New features and Major Updates

• Added Ship Repair Terminals to Ship Designer Halls:
  
  • Flying a broken ship to the ship area will open repair costs to the terminal, and accepting the operation will repair the ship over a period of time depending on the amount of damage being fixed
    The ship will essentially become a clean copy of the blueprint. This means any changes, for example in YOLOL chips, will also revert.
    
  • You can only have one ship being repaired at once
    
  • Any items that are not part of the ship's blueprint or are in its cargo will be moved to the station storage automatically. If there is no space in storage, items are deleted instead. Warnings are shown in terminal for both cases
    
  • You will gain crafting points for any parts that are repaired and you have unlocked in research already
    
  • Easy Build ships are not supported yet
  
  
• All new inventory windows (equipment, backpack and station storage) can now be opened with the default keybind "I":
  
  • In Settings -> Controls -> Menu, you can find multiple new keybind options for these new inventory windows (keybinds for different window combos as well as the option to have all of these windows opened with separate keybinds):
    
    • Backpack, Equipment and Station inventory (Default)
      
    • Backpack
      
    • Equipment
      
    • Station inventory
      
    • Backpack and Equipment
      
    • Backpack and Station inventory
      
    • Equipment and Station inventory
    
    
  • The old inventory is still in the game for now, but it doesn't have a default keybind anymore. The old inventory keybind can be set in Settings -> Controls -> Menu -> Old inventory if needed.
  
  
• Reworked Insurance Transfer UI in terminals and ESC menu:
  
  • All transfer points that exist at the same station are now grouped up to a submenu, under an UI element with the specified station's name
    
    • Allowing for much more transfer points than what was previously possible with the old menu
    
    
  • Transfer Panels also have buttons to better control the transfer points with "Unlink this terminal", "Unlink Location" and "Unlink Selection"
  
  
• Reworked rotation system:
  
  • The rotation system in-universe now has similar controls to Easy Build Mode to unify the control schemes more. The rotation system uses 15 degree increments.
    
  • The controls are visible on a controls HUD element that can be minimized if needed
    
  • Two methods of scroll rotation: you can toggle between horizontal rotation according to player or object orientation.
    
  • The orientation of the last 5 placed single items and modules is remembered and used when another copy is taken in hand
    
  • "R" can be used to reset the orientation of one axis based on current orientation, or double clicking it to completely reset the piece
    
  • The old rotation system binds for X, Y and Z axis rotations and rotating the object with player movement are unbound by default, but can be manually set from control settings
    
  • Large objects can no longer spawn on top of the player upon grabbing, and the range they have been pushed to is remembered when new copies are taken in hand
    
  • "F" is now default for pick up, and "P" is default pick up and equip to bring item manipulation controls closer to each other
  
  
• Station Build Mode improvements:
  
  • You can now build long lines of modules by holding down the placement bind and moving, or by moving the cursor in cursor mode
    
  • Choosing a module or station single piece from the quickbar automatically turns on Build Mode
    
  • You can use the pick up bind to take a copy of the pointed object from your station storage in your hand
    
  • Welding or unwelding single items to stations is now disabled. Single items now use the same automatic welding upon placement and M2 removal as other modules instead.
    
  • Single items in Build Mode use the same rotation scheme as single items outside of Build Mode, rotating in 15 degree increments.
    
  • The controls are visible on a controls HUD element that can be minimized if needed
    
  • Large objects can no longer spawn on top of the player upon grabbing, and the range they have been pushed to is remembered when new copies are taken in hand
    
  • Note: there are some snapping issues present on the single items in Build Mode from the changes (snapping inside other objects, snapping some distance away from objects) that are currently under work

Auction House

• Items listed in the Auction House buy tab categories are now the only items allowed to be auctioned
  
• Fixed an issue that caused the system message "Unable to open Auction House" to repeat itself
  

Company

• Company Owner can now manually give up Company Ownership to a player of their choosing from the Context menu. The owner who has stepped down is given the second highest rank instead.
  
  • If the Company Owner's account is deleted/banned, a new player is selected to be the new Company Owner
    
    • This is given to the second highest rank and prioritized by online status at the time of leader change
      
    • If multiple second highest rank members are online, the owner will be chosen at random. The same applies if all second highest rank members are offline (note: rank is prioritized over online status in these cases).
