ALPHA 0 Patch 6:
UI work, gamepad work, game loop work.
* Mouse/Cursor over to interact with objects - not required for deliveries.
* You now get paid for jobs!
* You can now see how much mass you're carrying, and make sure to check the information before you take a job, it will tell you if you're overloaded! Click the "i" or press i, or "Y" to get the details in the job board.
* Windows Direct X 10 option removed from the Itch startup selector, it performed very poorly for people with DX11. You can still launch the game with -dx10 to use that mode.
* DX12 raytracing mode added to Itch startup selector. This mode will only ship with the deluxe edition, but feel free to check it out for now! It will be *very* slow if you don't have an RTX card.
* Everyone seems happy with the size/performance of the "Standard Edition" so far, but please let me know if you have feedback.
* New UI interaction still in progress - working fine for ship configuration and job board, but the new UI concept for the scanning interface is still WIP.
* The keymapper is still fussy, and has been disabled for the moment. It will return!
* Lots of graphical tweaks and tunings.
* UI/HUD system is undergoing a massive change, somewhat starting to show.
* As always feedback on the forum is appreciated, you can go here: https://forum.longplay.games/t/alpha-0-feedback-thread/224 or you can join the chat server and tell us directly! https://matrix.to/#/#longplay_games:matrix.org
