 ===== Latest Public Release =====
-**Version 0.39** — Released July 16, 2026
+**Version 0.42** — Released August 5, 2026
-Update 0.39 improves control, the first-session flow, NPC behavior, and sector performance. It adds configurable keybindings and consistent Steam Deck controls, while making the first jump clearer and tightening pirate behavior, Blueprint handling, and a range of smaller systems.
+Update 0.42 introduces a three-layer protection system on ships and stations, procedural NPC loadouts, armed sector stations, and a unified red enemy indicator in sector map and minimap.
 Highlights:
-  * **Full keybinding system** — separate keyboard-and-mouse and controller layouts with globally saved custom bindings
+  * **Three-layer protection system** — Damage now hits shield, then armor, then hull on ships and stations
-  * **Improved onboarding and first jump** — clearer start flow, complete starting equipment, direct ship selection, and safer jump validation
+  * **Procedural NPC loadouts** — Hand-crafted NPC ship prefabs replaced by hull templates plus danger-level-driven, energetically valid slot loadouts
-  * **Steam Deck controls** — standardized Xbox-compatible controller mapping with optional trackpad and back-button bindings
+  * **Armed sector stations** — The 11 normal and 7 exotic inhabited sector stations become independent combat prefabs that fight pirates autonomously
-  * **Performance and NPC improvements** — camera-aware sector particles, pooled effects, cleaner NPC sleep states, and more efficient sector updates
+  * **Unified red enemy indicator** — Hostile ships and stations are marked in red across object list, minimap, sector map, and world name
-  * **Blueprint and pirate improvements** — more reliable Blueprint handling, corrected Blueprint weapon accuracy, and pirates that abandon pursuits more reliably
