Changes:

  • Mostly re-done the chase camera mode, should be a lot easier to make fine adjustments to your heading, fly straight and aim.
  • Info display now opens on click instead of mouse hover.

Fixes:

  • Space stations now spin around their center of mass.
  • Loading a ship without anything selected no longer changes your ship into a command pod.
