Hey everyone,

it's been a while since launch now, so we thought it was about time for a little content patch to come your way! Today we're adding and fixing lots of smaller stuff, but the main focus of this update is going to be adding crew, pirates and bodies floating in space!

Once you've destroyed a ship, there used to not be much left of it after. We always wanted to add more debris and give you the feeling that you can gobble up some more reward once you've destroyed a target. So now, now when you blow up someone, there's a good chance you'll see them (or at least their remains) floating around in space after. You can even fly over and tractor them up! There is also a good chance some parts of the ship are salvageable as tradeable goods, usually Titanium, but occasionally also more valuable things!

When you go exploring derelicts and find survivors or deceased inside, you will now also find those bodies outside for optional tractor-beam rescue. Later, you can fly anyone you captured/collected in derelicts or in battle over to a station and unload them for some pricey rewards.

There's a whole lot more, like some pretty cool water effects on Jelnu station, Nebula Jellies now protecting you, and some sweet new warp effects. We've also fixed a bunch of things, mostly because of your great feedback on the forums! Here's the complete list:
