New Features:

• Objects window: A dedicated UI window lists every object currently detected within your sensor range, updated in real time as contacts enter or leave.
• Direct target designation: Mark a target from the new Objects window and your ship will automatically engage and fire on it.
• Automatic red alert: The red alert state now self-clears as soon as no enemies remain in sensor range.
• Sector-based economy: Each sector maintains its own supply and demand profile, so item prices shift per sector — where you buy and sell now matters.
• Localization overhaul: All translated text was revised for clarity, consistency, and tone across supported languages.
• CJK character update: The Chinese, Japanese, and Korean character sets were refreshed so newly localized strings render correctly.
