v0.18
*Notes*
I'd like to thank Aurum for helping me with a bunch of issues i ran into, as well as BrummBear for letting me use his Split Raptor.
Credits for the Python and Viper go to Krychoke who is kind enough to let me make use of his models!

*Added*
- Centaur Mk2 (replacement for Centaur)
- New model for Gharial/Gharial Mk1
- Python
- Viper
- Sokotra (Freigther Variant)
- Skiron
- Some extra ships are now spawned on gamestart in various circumstances
- More traders/miners to most factions to compensate for increased ship building
- Proper wreck models for: Manticore, Basilisk, Griffon, Hatram, Sokotra
- New argon escort job entry to jobs.xml

*Changed*
- Scripted spawns are back again
- Increased the price of the Sokotra Plunderer
- Changed some XL ship related job IDs
- Baku can now be produced by the alliance
- Basilisk s-ship capacity reduced to 2
- Moved all SCA heavy frigates in a single group/job (with random selection)
- Griffon is now exclusive to the Antigone Republic
- Argon/Antigone and Split battleships should be placed more randomly now
- Argon Battleship should act more dynamic now (now commandeerable by faction ai)

*Fixed*
- Several errors in jobs.xml
- Several errors in ships.xml
- Missing Xenon R wreck
- Most ships not being spawned instantly on gamestart since the jobs-file rework
- SCA ships that are guarding the claimable sokotra plunderer not attacking the player (courtesy of EagleDelta)

v0.17 - Hotfix 3
*Notes*
Fixed an upload error since apparently i'm a fucking retard.

*Fixed*
- Not having removed the scripts i intended to remove it the last update

v0.17 - Hotfix 2
*Notes*
This is the second and (again) hopefully last hotfix to address the stuttering issue. After talking to UniTrader on the X-Discord it seems as the issue may be caused by the scripts used to spawn defensive fleets for some ship wrecks.
For the changes to take effect you may have to start a new game!

*Changed*
- Numbers of ships spawned via jobs.xml have been reverted to their original levels
- Gharial Mk1 and Sokotra now are now handled by a different script

*Removed*
- Defensive fleets and scripts for spawning XL derelicts (until further notice)

v0.17 - Hotfix 1
*Notes*
This is the first (and hopefully last) attempt at fixing the stuttering issue some people encounter. Yet since no one sent me actual logs or savegames there is only so much i can do. May require a new or a clean save to take effect.

*Changed*
- Numbers of ships spawned via jobs.xml:
The overall ship count was reduced by lowering the amount of: Bakus, Keas and Skuas (in total a few dozen instances)

*Fixed*
- Excessive debuglog spam from Hatram and Sokotra, caused by a missing parent mesh

v0.17
*Notes*
Some quite extensive changes have been made to the "lower layers" of the mod, not directly noticeable for users but for the engine.
Ships will no longer spawn as part of vanilla jobs but instead use their own ones.
This means that you will likely see more ships in total as the mods ships now spawn ON TOP of vanilla ships, and not INSTEAD of vanilla ships anymore.
In existing saves this may cause some factions to have more of a specifc ship class than intended (old ones + new ones) and may screw with balancing to some degree (but should not make anything unplayable as ships in old jobs should not be replaced upon destruction).
In new saves you may generally see "less" modded ships overall than before or in some cases more.
Even though the Centaur has been made unavailable existing ships will stick around until destruction or decommission, so keep yours safe!

The Buster has had all its file names changed and as such existing ships will be deleted when you update the mod and load a save.

For the best experience i recommend to start a new game, although it is not required.

A legacy version of the mod (should you want/need it) can be found here[www.dropbox.com].
Please note that the legacy version will no longer be supported and/or updated.

v.0.16
*Notes*
Due to how the game works a ship that can serve multiple roles at once sadly is not easily doable. Therefore i followed the suggestion to have dedicated versions of the same ship for different tasks. As such the Hatram is a pure trader now while the newly added Buster is its mining variant.
