Major Changes Underway

If you're been following the testing branch, you'll know that there are major changes underway in Star Explorers. The idea is to get the game more user friendly and stable in time for the big 5.0 update, which will also include lots of new content as well.



Right now, changes to the star chart and menu system are being attempted. This is the first time I've touched some of this code in many years, so I am expecting the testing branch to get worse before it gets better :) I just want everyone to be aware of this, and not be surprised if they encounter some issues while testing out the new features.

Of course you are always welcome to try it. Grab the password for the testing branch over on the discord server...

But if you are not prepared for running into some bugs and reporting them, it may be best to sit this out a bit longer.

I expect the 5.0 release to be ready some time in the Fall.
