Update 5 is on the update servers. This is a comparatively minor update from update 4. It focuses primarily on bug fixes to improve server and client stability.
I'm declaring this to be the end of the beta and the start of the full release phase. There are still bugs, both known and unknown. Mobile docking has still not made it into the mod as sadly anticheat work and base enhancements have used up a fair bit of this update cycle.
Importantly there's a new installer available that should help people with non-English Freelancer installs more easily install the mod. I will be publishing this on moddb shortly.
The development team's focus is moving fully to work on 4.87. We have a very aggressive schedule and this will limit the number of changes in the 4.86 updates. I expect one or two 4.86 bug fix updates before the release of 4.87. The updates will focus on the introduction of mobile docking and this should be server side only.
See the following post for the mostly complete change log.
