Hi all. Biggest change in this update is a new point of interest on planets; The Shrine. If you've had a decent run, there is a chance a shrine will spawn on a planet somewhere, where you can collect an donation of scrap as a reward. The amount is determined by your previous score, unless there is already an uncollected donation of a higher value.
Also, higher value loot crates now have a chance to be shielded. These shields are indestructible and require the new Keycode item to unlock them. Keycodes can be found in other loot crates like the other items, and purchased from shops. If there is a shielded crate in the current system, there will be a keycode at at least one of the shops or stations in the same system. They cost 50 scrap.
I've also reworked how laser beams work, so they should be less system intensive. Please let me know if you see any strange behaviour.
