • Fixed Weapon crafting exploit when importing recipe from clipboard.
  • Fixed negative critical chance (and anything over 100%) affecting DPS calculation on weapon tooltip (this is only visual and wasn't affecting the actual weapon damage).
  • Fixed floating turrets on the Juggernaut and Claymore.
  • Fixed short range drones not hitting big ship targets. Now they constantly adjust their distancing.
