      * Changed some missions to take advantage of the new conversation action behavior. (@Amazinite)
      * Greatly reduced the threshold on the raid warning mission for players with high pirate attraction fleets from about 50% to about 14%. (@Amazinite)

      * Altered the default equation for when a ship becomes disabled to become continuous. The lowest-hull ships still become disabled at about 45% remaining hull, but the highest-hull ships approach a threshold of 10% hull remaining instead of all ships over 4,500 hull becoming disabled at 15%. This results in most human ships becoming disabled slightly earlier while higher health alien ships become disabled slightly later. (@Ferociousfiend)
      * Buffed the Heavy Shuttle while also increasing its price to make it more of a midpoint between the Shuttle and the Scout or Bounder rather than having a massive price gap between the Shuttle and Heavy Shuttle and the aformentioned ships. (@Zitchas)
      * Buffed the cargo and bunk capacities of civilian Coalition ships to make them more appealing compared to when you're likely to reach them. (@Arachi-Lover)

      * Lowered the offer requirements on more lucrative jobs in human space. (@Terin)
      * Increased the Lampyrid's number of bunks to match the source material. (@Zitchas)
      * Archons now ramp up significantly in strength when threatened. (@Zitchas)
    * Graphics:
      * Created a new planet sprite for Saturn. (@ravenshining)
      * Remodeled all Navy ships. (@JanErikAhrens)
      * Created a new effect for the nuke explosion. (@Karirawri)
      * Remodeled the nuclear missile. (@JanErikAhrens)

      * Added reverse and steering flares to the Lampyrid. (@Zitchas)
      * The Remnant now become hostile when scanned and lose reputation on a completed scan or when a drone is destroyed. (@Zitchas)
      * Standardized the habitable range of all systems given the star of each system. Some systems have had their planets moved around to compensate for this. (@Amazinite)

      * Committing an atrocity now only affects the reputation of governments friendly to the government that the atrocity was committed against. (@Amazinite)

      * Systems can now define multiple asteroid belts. Asteroid belts can be given weights that determine the likelihood of asteroids appearing in that belt. (@Amazinite)
      * Whether an outfit is determined to have been mined from an asteroid is now handled by a positive "minable" attribute instead of being assumed from a negative "installable" attribute. (@Terin)
      * Jobs that have been offered but not yet accepted can no longer be accepted if all of the job's requirements are no longer met (e.g. have the proper outfit(s) installed, have enough credits for any negative payment), instead of only checking for cargo and passenger space. (@quyykk)
  * User interface:
    * Pilot playtime is now visible in the player info panel. (@Terin)
    * The map is now able to be opened when at the end of a conversation. (@Amazinite)
    * The player info panel now displays the current amount of combat experience and the amount of experience needed to reach the next level instead of just displaying the current level. (@Terin)

  * Changes to game mechanics:
    * Added support for "persons" - unique ships with custom hail messages, e.g Cap'n Pester.

Version 0.8.1:
  * Bug fixes:
    * Fixed a bug that made it impossible to select a secondary weapon that is your very first outfit.
    * Made the scroll wheel affect the column the mouse is hovering over in the load / save panel.
    * Fixed the Windows random number generator to not produce the same fleets every time you visit a given system.
    * Fixed a bug where paying a bribe could result in negative credits.
    * Additive blending now works correctly for @2x (high resolution) sprites.
  * Changes to game mechanics:
    * Disabled escorts are no longer lost if you land; instead they just remain where they are, disabled.
    * Missions that can't be completed yet due to an NPC requirement or waypoint are now "dimmed out."
    * Added the ability to mark missions as "minor" so they will not interrupt story line missions.
    * Modified the AI to leave disabled ships alone (unless it plunders them).
  * Improved graphics:
    * Replaced some landscape images with higher-resolution ones.
    * Replaced most of the space station landscape images with NASA images.
    * Modified some projectile sprites to be more detailed.
    * Switched the colors of the mission pointers to be easier for color blind people to distinguish.
    * Toned down the brightness of the galaxy backdrop image in the map.
  * Development:
    * Added a debug mode (-d / --debug).
    * Made the slow-motion key (caps lock) and pause key (backtick) only work in debug mode.
  * Optimization:
    * Added a limit of 20 landscapes loaded at once, to reduce memory usage.

Version 0.8.0:
  * First stable release.
