Hello starchasers! As promised we've got another patch for you this month, right before I take a small break to go off to the Mothman Festival (I made an oath to do so). This is mostly a big pass on all the new content, but I had some time between wrangling my disgusting furry cat animals to give some quality of life stuff.

There's a few small things, but our big features are mostly being pushed out to the next milestone update (you can read more about those at the end of these patch notes).

[*] Fixed issue with Long Legacies where the courier ship could be damaged early. [*] Fixed issue where Reach Station wouldn’t appear on your navmap. [*] The pause key can no longer be unbound. You can rebind it and swap binds, mind you, but if you try to unbind it, god will stop you from making mistakes. [*] Fixed issue where the Obscurite homeworld would reset itself. [*] Fixed issue with the Bigger Picture that hid the giant capitalist lobster demigods from your view if you had completed the OTHER demigod quest. What a weird one. [*] Fixed some broken tooltips.

[*] Fixed issue where several crafting recipes wouldn’t complete upon a reload. [*] Deadstation 15, being abandoned, will no longer be a target for Us missions. [*] Fixed an issue where some bounties wouldn’t save. [*] Adjusted many hardpoint positions of starchaser ships to be way less… weird. [*] Adjusted aspects of Heist of the Year to prevent potential softlocking. [/list] [h1]UPCOMING FEATURES[/h1] We're not ready to do a full announcement on our third milestone update JUST yet, but it's coming. Part of that update will include a huge model and cockpit overhaul, giving them full textures alongside working computer screens that are unique for each cockpit(these screens aren't ready yet, but the cockpits textures are!).
