Starship EVO News

This build introduce a new mission type and in-game event: Distress Call.
From time to time a civilian ship will broadcast a distress call, with the player being able to get to the rescue or not.

The reason might varies:

• Ship is attacked by a pirate
  
• Ship was attacked and needs repair
  
• Ship ran out of fuel
  
• Ship needs a o2 refill
  

The call will be visible from the holomap and the spaceship HUD for easier navigation.

Hotfixes:

• #6149 Hovercraft green arrow.
  
• #6150 Tooltip showing issues when dragging items
  
• #6144 Camera issue in some case
  
• #6148 Lags when CE move.
  
• Refuelling fix for when docking is impossible
  

Thanks for playing!

This build adds a big improvement to the mission framework, with a first procedural mission: Outpost refuelling.

Mission Improvements:

• Now saves
  
• Can deal with interstellar objectives
  
• Plenty of smaller changes and fix
  

Refuelling Mission: This is a procedural mission, so the following can varies:

• Quantity of fuel required: some might require a big tanker to tackle
  
• Emergency: some might have a time limit
  
• Threat level: you might need to kill a pirate near the station
  
• Interstellar travel: you might need to warp to a different system
  
• Text is randomized, there must be 150 row of text already (thanks to copilot...)
  

=> more missions will be added soon!

Also improved or added:

• Star and stations name
  
• Can dock automatically to fuel hub.
  
• Docking improved
  
• Navigation and holomap tweaks and fixes
  

Suggestion:

• #6122 Can drop partial stack of item automatically
  
• #6131 New Control Option: Can switch brick sub-shape with ctrl-scroll
  

Hotfixes:

• #6102 Shipyard gravity feature removed
  
• #6123 Cannot drag item in backpack when over-encumbered
  
• #6120 Addon schematic issue
  
• #6119 #6129 Addon schematic issue
  
• #6127 Schematic filter issue
  
• #6132 Crafting rotor is oversized
  
• #6116 Docking issues
  
• #6133 Collector fail to collect while in hovercraft
  

This adds a new Trade menu, for now only on Fuel outpost.
You can sell or buy fuel at those locations.
Of course this feature will be expanded to trade ships and trade outpost / kiosks.
