*New Content Added*

**Restart Optional. But if you want to experience the new content, you need to start a new game.**


*Added new Custom Solo Missions to all Starter Planets:

• Fallen Mining Ship (Orbital/Space POI Mission)
  
• Counter Strike III (Planetary Mission)

*Updated Sector Yaml changing the distance from the folloing to the Sun from 2 to 20:

• [Sun Front]
  
• [Sun Back]
  
• [Sun Top]
  
• [Sun Bottom]
  
• [Sun Right]
  
• [Sun Left]

*Added POI ProgenitorArtifacts to all Starter Moon playfields (for hidden PDA mission to function).

*Re-enabled solo missions on Tropical Starter Planet.

*Added new Custom Space POI to various Orbital Playfields: Fallen Mining Ship, by Ravis

*Removed 1 unecessary line from one of the Oribtal Starter Playfields (SpaceOrbitStarterOTG)

*Hot Fix*

**Restart Required: Sorry, yes**
[Technically, your game save should work without a restart, but know that without a restart, if you leave the starting galaxy, you won't be able to return without a COQ that forces a quit. This appears to be the result of the 12.2 update]

*Updated Sector yaml to include newly required warp targets for starter galaxy:

• [Sun Front]
  
• [Sun Back]
  
• [Sun Top]
  
• [Sun Bottom]
  
• [Sun Right]
  
• [Sun Left]

*Minor Update*

Updated description, cloud and sky color of snow planet ByblovOTG

*Fixed Yaml issue for planet BylblovOTG (a late game stage planet) that sometimes could cause a COQ/Crash. Fixed.

Restart Optional, but if no restart, you cannot go to this planet without risking a COG/Crash.

This is NOT a starter planet; it is a snow planet and is one of the planets you cannot get to until late in the game.

*Minor Update*
*Fixed PDA Mission "Uncertain Outcomes" by updating the Orbital Trading Station

*Alpha 12.2 Update*

*Sorry folks, it looks like the Eleon Update [ 2020-06-19 Patch Alpha 12.1 (Build 2953) ] broke the game saves for the scenario before this update I did to 1.97.2.

*On 06/20/20, Eleon did another update [ 2020-06-19 Patch Alpha 12.1 (Build 2954) ], as did I. It appears that fixed the issue, but sorry, you still need to restart again.

*Note that my changes in this update were to the Custom Trader config file, nothing else, so that would not have broken it. Sorry you had to restart again.
