1.0.15 Mini Update
Attention, space pilots!
Thanks for all the great feedback and support (this time we even got a new weapon by a user :D). We're still working on some additions for the Caduceus arc epilog (and some other minor stuff), improvements for the autopilot and further development of FTA missions. In the meantime, enjoy this patch full of little and big changes, including new ships and weapons. All ships have been divided into different classes, giving their stats and slot setups more sense and balance. Some item weights have been reduced for a better trading and crafting experience.
[h3]Ship Classes[/h3]
More than the average rebalancing: All ships have been sorted into different classes, pre-defining their setups such as stats and weapon mounts. Note that this strongly affects global ship balancing (all is listed in detail here), so the specs for your ship may have changed – but definitely for the better!
[h3]Sell Ships[/h3]
Sell them at any ship garage.

Cessy[h3]New Weapons[/h3]
- Mini Seekers & Hunter Seekers
We're happy to introduce the first weapons made by a community member – check out these awesome new missile weapons by Ashkin (thank you)! They're a part of the Sphere arsenal now. - Shock Turret
Your regular shock weapon is now available as a turret!
[h3]Balancing[/h3]
- According to some of your feedback as well as our own ideas – and along with the ship classifications, most ships have been improved in handling and equipment.
FULL SHIP CHANGELOG - A lot of item weights have been regulated to prevent irrational cargo overloads and to make the overall weight balancing more realistic.
