Discovery 5.2.1.1, released approximately 12:05 AM UTC, 18.11.2024. Followup hotfix on the last week's 5.2.1 patch.
- Added: Added: HitCast based reticle: When firing upon a ship you have currently targeted, the reticle should now show up when the ship is actually in weapons range, instead of waiting until the target's center of mass is in range.
- Added: AI IFF restored.
- Added: Restored and added a lot of trade/patrol paths to Texas.
- Added: Billboards in Rheinland/Liberty/Kusari IWs.
- Added: Tau-23 -> Languedoc mine field.
- Added: Alaska and Zone-21 patrol paths.
- Added: Cruiser Heavy Autocannon and Autocannon recipe.
- Added: Minor vanilla story set pieces re-added to New York and Magellan.
- Changed: Galileo Platinum mining changes:
Raiden Cloud damage reduced by approximately 66%.
Raiden Cloud high-yield platinum pockets logarithmic scaling added. The pockets do very little damage on the edges, scaling to 50% of the pocket radius, at which point full damage is applied. Damage in the center nerfed by 13%.
Added exclusion zones and navigation buoys from three directions (Kusari, Liberty, middle) towards the Platinum field, for easier pathing.
High-Yield Platinum Pockets are now permanently discoverable on the nav map.
Added a flavor wreck that was accidentally left out of 5.2.1.

Hellbore impact and projectile effect.
Battleship Rocket Battery impact effect.
Battleship Pulse Projectile effect.
Nightmare torpedo visual improvements.
Harpoon missile impact effect.
Cruiser autocannon improvements.
- Changed: Jumphole changes. Economy-related, story-related, and reducing the amount of unstable jumpholes that served little purpose (we will attempt to place unstable jumpholes only if there's a very good reason: a noticeable shortcut, economy reasons, etc.):
Omicron Delta - Omicron Theta jumphole collapsed.
Omicron Kappa - Omicron Delta jumphole re-opened.
Omicron Alpha - Omicron Theta jumphole is now unstable.
Orleanais - Champagne unstable jumphole is now stable.
Edinburgh - Roussillon unstable jumphole is now stable.

Sigma-17 -> Omicron Theta jumphole re-positioned, in Sigma-17.
Omicron Kappa jumpholes re-positioned.

- Changed: Cruiser Autocannon balance pass with extra armor penetration.
- Changed: Gold Refinery recipes updated: Wildcat is now the default output, Regular Gold is BMM only.
- Changed: Camera ship hull significantly buffed due to percentage damage radiation existing now.
- Changed: Omicron Pi QoL changes.
- Changed: Radiation damage in Omega-11 reduced by 66% in the outskirts, kept the same in the Abstand.

Are prices of commodities also being recalculated accordingly? Routes to Mu or even to Delta will take longer now, I would assume. And the same for mats going from Delta / Minor.

Every time a base, jumphole, or system moves, economy is automatically re-calculated to account for the new changes. Everything will sell for more in the Omicrons now, and the CSU (credits per second per unit) rate should go quite a bit up for some commodities like Niobium.
