Astra Protocol 2 News

Build 1.0.8381.31003 is now live.

This is a minor update and fixes the following issues:

• Enabling autopilot or stabilization will not fight with manual override of helm controls.
  
• Self-destruct command will accept an answer of "N" when asking for confirmation.
  
• Key input is ignored until prompted on the Mission Status screen.
  

Hi all,

Firstly we'd like to thank you all for the reception and support that Astra Protocol 2 has received so far. We have taken your feedback into account and have begun work on the first major feature patch.

The focus of this patch is mainly around some usability features and will consist of the following:

Usability

• An ETA display for when navigating using the autopilot.
  
• TAB to autocomplete commands.
  
• Saving the Terminal Configuration so it doesn't need to be set every time you restart the application.
  
• A SHUTDOWN command to exit the terminal.
  
• Saving and loading progress.
  

Features / Gameplay

• A star chart to display explored space.
  
• Stars implemented.
  
• Damage to enemy ship components.
  
• A WINE supported build (with the TTS libraries stripped out).
  
• Minor graphical changes.
  
• General performance and stability fixes.
  

Please note that this list may change depending on development and that we don't currently have a timescale for when this patch will release, though we will let you know as soon as it is planned.

Build 1.0.8373.15887 is now live and should feature improvements to stability and minor changes to the user manual
