Marseille is intended. Unione Corse is semi/quasi-lawful faction, being so close to the trade lane even in relatively "their" space would still potentially compromise their activity to a watchful eye of the Union Intelligence

I know this patch mostly covered re-balancing ships and guns which was very due, but I've noticed there's much better performance as well, the game starts faster and feels overall smoother, even with all the new 3D effects in place there's little to no performance impact.

Kudos to everyone that managed to make this two decades old engine run this well.

By the way, I've noticed the choice between LAN and inet when selecting multiplayer is gone, I suppose both are merged now and LAN servers show up along with inet servers?

We did a lot of cleaning which probably made effect, plus there remains Coding Dept's work which I might be unaware of. Happy to see that some of it actually worked tho.

You automatically proceed to the Internet tab. Even if you run your local server, it should appear in the Internet tab.

It's a minor thing, but I'd like to kudos whoever made ambient NPCs fight each other and the player properly again.

Changing Burgundy's nebula colors is an absolute crime, which I decried months ago. Whether its in a certain color patch of the universe map or not, it is ridiculous to suddenly flip backgrounds anyway, but Burgundy was beautiful before and now gross. Sorry Grosh, but #JusticeForBurgundy. That is the only bit I won't be silent for, now I'll bugger off.

This'll might burst your bubble unfortunately, but they fight only eachother for the most part, except for special systems. We have things we're thinking about to do a proper PvE overhaul of the whole game, it's just a monstrous amount of work, so for now I did this to make the game world feel more lively. Most NPCs act as "background", whereas they only interact with eachother and not the player, as right now their AI can be quite vicious and they'd be a serious nuisance if they got "turned on". We all want proper PvE within the game world, but to do it properly would've likely doubled the patch cycle or something.

I'm glad you enjoy them though, I love watching them fight.

Whoever don't like new Burgundy should perish in old Omega-11 Stratoshpere.

Well, in my opinion green in Omicrons is DREADFULLY UGLY and that is why I avoid omicrons like the plague. If it wasn't for that I would be playing like Corsair or Order.
