- Miscellaneous updates to other existing built-in ships.
- Ships that are set to "junk" can no longer be controlled, which the U.I. now makes clear with a red icon on the HUD similar to the icon shown when the ship doesn't have enough command points.
- Delivery missions will no longer be shown if they don't have enough space to hold the requested resources.
- Mining lasers will no longer shoot at parts marked for salvaging when set to Hold Fire.
- Collateral damage from area-of-effect weapons will no longer damage neutral ships/stations. This should prevent accidentally damaging stations while trying to rescue them.
- Tweaked collision avoidance so that ships will be less likely to interfere with each other when flying around suns.
- Changed the default hotkey for toggling the "Toggle Auto Face Cursor" direct control mode option from Ctrl+F to Ctrl+Shift+F to reduce accidental presses.
- Ships owned by player can now be abandoned even if there are no crew on the ship.
- Added settings to turn off the flying crew and resource pick-up dotted lines.
- Using the "Load Ship (Replace Existing)" option in the ship editor will now automatically update the ship's flight direction to match the loaded ship.
- Increased the default number of auto-save, quick-save, and lost ship files from 10 to 25. (Only applies to new players.)
- Replaced the clock icon (shown next to a player's name in multiplayer when they are slowing the game down for everyone else) with a turtle icon.
- Bugfix: Crash in some very specific situations when transferring crew to a junked ship.
- Bugfix: Possible multiplayer desyncs caused by railguns.
- Bugfix: On occasion, more crew than necessary could be assigned to deliver batteries.
- Bugfix: Ion Beam Prisms were very slow to change targets after destroying their current target.
- Bugfix: If a player gets disconnected from a multiplayer game while making an in-system hyper-jump, the jumping ship(s) would disappear until another player travels to near where it jumped to.
- Bugfix: Copying, rotating, and pasting groups of parts could break resource and crew assignments when done between non-rotatable parts.
- Bugfix: The "Break Formation To Attack" setting was not functioning at all.
- Bugfix: Missions that were redeemable at any trade station in a star system would also erroneously show star icons on faction bases.
- Bugfix: Typing multiplayer chat messages longer than the text box would cause the text to be offset the next time a chat message was typed.
