Some bug fixes and re-balancing. Thank you to players who have provided feedback! Fixed bug with new player Drone AI sometimes flying off into the void. Fixed a bug with Merchant NPC during random encounters, if the player is busy in conversation, and Pirates or Zerkers interrupt, it will now resume normal flight. The Starborn’s Corvette and Frigate had the RoF for Valiant Mk2 torpedoes reduced by 33%.
I just watched a couple of videos about sandbox vs themepark games (in particular one by NerdSlayer and another by Josh “Strife” Hayes )… One thing that struck me about the ways players often talk about this (because at this point the history is so old) is that people think of sandbox as the older version of MMOs, and themeparks as newer. But that’s not right – sandbox is not the older form.

You could chalk this up to nostalgia, but it also comes down to the classic techniques in animation that simply aren’t used anymore in commercial films. The most famous of these classic techniques is known as cel animation.

Paul Thomas Anderson is probably the most significant director of Hollywood from 2000-2010. In this relatively short period Anderson made only eight films and recently released his ninth, “Licorice Pizza” (2021), which was warmly received by critics.

Anderson manages to make each picture infinitely different from the previous one, without changing approach, themes or even faces.
