TWEAK: First persion animation tweaks
SHIPS:
BUG FIX: 300i collision fixes
BUG FIX: fixing aurora controls deployment with new animations and also fixing initial ik offset on the left joystick
BUG FIX: constellation turret seat actions enabled
BUG FIX: glass shader on the aurora
BUG FIX: setting up joystick yank animation on initial enter and also setting up look ik to work again in the hornet
UPDATE: broke apart the bottom turret chair and animated it.
TWEAK: main thruster animation tweaks
TWEAK: constellation lighting rig has been updated.
HANGAR:
BUG FIX: interior floor collisions
BUG FIX: fixed crashes when exiting or changing levels while in a vehicle seat due to registered listeners not unregistering themselves
UPDATE: updated with the new elevator button placement
TWEAK: ship lighting tweaks
TWEAK: adjusted the decals in the deluxe hangar.
TWEAK: a few small lighting optimizations.
The thing so far that's given me the biggest boner:
Many of Star Citizen’s ships, such as the Freelancer or Constellation, feature positions for multiple crewmen. Players will always be able to hire NPC crewmen in the game, contracting computer-controlled crews to help man turrets, run consoles and fly escort. If you would like the option of customizing your crew, you can create your own NPCs by using a Game Character slot. You will go through the same character creation process as your player character but will then have the option of handing off control to an AI.
I just hope there are ways to get other slots other than buying the game again or multiple pledge packages.
Edit:
Players who would like additional Game Character slots, either to create a second player character or to build a customized crew, but don’t have multiple packages will be have the option of a stand-alone Character Slot purchase from the pledge store without having to buy a full game package.
So hopefully it doesn't cost too much. I really want at least one customized crewman. It also looks like you can gift extra character slots if you don't need/want all of the ones you have.
So we get stiff once in a while. So we have a little fun. What’s wrong with that? This is a free country, isn’t it? I can take my panda any place I want to. And if I wanna buy it a drink, that’s my business.
The focus on duders is a bit annoying, but at least their one render of a woman astronaut isn't an oversexualized physical impossibility.
You take that back. How am I supposed to know what to objectivize if all the chicks aren't all wearing space-bathing-suits, skin-tight spandex, and/or have boob armor to emphasize how they are both feminine and tough (but really just built to look like eye candy)?
Though it's going to be pretty funny when it's a space game is one of the few games with female characters that just... people-looking, not Barbie-looking with delusions of serious design. A space game from a genre the publishing industry considered dead.
so I guess I don't understand the point of the explorer role. I thought characters could already do whatever they wanted....
Basically you fly around looking for stuff like uncharted jump points, derelict ships and alien artifacts. Specialized equipment helps locate such objects. Uncharted jump points are super dangerous the first time through but the danger is mitigated by certain upgrades. If you're the first to discover something you get to name it. Roles are pretty much defined by what you're flying and how it's kitted out so you're not forced into a narrowly defined role. A good example is many explorers will probably also want to salvage.

I could see an explorer role being 1000% useful and profitable. Kit out a ship for long-haul flight and small-scale salvage, go way far out from where most people are, have explorer scanner systems that check an area for finds, find something good, take a bit for yourself, then return to civilized space and sell the coordinates based on the haul left behind.
It both lets people explore for fun and lets people cut right to good finds if they have cash and don't like to explore.

That kind of reminds me of a more modern take on the old Starflight II game. I distinctly remember the most effective way to make money in that game was plot a course to the ass-end of the galaxy and start charting habitable worlds. I might have to also pick up some kind of long-range, deep space explorer ship to round out my combat-heavy hangar...

I already have a character family tree ready to go! Let's do this.
Yeah, I think all my old EVE Online characters are going to be making a comeback. In my head I'm naming Star Citizen "The new adventures of Macks Artilius - Space Hobo".
And of course my trading alt, Skinflint Parsimonious, the most generous of men.

The Kinsikor crime family is absolutely making a return in this game. Ivan will be busy blowing shit up while Natasha operates the industrial side of the business. I need to remember wtf I named my research alt though.

Yeah, that lower turret on the Connie is a bit awkward.
...and when you are done with that; take a folding
chair to Creation and then suplex the Void.
I love that they're going with an accurate representation of women in this game. Some of them may purposely wear slightly smaller flight suits, but they still get covered in the same gear that I do.
have an option to purchase a skin that puts them in a chainmail bikini except that's underneath an irremovable layer of clothing so only you know that she's wearing a chainmail bikini. That will sadly make more money if it has any right to

I can totally see that happening, and now I wonder if space prostitution is going to happen ala ERP...

There's at least one more woman in the concept art: image
I like that she's not wearing space-s&m gear, but I don't think much of her tailor. She's got a big diagonal slice though her outfit. There are a bunch of reasons why we don't have designs like that now, starting with it's a dumb idea.
I mean, just imagine trying to live with clothes like that. It's a stupid design.

But it's a space slice thanks to space tailoring so it's still totally functional.

Erotic RolePlay, and probably.
It was that somehow, from within the derelict-horror, they had learned a way to see inside an ugly, broken thing... And take away its pain.
