Just in time for christmas, I've put together a brand-new update featuring a variety of bugfixes, improved sprites, several reworked and reintroduced ships, and several brand-new ships for you to find.
Verison 0.0.15- Christmas Update
-Added the Viaduct drone, a massive capital-scale fuel tanker meant to keep massive superships flying over extreme distances. Found extremely rarely in derelict fleets, and infrequently stolen by independents and scavengers.
-Reimplemented the Marche drone, a frigate with big dreams of being a heavy destroyer. Packs a major punch and can show up even in light derelict fleets, look out!
-Added the new Blockade drone, a tough destroyer that is effectively an upscaling of the same 'flying armor plate' concept seen in the Barrier
-Fixed several mounts on the Arsenal being considered hardpoints despite... not being hardpoints.
-Fixed missing hullmods on the Bore (I swear I did this one before)
-Buffed the Decimator, it now has enough flux capacity and dissapation to fire most weapons it can be fitted with almost continuously, making it far more formidable
-Added the Galaxia, a massive transport ship that was used to carry tens of thousands of colonists to the Sector before the collapse, but was all but erased from history due to the unpleasant political implications it created for Domain successors. Found in similar circumstances as the Viaduct.
-Added the Antephaylax, an exotic experimental drone designed to counter early phase ships. It's dangerous to more than just phase ships, be careful!
Full changelog can be found in the OP.
This update is a little rushed since I decided last-minute that a christmas release would be neat, so some of this stuff is a bit rough still, and there may be some undocumented changes I forgot to remove. Keep an eye out for anything that doesn't seem right, and please report anything you can spot for post-holiday bugfixes.
And merry christmas to all of you.
