Starship EVO News

This build adds a player equipment loadout system.
Place helmet and backpack module into their respective slots to gain some perks.

Module would give access to various perks:

• - Helmet would give light, scanner capability
  
• - Boot would yield locomotion bonus or capability, cancel fall damage ect
  
• - Multitool: mining/scavenging/shooting bonus
  
• - Backpack: storage perk, jetpack mode (jumpack vs 6dof), personal shield
  

For now we only have a jetpack and storage module as I have been focusing on the tech.

To be added:

• - Boot and multitool modules
  
• - More jetpack modules
  
• - Refined system where a helmet/backpack could give several module slots: ie Backpack I,II or III.
  

=> please suggest any modules you would think would be interesting to have!

The goal of this update is to give players more tools to manage their inventory.
This is much needed for mid and late game in survival.

The valve, one-way, router and filter tubes.

4 news conveyor tubes have been added:

• One way: only allows items to pass in one direction. Toggle it one-off.
  
• Router: Toggle it to allows items to only go left or right.
  
• Valve: toggle it to allows or prevent item from passing
  
• Filter: allows the creation of filters to allows only some item to pass. It is possible to define several filters, and to use them as inclusive or exclusive.
  

Some changes have been made to the inventory framework to make this work, please report any regression you might encounter!

To-do:
Add filters options to the collector
