We added a handful of interesting things, most of which are also useful, this month.
Last month you saw animations. We took this a bit further, adding some light effects when flying dangerously close to stars. Additionally, animations can be disabled if you’re not fond of buoyancy effects in the interstellar sea.
Additionally, missions now exist! There’s a good bit more work to do in making these as robust as we want; still, it’s a great leap forward for us. We also plan to implement courier-style missions, where you’ll be tasked with moving…. product… from place to place. Missions will be a primary way to increase your rank and/or reputation with issuing organizations in the universe, and make a few credits as well.
Within the “Roster” panel, you can view your currently active missions. You can even opt to drop a mission, if you’d rather fail now than fail later I suppose.
