| Some updates:
Changes: - Updated exoplanets catalog (18 Oct 2015) - Camera motion mode or controlled ship is restored after closing of the Map Mode - Added ability to cancel autopilot "Warp to" and "Fly to" commands - Added switch between full and abbreviated names of constellations - Smoother crater rim profile (by Klud)
Bugfixes: - Fixed rings blending with clouds and atmosphere - Fixed seam artefact in rings - Fixed star sprite in a barycenter - Fixed star density in Milky Way - Fixed inability to select a deepspace object as a refbody/target for a ship using GUI buttons - Fixed bug with star particle visible through black hole - Fixed various rendering bugs in the Map Mode
Constellation names switch is added to the Player menu. The system is made similar to Greek letters: like code 'ALF' in the catalog object's name is replacing with Greek letter alpha, so code 'And' is now replaced with word 'Adromedae'. Constellation names are listed in the localization file, so translators now have a lot of work :)

What can I say? The advancemets made for this version are phenomenal! This should be called version 0975. Thank You Space Engineer! Can't wait to try this patch out.

| Wow, and it's only been what, two weeks? Slow down, man, you're going to give us heart attacks xD
EDIT: Ah. Okay, so these are just the features you have ready to go into the next patch. Makes sense. Color me hyped then.

If he will implement walk mode and fix the remaining bugs, I think it can also be named 0.9.8, since the advancements from the 0.9.7.0 are a lot, reversed z-buffer is probably the greatest one.

| Quote Salvo (  ) 1.9.7.0 I bet you are referring to 0.9.7.0 ... But really in my opinion this version of 974 deserves to be called 0.9.8.

Do you mean there aren't any black holes or neutron stars at all in your game? Have you tried using the star browser?
All you need in life are space games and typhlosions.

Huh, that's weird. Unfortunately I don't know why that would happen, sorry.

| I second the 0.9.8 motion. He seems to be getting into ever smaller version numbers and it makes it seem like 1.0.0.0 is an asymptote he'll never actually reach xD
Or if everyone prefers we could go on to have 0.9.9.9, 0.9.9.9 beta 9, 0.9.9.9 beta 9.9, etc....
