Smarter Pirates, Deadlier Sectors – and Better Loot!

This update brings new challenges, smarter enemies, and better tools to survive and thrive. I've fine-tuned several systems to offer a deeper and more dynamic gameplay experience.

New:

All civilian ships are now differently armed and will fight back when attacked – no more easy targets!

Pirate ships can now repair themselves when flying back to their starting point.

New dedicated loot UI for better clarity and control.

Updated:

Pirates now behave more intelligently and dynamically – expect more tactical encounters.

Sectors now contain more hazards and potentially more pirate activity.

Mining system has been updated for smoother gameplay.

Mining UI improved – clearer, more intuitive, and efficient.

Mining sound effects have been refreshed for a more immersive experience.

Station expansion UI improved for better usability.

Star map UI updated for improved navigation.
