StarMade v0.197.36 Bug-fixing Round Part 2

Greetings, Citizens ~ Unfortunately, our lead developer schema was hit by the flu three weeks ago and has only been able to work for the past week. Because of the lost work hours, this will be another bug fixing round! Schema is feeling well once again, so we can all get back on track. Something you have probably noticed is that StarMade now uses semantic versioning; while this doesn't affect gameplay, it’s an industry standard, and will allow us to more quickly (and accurately) identify revision/hotfix versions. Other notable improvements in this release:

We have added a new model for the Marker Beam.
Shield hits now scale with weapon power. (For example, your pistol will no longer light up the entire ship when fired inside.)
We have made some small changes to the lighting shader which improves graphics at longer distances.
The atmosphere of planets now looks better when viewed from different a sector.
Mirror Cubes is now enabled by default.
The yellow/red build box now has a new appearance and scales with box dimensions.
Shipyard computers now have an [Edit Design] button to access ship cores without having to manually get in.

Confirmed fixes: T1294 star reflection makes some blocks appear white T1293 Shipyards able to take over an existing entity T1292 thrust circle slider can go under or above 100% total thrust T1276 turning off gravity un-aligns you from ship T1267 exit tutorial dialog menu appears on top of confirmation dialog T1244 Missile Tracking inaccurate vs. smaller ships T1226 Cannot modify rotational thrust using out-of-ship thrust menu as astronaut T1221 fleet on sentry or defend doesn't fight back if enemy is out of weapon range T1211 AI aim is nearly 100% accurate, regardless of difficulty setting T1248 "Preview Block to Place" appears inside Galaxy Map T1185 Carrier recall first uses an old flagship position to home in T1177 Faction description can't be blank (no warning message issue) T1081 "Select Nearest Entity" while inside a ship core selects your astronaut T1065 Unable to unlink weapons and effects in weapons menu T1020 Diminishing returns of Inherited Thrust is based off the dock, not mothership T971 storage pull on asteroid results in class-cast exception T897 tooltip not showing for ship hotbar 2 -> 10 T798 Chat main log blank after first 100 lines T794 Transporters preserves alignment but not gravity on the same ship T778 scrolling through ship hotbar is jumpy T709 LOD of planets are the wrong colour seen from other sectors T8 Sector change moves players in gravity/alignment We’ll continue to do bug fixing till the end of the month while preparing and then moving on to a long awaited change. Along the way, we’ll include smaller features with those bug fixes. Thanks for playing StarMade! ~ The Schine Team

Key Features:

Procedurally generated infinite universe, with quadrillions of galaxies - The universe is massive. It'd take approximately 10,000 years to cross from one end to the other! Singleplayer and Multiplayer worlds can be heavily customised with our extensive config options.
Developed for scalability- We have a broad range of graphical and performance options that cater to our low-end users as well as those with heavy rigs and servers.
Advanced Build Tools - Powerful and easy to use building tools, quickly design awesome ships, stations and bases. Including functions: Copy & paste, undo, redo, replace, symmetry modes, shape assistance systems (spheres, cycles, torus and more) and rotation of templates.
Modular Weapon Systems - Combine weapon systems for countless configurations of weapons. From sniper beams to swarm missiles.
Comprehensive Rail & Logic Systems - Use the rail system to build moving parts. You can do anything from simple elevators, sliding or rotating doors, to complex cranes.

Tinker with our logic systems to control any system in the game, be it weapons, lights, rails, or explosives. Logic covers all basic gate types for convenient use (AND, OR, NOT, DELAY, Flip-Flop), allows in flight control and wireless connections between entities. You can use it for simple things like timers, switches, buttons. Or, build complex systems like working clocks and even a real CPU.
Community multiplayer (dedicated servers) - Play with others in our community hosted servers. Our configs allow administrators to customise core game mechanics for a tailored experience. Most settings can be tweaked to squeeze the best performance out of hardware.
Platform independent (Windows, Linux, Mac) - StarMade is completely platform independent. We support the three most widely used operating systems.
Free to play in alpha - We offer the full game free to play while in alpha development. Play our game through this period for free while in return we receive invaluable feedback and bug reports.
