VFX Improvements (v0.5.86)

[p]This update is mostly visual improvements to explosions and projectiles. Just to temper expectations a bit... this isn't Reality Break. I'm not a VFX Artist as my main profession, but I think this has been a pretty good overall improvement that should make using weapons and shooting stuff more satisfying.[/p][p]In addition are the some changes that didn't get done in time for my last update.[/p][p][/p][h2]Polish Update[/h2][p]That's the Polish language now fully human translated by HAKIMODO. In addition to this I've also dropped the price in Poland by 25% permanently as I feel the old price was a little too high.[/p][p][/p][h2]Russian Translation[/h2][p]Core systems, Settings, UI and HUD have now been human translated for Russian using the same translator Laious uses for Star Valor. That should be enough to list it as a supported language on the store page. Full human translation for all languages will be done for the 1.0 release.[/p][p][/p][h2]Next Update[/h2][p]Currently the game limits you to no more than 4 weapons of a single type (Primary, Secondary, etc). Next update will see this limit removed. I have some changes I need to make to slot display in equipment and the ship bar in the HUD then I'm good to go.[/p][p]I feel this change is going to have such a big impact on gameplay I should probably label it a major update. It's almost certainly going to break some things performance wise if people start rocking huge stacks of Drone Bays and such so that will be fun.[/p][p]As always full patch notes are below.
