The latest patch includes these new improvements and fixes:
- Idle harvesters will auto-repair close ships.
- Option to invert Y axis (mouse rotation).
- Height indicators will be shown in the tactical map when the movement guide is activated (M or right click by default).
- Added minimize button to bottom UI bar (check top right border).
- Added Ravager capital ship to Pirate faction.
- Added more randomness to spawn positions of enemies and reinforcements.
- Zoom out farther in the tactical map.

Ok, frankly I wanted to put more things in this week's patch, specially I wanted to change the camera controls but they turned out to be more challenging than expected so it will take me a bit more of time to improve them. For the moment, I tried to apply many of the requests I've received in the forums but I know that there's a lot more to do and I plan to cover most of people's suggestions in the next patches.
Also I'm working in new scenarios but I want to include them all with a major change to the galactic map so it would make the game worthy of a new playthrough (I think one or two new scenarios just won't cut it). There's also several new ships for the player and enemies in current development.
That's it for the moment, the game is only two weeks on Early Access so there's still a lot of changes to do and feedback to receive but I feel optimistic about the current progress.

How to Play:
In the game you lead a small fleet of human survivors, your only objective is to reach the last sector in a galactic map with random encounters with your Mothership in one piece and enough ships to defend it. Every sector you visit can present a combat, scavenging, dialogue or trading situation that you will need to decide how to exploit but you only need to stay in a place enough for your hyperspace generator to charge in order to continue the journey.
You can give orders in real time to individual ships or using control groups, also they can be ordered to move using three dimensions.
