2019 August 6 patch notes

These are the  patch notes for 2019 August 6.

Pre-release version 0.80

 * Richter stole patch 0.79 so you’re not missing anything.
 * Trion Accelerator & Photon Cannon have new unique artwork
 * Performing numeric entry in paint program and then exiting to rename ship would leave text entry in numeric mode (but not any more!)
 * Paint tool tooltips are bigger *Paint tool numeric entry is much easier to read
 * MFG Crosswind recognized properly as pedals
 * Slight volume boost to commercials
 * Very slight volume reduction to enemy fighter hull ‘clunk’
 * Additional scene lighting tweaks in various conversations
 * A few NPC character geometry tweaks for clipping
 * EMP Javelin will be available in Bountiful Vista Equipment Bay in the event that the special mission version is inadvertently sold
 * EMP Javelin title also has a star in front of it to make it stand out as ‘special’ more clearly
 * Fixed a potential crash AFTER you died on death screen if another ship completed tractoring an object
 * Leaving Richter’s mission areas after he has said to leave but before the mission has fully completed does not result in mission failure. That Richter is a real joker.

Pre-release version 0.78

 * Fixed crash in certain circumstances when breaking out of sublight due to atmospheric burn
 * Fixed potential crash with certain stencil textures at certain zoom levels when painting near the edge in paint tool
 * Some new stripe stencils added to paint shop
 * Made a few instanced entity destruction that weren’t threadsafe…well, threadsafe
 * PS4 button art revised, and missing art added
 * PS4 button art on PC properly shows Share button instead of Pad
 * Fixed ESC not saving when using it to exit paint tool
 * Radar and Jumpdrives cannot be destroyed, only damaged – not only was it annoying, it was potentially catastrophic in unpopulated systems.
 * Some lighting tweaks for various scenes and some minor character art tweaks
 * Disable Transitions setting won’t be unavailable immediately after performing gamepad mapping
 * A few minor spelling fixes

Pre-release version 0.77

 * Setting tips to OFF is now properly respected. We thrashed the tips into subservience.
 * Can click on radio comm options with mouse again
 * Shadow acne on some station exteriors when in 3rd person and in lower shadow settings or when in fullscreen windowed but at lower target resolution is fixed
 * Cycle MFD button now properly shows as Cycle MFD/Secondary Context in key mapping screens
 * Some siege mission descriptions that could have a duplicate word ‘station’ in them are fixed (once they regenerate)
 * Orzu’s side mission Warning Shot – freighter no longer armed, and accidental police death doesn’t decrement disabled ship count, but instead fails mission properly
 * Fixed some dangling disconnected hoses in a garage scene.
