Status Update (March 28)
We are still trying to jam in all the new traffic script and reputation features into this release. I am pained to say that it will be May 1st or so before we are ready to begin Beta testing.
On the positive side, Unstable Space is getting really cool. And adding these features has closed several of the more annoying things that happened in the Middle States release (like PS traffic tugs attacking the player at random). I was just reading the "known bugs" list in the Middle States release and we have closed them all! Progress is wonderful!
The capsule jump replacement is also looking very good. What was once a cutscene of flying down a tube filled with glowing lights is now a fully playable simulation. You can just make out the bubble surrounding the player ship.
