GENERAL TWEAKS & FIXES :
Spoiler:
- Various network optimisations
- Persist the Ship Lights option through location transitions, but not save/load
- If the refinery is idle and has a non-empty hopper, try to reallocate these materials to the bins
- Fixed high ranked AI ships not being able to fire due to empty WEP capacitor!
- Pressing enter when going into the outfitting will result in no ui being shown fixed
- Fix hole in Hauler cockpit geometry
- Diamondback Explorer Image in the contact panel was missing now fixed
- Docking computer failure at station type Orbis fixed
- Added a case to handle WM_MENUCHAR messages, which were causing the system to beep when Alt+Key combinations were pressed
- Local Cartographic Data Filters not working fixed
- Adjustments to how penetrating shots work:
- If no standard penetration depth is set for a ship, use 75% of its size in the smallest axis (rather than 100m). As no ships actually had this value set this will stop shots going all the way through ships to hit modules at the back
- Remove spurious increased penetration distance from medium beam turrets
- Railguns now have extreme penetration distance (will pierce to any module on any ship)
- News ticker can now be clicked to jump to a particular news item
- Unable to select system with mouse fixed
- Landing gear speed limiter is now tied to the landing gear toggle rather than what the gears are actually doing
- Prevent Hardpoints being told to fire when docked
- Fix issues where the station doesn't retaliate when being shot
- Edits to dirt and scratch maps to work with new white underpaint colour on Imperial ships
- Co-pilot seat added to external view for Python
- Fix for LAN connection issues (after conencting over lan, if both players had upnp enabled, it was switching back to wan connection)
- Fix for problem where drones delivering cargo canisters belonging to another authority would scan for new targets and pick the same canister
- Fix for NPC miner loadouts that are missing refineries
- Fix for NPC pirate loadouts that are missing cargo scanners
- Fix for merging islands in supercruise - changes in scanner range (due to acceleration) were not being handled correctly
- Fix spawning fighters from capital ships
- Make sure police escorts get police names, rather than random NPC names
- Stop pirates from scanning target after they've pirated it
- Miners check their refinery while mining and if it's destroyed they'll jump away
- If NPC hull is below 20% when being spawned in supercruise don't try and interdict anybody
- Removed some rogue geometry in Sidewinder cockpit that was resulting in a thin purple line in front of the camera
- Fixes to police response:
- update formulae for strength/delay calculation to match latest design numbers
- investigation strength hard limited to calculated value, previously could go over rather than leave a remainder; reinforcement can still go over
- don't try and respond to crime in supercruise
- correctly set the limit on investigation ships to be the score of a viper, fixes only getting the lowest-scored ships for investigations
- Don't allow NPCs to interdict if the target is charging their hyperspace drive - previously only blocked the interdiction during the actual countdown
- When the lead of an NPC wing dies and a new NPC is chosen, re-run the code that choose their chatter table so that it uses the correct one
- Request routing data from the server as soon as we receive a sync letter from an unknown machine - may fix some connection issues
- Allow pirates with low hull to dock at non-anarchy stations - gives them something to do as they can't interdict

- Added 'Shader preparation on startup' option to the 'graphic options' screen
- Re-mapped part of the back of the landing pad skirts to break up the repetition of a texture
- Police Hunter Hostile ships will scan their target after interdicting it, rather than opening fire immediately
- Increase health values for Diamondback cockpits
- Updated the pirate lord to have a better pirate-y loadout, he had no interdictor or cargo scanner
- Galaxy Map Trade Route 'Clear' button cannot be easily access via gamepad fixed

The Reboot/Repair sequence is now able to repair powerplants to restore full functionality

- Fixed buying exploration data when then only thing a Commander knows about a star system is its name

- Support multiple conflicts within a given starsystem. However, one minor faction can still only be involved in a single conflict, no matter how many
starsystems they're present in.
- Fixed some minor faction economic states so they once again affect influence levels
- Minor faction conflict states can now take precedence over economic states, which should fix many one sided conflicts
