The first BETA 2 pre-release is now available. BETA 2 sees the return of Ticeroy and Druminence factions with all new ships, stations and we've also thrown in some new components just for them. Along with the return of these beloved (or hated) factions is a complete overhaul to how access works. The new Ownership and Access system gives new control over systems like inventory, components, manufacturing and more. We hope this is a welcome change especially for those venturing out with others. Thanks to all those bug hunters out there in the community this release should fix several bugs (more fixes to come). As always for those that do check out the build please let us know your thoughts via the forums or on our discord If you would like to check out this pre-release build all the usual things apply, it will have problems (some of which we know about) and it may break your universe.
