Build Updated to 17342

Over the past few weeks I've been posting incremental updates to the opt-in beta branch. With no reports of new issues introduced by the changes, I'm now promoting the latest to the default branch.

[h3]Build 17342 Notes:[/h3]
  • Highlight interactions on map now color codes based on category (purple = detected but unscanned, yellow = scanned but unsurveyed, teal = additional investigation possibilities, dark green = trade outpost)
  • Added new tech that has a probability of briefly illuminating ships beyond normal sensor range on map
  • New mini-side quest to unlock said tech
  • Boosted map visibility of void nebulae
  • Skill info on Crew Panel shows related techs
  • Add button to delete all autosaves older than 24 hours
  • Added dev console commands "RenamePlayer(first, last)" and "RenameShip(shipname)" (names must be in quotes, e.g., RenameShip("The Explorer")
  • Several minor help/hints
  • Don't show/load saves with a version greater than current version
  • Minor tweaks to difficulty
  • Numerous changes to controller/gamepad/deck inputs
  • Refactored Cargo artifact display to be more efficient
  • Improved gamepad Cargo interface
