Greetings Star Commanders,
New version for you, fresh out of the oven. Again, lots of fixes for some lingering issues. The big stuff has to do with addressing enemy behavior during combat and mission targets consistently being at their desired location. We are aware of a few bugs but give her a shot.
To get on the betatesting branch go to your library, right click on Star Command Galaxies, go to properties, click on the "Betas" tab and select the "betatesting" branch. The game will auto-update!
Patch notes below:
Revised hand-to-hand combat so that enemy will fire, acquire targets, beam in intelligently and move through their decisions much better
Mission targets should be at their displayed location
Added Bounty missions
Added in Crew Warnings where crew will tell you if there is an issue on your ship
NAVMAP: Ships are being displayed on the edges of the nodes correctly
STEALING disabled for the time being - objects can now be scrapped
Music starting at 0 volume
ShipPurchase not working correctly
Carter notices not coming in at correct times
Added in giver faction to mission indicator
FIXED: Targeting allowed weapons to be fired before battery requirement
FIXED: Distress missions not completing
FIXED: Crew loyalty pulling from personal loyalty after mission complete
FIXED: Freighters threatening the player
FIXED: Crew shader
FIXED: NPC’s and crew will try and avoid food and scrap instead of walking through them (unless trapped)
FIXED: Crew walking through walls when they decide their own path
A ton of other small fixes, tweaks and changes
Known Issues (fixed next week):
Enemies are not triggering shooting animation
Enemies are shooting after they are dead until despawn
If character popup dialogs trigger at the same time the text will all be displayed at once, ending up with garbled text
Crew details not displaying the correct info
Hover icon getting stuck behind crew members
Tell us how it is playing!
Cheers,
Warballoon

Star Command Galaxies is the ultimate starship simulator. Become Captain and recruit your crew, build your ship, explore a randomly generated universe and battle alien ships across the galaxy.
You start from humble beginnings in your very own shuttle, taking on various missions at starbases located on the galactic map. As you complete your tasks you will earn money, xp and equipment to help you hire new crew members and purchase a larger ship. Continue cleaning the stars of the vermin that inhabit it including zombies and space pirates.
With your success comes more challenges. Keeping your crew happy is critical to your success. You must keep them fed, well rested and entertained or they will pick up new "quirks" to their personality. A good captain will see their crew earn "perks" - personality bonuses that will help you battle your foes.
New enemies will arrive to challenge you and your crew and it will be up to you to create the ultimate vessel to defeat them.
Star Command Galaxies will be regularly updated with new races, missions, planets, equipment, ships and much more!
