The 2.1.0 release is here! There isn't a great deal of new content in this release but a lot of work has been done behind the scenes to make the game much more stable and easier to develop. As with the last release, we're including four extra modules with the base game: federal, syndicate, salvage and warp. Thanks to everyone who contributed to this release! The game's open source and if you want anything in the game, you can help to make it happen.
