[10/4/2025]

• GalaxyMap added, Hit 'M' to toggle it.
• Authority logos now show to left of indicators
• New squad member / fleet status interface windows.
• Massive optimizations to AI and Weapon Controller code gaining an additional 20-30fps during fleet battles, also improved turret behavior.
• Procedural Background Nebula and Stars. Backgrounds have procedurally generated Density, Color, Rotation, Scale, Depth, and Transparency so that each sector will have a unique look.
• Procedurally Dynamic Lighting based on the Celestial Stars in the system. The Lights Intensity is defined by the distance from the star and its color is defined by the star type/star color. The ambient color is the reverse of the combined starlight's color for a cinematic look. Combined with the Procedural Nebulas this makes each sector look completely unique.
• Procedural Asteroid Spine Lines throughout the entire sector generated completely different for each sector.
• Fleet Combat with Squadrons and Fleet Leaders/Squadron Leaders. Complicated AI to divide rolls and targets.
• Explosion Effects for Ships during combat upon death.
• Pulse Drive system that allows fast travel throughout the sector.
