Update 2.4.1 Highlights

New World Bosses

We wanted to bring more life to the galaxy, so we're introducing many new bosses that you'll encounter while exploring. These bosses are tough to fight and will drop some fine loot! Each of them will have a unique encounter and sector to fight them in. Additionally, they'll have personal unique backstories that players can discover.

Escort AI

We've taken some steps to improve the escort AI behavior, especially when ships follow other ships through hyperspace. You can now see on the map how far your following ships can jump so that you don't accidentally lose them. On top of that, we've fixed some other issues and ensured that ships keep looking for the ship they were supposed to escort until it comes back into the sector or in hyperspace range.

Ship Management

Managing ships has received a big improvement: You can now remote-manage ships that are in the same sector as you. No more switching ships to dump some cargo or assign another captain! Sadly, due to technical limitations, we can't add this feature for ships that are outside of your current sector. We would have added it if we could!

The fleet overview has received some important quality-of-life changes, too. You can now filter, search, or remote-manage ships easily.

Performance & Bugfixes

We've added tons of performance improvements, especially on the galaxy and in rifts. As always there are also many fixes for bugs that have been reported by users. Thank you so much and keep it up, everyone! Enjoy!
