- Currently, I'm busy moving, so I'm gonna be off for an entire week. No more graphics can be done until then.
+ Coder is still working though, so there's actually a lot of stuff going on.
+ Enjoy these high-quality images provided by the coder, complete with temp assets, and floaty numbers.
+ Upgrading to a beastly rig soon though, so technically rendering will be faster.
- Supply collection is actually really hammering our pathfinding system, so we may indeed need to try to implement flow fields, which we had wanted to avoid.
+ Here is the current music for anyone that wants a listen:

+ Distant object optimizers can properly disable particle systems now too.
+ Nebulas can now suppress sun lights by a specified factor, instead of just recoloring them.
+ Added 21 new transport turret variants and added those variants to the spawning lists.
+ Resized AI equipment because it was way too fucking big.
+ Fixed some material errors on freighters.
+ Rearranged AI hardpoints on ships to actually show up.
+ Adjusted camera settings on various ships to fit better.
+ Fixed issue where contrails on ships were persisting far too long, leading to potential memory issues.
+ Replaced graphics on zombie transports.
+ Contact and equipment buttons no longer occlude the scroll view and in general perform much better.
+ Changed naming schemes on screenshots to sort better.
+ Completely redid spawning logic for NPCs so that they’d consistently spawn near the player and not in stupid places and implemented new effects for them.
+ Increased detection range on ships by 80%.
+ Additional space lobsterage.
+ Redid logic and code for character customization, allowing for more kinds of things such as material swaps or disabling body parts, and more internally consistent logic on character customization.
+ Started to create a bunch more items for basic character customization.
+ Synchronized body parts and players on stations in multiplayer.

First check in, have basics of how weapon systems work implemented as well as hit detections, movement, hud and hud fancy things. Ready to start working on stage/tile interactions and how all of that will work. Overcomplicated things for a while in my head but figured out an easier way to make it work by just using a couple hitbox detection configurations depending on whether the tile is a slope or a half or full size tile.

+ fixed bug with space bar and dialogue causing player to jump at the end
+ replaced sound effects with better ones and fixed them to trigger correctly

fixed alpha

+ Baddies punch now
+ Primary/secondary attacks now map to correct hands
+ Player and AI refactored to remove duplicate code
- Punch animation is still awful, looks even worse when AI does it
