Fixed an issue where the Unload All button in the Player inventory window would error out if you had resources.

Fixed a sound bug that would not allow options to be applied in either Shipyard or Sector.
Fixed an issue where weapon and explosions were not being controlled by the SFX Volume control.
Fixed a bug with not being able to fill your cargo while mining it always kept 1 spot open.
Fixed the Tutorial Open By Default checkbox this will now function correctly.
Fixed the ability to left click on a Target Icon in the top left corner to select the target.
D13.2 Development Patch Hotfix
Added <*> Mining Laser Weapon Subsystem. This is currently working it will be improved upon in the upcoming patches. Such as tool tips and a warning when your inventory is full.
Changed <*> New Game Menu the faction slider maximum amount is bound to how many factions you currently have in your faction folder.
Fixed <*>Fixed a bug were weapons would fire before being fully deployed.

D13.1 Development Patch Hotfix
Fixed Warp Gate bug. The button will now be active and clickable.
Fixed an issue with trying to remove all parts from the starter ships.
Changed the reset button to now be active during career mode. It will add all subystems and modules back to your station inventories.
D13 Devbuild is live
We have released the D13 Development build, please check out the patch notes here.
<*>Resolved crashing on both Linux and Mac.
<*>Right click menu issue has been corrected
<*>Performance increased across all 3 platforms in the shipyard
<*>Fixed persistent ship parts of your last ship being placed when designing a new ship.
D12.1 Live Patch Hotfix
<*>Hardpoint connection detectors have been modified to prevent hardpoints from showing as disconnected when going from shipyard to sector and back to shipyard.
<*>Fixed a store bug that was causing inventory not to transfer to the player.
<*>Additional fixes include a modify bug that allowed pieces to attach to loaded ships from existing shipyard components (if you had a piece on your mouse, then clicked load, a new ship would load, then if you placed the part, both ships possibly merged in a horrific way), now players receive an error message to drop the piece first.
<*>Shipyard Controls have been fixed ~ Using Escape key to return to shipyard will no longer affect the way controls work
<*>Note: Using the Escape key to return to the shipyard is a development tool only, inventory may not persist if using this method to return to shipyard. We recommend docking at an actual Station to reach a shipyard to maintain persistent inventory.
<*>Ships in Sector no longer periodically shake/act like jelly
<*>Oberon Freighter will need to have a launch platform subsystem applied to its Hangar Module in order to launch drones successfully.
D12 Patch is Live!
D12
New Galaxy Required
Warning: Parts May be Disconnected from Old Ships and will need to be reconnected. Known Issue: Hardpoint Placement: If you can’t get a hardpoint to accept its position, enter freeform mode (tab) and adjust it to be able to fit, then click “Connect Part to Ship”
Added
AI can now warp and turn off drag to while travelling or when closing distance with a hostile target. This should be quite noticeable to players compared to the constant slow-boating they used to do.
Shipyard - Added the ability to place modules singly or mirrored, flip the mirrored modules as needed
Damage readouts in Sector. Icon will appear when a system has reached 75% health, with the color transitioning to red when it reaches 25% health. A tool tip has been added to give exact percentage of health.
AI ships can now make use of attack drones.
Jump drives: The jump drive subsystems are now functional. Instead of only being able to jump to sectors within your current star system, a jump drive allows you to make jumps based only on distance. The star map now displays how far a sector is from your current position in light years, and how far you can jump using your ship’s currently equipped jump drive. If you don’t have one, you’re stuck with jumping to same-system sectors and jump gates.
Ships now retain their damage upon return to shipyard. The new repair window allows the player to recover hull damage and repair subsystems for a cost. If the player lacks funds, their balance will go into the negative, representing debt. While in debt, repairs can still be purchased, but the player is unable to spend money in any other way. This is a temporary implementation pending further development passes.
Paint Styles are now available (beyond Color Profiles) - to add textures to colors on the ships.
Module counter in the lower left corner of the shipyard displays how many modules are on the ship as well as the ship module count classification (low/medium/high/extreme). As players add more components, a warning will pop up showing when performance may begin to be impacted by module #’s
Changed
Shipyard UI has been overhauled. The top bar is now controls: Reset, Save,Load,Workshop,Info,Store,Inventory,Repair Window,and all ship stats divide by classification.
The new right hand slide out controls Modules (Cockpits,Hulls,Engines,Misc), Weapons both hardpoint/weapon mount placement and assigning weapons to mounts, Drones placement of Hanger/DCM and hangar management. And last but not least is the customization of colors and styles.
The new left side slide out Shipyard Tools, Gizmo Controls, Mirror Placement, and Mirror Tools.
Modules are now placed on a grid system in Shipyard rather than a node system. Pressing Tab will still enable freeform mode.
Significantly decreased spread of all kinetic weapons
Doubled damage rating of all kinetic weapons
Reduced the mass of all ammunition
Reduced the volume of all ammunition, it should now be viable to stock your ships with it.
The AI aggro mechanic has been fleshed out a bit. Enemy ships smaller than you may run instead of fight, and larger ships may not see you as worth their time. Proximity is also taken into account, and distant ships may not bother with you.
Asteroids will now be of random scale.
Faction standings are now reciprocal. It is not longer possible for faction A to love faction B, while faction B hates faction A.
Drone collision avoidance has been updated
Warp effects modified
Fixed
Fixed a bug that occured when holding a directional input while opening the map.
Fixed bugs affecting some particle effect scales.
Fixed a performance issue while warping that was introduced in D11.
Fixed a bug where auto warp would move the player away from their intended destination if they tried to warp to a large object while inside that object’s safety perimeter.
MOONS? MOOOOOOOOOONS! Moons. (Moons have been added back into the scene)
