Features

• symmetry/mirror mode
• inventory
• jetpack movement ('Z' is now 'Damping on/off' for ships and jetpack)
• max speed is 104m/s for all objects

Fixes

• memory optimizations
• fixed nVidia Optimus problems (EDIT: actually not fixed yet... Optimus doesn't work as it's supposed to work... we are working on it)
• fixed crashes due to memory (when memory limit enabled)
• fixed crash with missing .NET library
• fixed crash in DirectX
• fixed character animations
• fixed saving/loading problems
• fixed 3rd person camera issues for ships
• fixed audio issues (including one type of black screen)
• fixed missing music sometimes after ALT+TAB
• updated localization

Detailed description:

Symmetry/mirror mode

• allows you to build symmetric structures, see tutorial how to use it
• allows you to set symmetry for each axis separately
• symmetry plane can be set in the middle of cube or between two cubes (aka odd or even)

Inventory

• inventory screen is available
• items can be moved between inventories
• you can throw out items (it has physics, reacts to gravity, can damage other objects)
• you can pick up items
• when you build a cargo container on a large ship or station, it contains random items
• each item will have specific purpose in future

Jetpack movement

• added damping On/Off ('Z' key)
• movement is now more realistic and similar to a small ship
• ship damping is now on 'Z' key too (to make it consistent)

Max speed

• jetpack, small ship and large ship has max speed 104 m/s
• you can exit moving small ship and float around

Memory optimizations

• you can build larger worlds now, bigger ships, etc. This applies to existing worlds as well. The optimization reduced memory usage to approx. 50%, so in theory you can build 2x bigger structures.
