Desync Fixes, Flying Comet Catchers and a Faster Technology Window
Improvements
- Stations with Comet Catchers or Comet Harvesters can fly. Lifting off cancels the incoming comet; catching resumes on landing
- Single player keeps three Autosave Before Quit saves, written whenever you leave a game
- The Load list has Saves and Autosaves tabs and a name filter, and autosave names say sp or mp
- A building or connector marked for bot deconstruction stops working right away and counts as gone
- Reopening the Technology window on a big save is much faster, and it costs far less while open
- Big worlds with many fleets spend much less time each tick on fleet vision
- Cargo barges have a glowing cyan trim so they stand out against buildings
- Mods can say whether they work in multiplayer, and the Mods menu shows it
- The logistics bay's barge port reads Loading Bay, on one line in every language
- Tutorial steps show their explanation as a paragraph, and repeated lines are gone
- The Filter item picker no longer offers bots, ships or enemy units
Fixes
- German and other long-language text fits its panels
- Multiplayer: upgrading a Cargo Hold holding items to a Provider Cargo Hold no longer desyncs clients
- Single player no longer freezes on Resynchronizing with the host after leaving a multiplayer game mid resync
- Overdrivers no longer overheat their station while its assemblers work
- The Trash slot no longer creates items after a failed trash
- A dismissed warning no longer comes back with its alarm
- Mod folders whose names differ only in capitals no longer stop every mod loading
- Joining a host on another version says so again
- A flying station stops on a waypoint that became a stop mid corner
- The tutorial's orange highlight on the inventory's first column is no longer cut off
- The Map Controls hint is centred under its buttons
