Improvements

  • Map icons are drawn twice as big, so you can see them at the new zoom levels
  • Alt view icons on your machines grow as you zoom out so they stay readable
  • New descriptions for the Power Distributor, High Energy Power Distributor, Power Transmitter and Capacitor, and the power panel shows a red line when a station's grid is wired in a loop
  • Piloting a station as a client, the rocket adapters turn with your keys right away and swing round faster
  • As a client, research drops are pulled into the ship you see instead of stopping behind it
  • Ships and turrets stop firing forever at a target they can't damage and move on to another

Fixes

  • Joining or rejoining a game could desync straight away on saves where a Comet Catcher had been removed, or while defense platforms were fighting
  • A station whose landing was blocked after it turned could be torn apart on the next landing. Existing saves heal on load
  • A filter or splitter setting made on a hologram was lost when it was built
  • A station with the same landing zone twice in its route could wait there forever when the zone had a max queue
  • Movement could still freeze after alt-tabbing, most of all on a Steam Deck
  • Loading a single-player save after leaving a multiplayer game came up frozen
  • The bug reporter window on the main menu stopped taking clicks once you dragged it
  • Map markers landed up and to the left of where you clicked
  • Long stop names in a station's route overlapped the row below. They now end in "…"
  • The afterburner plume ends in a tapered cone instead of a flat edge, the Bat's exhaust is smaller, and the Frenzy glow is back
  • Two crashes: a station undocking on a client, and construction bots whose owner was destroyed
