The Exoplanet Update is all about the VR Starmap. Whether in game or in the English labeled bonus version, we have added a zoom capability and planetary bodies. Players can zoom into star systems and see exoplanets, fictional game exoplanets, and in the Sol system, hundreds of objects. Except for the game planets, data is from recognized sources . In the case of the solar system, all object positions are from the JPL Horizons database. Exoplanets in habitable zones have the names underlined. Stars also now have flare brightness commensurate with their luminosity vales.

Starmap Improvements:

• Zoom to objects around stars in the starmap, sun flares reflect actual star luminosity.

• Added hundreds of exoplanets with accurate sizes and indications when in the habitable zone.

• Added fictional game planets and moons.

• Added hundreds of solar system objects accurately positioned from JPL Horizons data (for July 11).

• In game, now starts player at current star system.

Other Improvements:

• Can now turn off Auto Carry. Controllers default to simple grip pickup, thumbpad/stick movement, and trigger activation.

• Auto carry changed to drop item on thumbstick press when centered (to support glide in reverse).

• Added variable rotation speed depending on thumb position.

• Added glide in reverse (at half speed).

• Main (menu) scene auto positions you in front of menu.

• Main (menu) scene cosmetic updates.

• Tau Ceti and GL-68 cosmetic updates.

Bug Fixes:

• Fixed killed Reds arriving in TC.

• Fixed bug where thumbstick does not teleport on release.

• Sliding too fast in docking scene.
