So, the version numbers were getting ahead of themselves. With Early Access fast approaching being at 0.9 made it look like a full release was a short time away but it's certainly not.

While the game will be fully playable at launch. There are still a ton of things I want to add, not least of which is mod support and maybe even multiplayer. So I've rolled the version back to 0.3.9.

When Sector 3 is done we'll hit 0.4.0 and from there, every big milestone will bump the version closer to 1.0.0. This changes nothing about my plans it just reflects them more clearly.

Fleet Improvements

You'll no longer find the Black Market in the Mothership, this didn't make a lot of sense anyway. It'll now be tagging along in a separate vessel as I'm sure Admiral Gideon would not approve.



The Assembler now also deploys an Identification Web when it arrives. Simply fly near this structure and it'll scan every item in your cargo. It's sadly far less chatty than Deckard Cain was though.

Everything else for this update is just quality of life and small fixes. More content coming in the next update!
