<description>
<p>Explore other star systems. Earn money by trading, carrying passengers, or completing missions. Use your earnings to buy a better ship or to upgrade the weapons and engines on your current one. Blow up pirates. Take sides in a civil war. Or leave human space behind and hope to find some friendly aliens whose culture is more civilized than your own...</p>
<p>Endless Sky is a sandbox-style space exploration game similar to Elite, Escape Velocity, or Star Control. You start out as the captain of a tiny spaceship and can choose what to do from there. The game includes a major plot line and many minor missions, but you can choose whether you want to play through the plot or strike out on your own as a merchant or bounty hunter or explorer.</p>

</release>
<release type="development" version="0.10.0" timestamp="1676764800" urgency="low">
<description>
<p>This is an unstable release, containing big changes that may introduce new bugs.</p>
<p>Breaking changes:</p>
<ul>
<li>The accompany objective on mission npcs no longer implicitly sets the save objective.</li>
<li>Plugin missions that had "accompany" but not "save" should be changed to include "save" if the intention of the mission is that the npcs live.</li>
<li>This is a change that was made in v0.9.16, reverted in v0.9.16.1, and has been reintroduced.</li>
</ul>
<p>Major new changes include:</p>
<ul>
<li>Two new alien factions, the Gegno and Bunrodea.</li>
<li>A plethora of new conditions and new ways to use them, including the introduction of "global conditions" that can be set and accessed across save files.</li>
<li>Improvements to how ship AI behaves, more intelligently making use of the range of their weapons. More AI improvements will come in the future.</li>
<li>An overhaul to how cargo and outfit scanners function, causing scanning to take overall longer to complete.</li>
<li>The jobs board can now be sorted on various metrics, including how much the job pays or whether it has a deadline.</li>
<li>Improved mouse control while in flight, including the ability to select secondary weapons by clicking on their ammo icons, and a toggle for controlling flagship aiming and firing with the mouse.</li>
<li>Reverted the heat damage change from v0.9.15, and reduced the buffs provided to afterburners from that same update.</li>
<li>Added a deadline to bounty jobs so that they cannot be stacked infinitely and finished passively. In exchange, bounty ships now don't spawn as far away, and bounty job payments are increased.</li>
</ul>
<p>Some notable bug fixes include:</p>
<ul>
<li>Reloading your save file while you have escorts in a different system that are carrying mission cargo will no longer teleport the mission cargo to the player's location.</li>
<li>Reloading your save file while in the middle of a conversation will no longer repeat execute the mission actions that run alongside the conversation.</li>
<li>Captured ships will no longer require the save file to be reloaded in order for them to make use of their weapons.</li>
</ul>
<p>There's much more in the changelog!</p>
