Notes

This build mostly contains things that were pushed out of the last build for one reason or another, including some user requests. Vessels that have not been saved or vessels with unsaved changes will no longer disappear when clicking the "Exit" button in the drydock. Instead the in progress vessel will sit there until the next time you activate that build area. This is useful when exiting the drydock to check on other things rather than launching. Additionally launching a vessel does not remove the in progress vessel from memory so the behavior of "Exit" and "Launch" will now be consistent. The only way to clear it out now will be a deliberate action such as creating a new vessel or loading a different one. The goal of the rope changes is to make boats more maneuverable while tied to docks and prevent boats being pulled underwater with tide changes. It is still possible to get pulled under with ropes if you do not tie them off above the water. Slow move is activated with the space bar. Slow move can be used in combination with Fast move to produce a sort of medium movement speed relative to the normal movement. The unwrap mode is similar to the paint mode for materials in that it changes the appearance of the material, mainly to make smaller shapes look better / less tiled when scaled larger. Tiling is the default mode. Some meshes work well with unwrap, mostly uncomplicated parts like cubes and simple shapes, other things like complex hulls need to be reworked maybe in the future to better support unwrapping. Not everything will look good unwrapped. The part destruction indicator will become active if a part is destroyed meaning the boat is beyond repair and that the hull integrity may not represent the status of the entire boat being fully repaired but rather that every remaining part has been repaired. You can use ropes while climbing on ladders but ropes cannot be attached to climbing Nautikins. Leaving default Player.log enabled until the next build because crashes have not reoccurred. It's possible the engine crashes because Player.log is not enabled. That would be ironic. Then I will probably disable it if and see if crashes return. Long fuel connectors are sold at Portus. Fuel cables will still use line of sight to prevent self collision with the vessel, meaning that if the cable starts wrapping around the vessel it will break, but it will no longer break from other objects lightly touching it such as Nautikins. Saved dropped items will be lost because the save structure has changed to accommodate moving parts. Guides have been updated.
