The Naev development team is proud to announce the release of Naev 0.5.2. This is mainly a bugfix release, though it also introduces a small amount of content in the form of missions and outfits.
The new asset discovery mechanics have bothered quite a few people, so we’ve introduced a jump scanner outfit that greatly increases jump detection range, as well as local maps which behave similarly to the traditional star maps found in 0.5.0 and earlier releases.
Now, as per usual it’s time for some statistics, from 0.5.1 to 0.5.2:
83 files changed, 2408 insertions(+), 574 deletions(-)
More than half of the added lines come from the dat/ directory tree, thanks in large part to a new event and a repeatable mission for the Sirius faction.

Did you guys put missions in Soromid space yet? Kinda hard to map out their space in-game when you keep running out of money for fuel ‘cuz there’s no way to earn more money without leaving their space.
AFAIK, now soromid are included in the generic cargo missions.
[...] a newly released version of Naev that adds new missions, outfits and [...]
Oh goodie. However, the ReadMe says it’s for OS X 10.6 and up on Macs. I’ve got 10.5.
@Spacey: Just because it adds new missions doesn’t mean they’re in Soromid space. One can assume as much, but one cannot be sure from that sentence alone.
Strange, despite the ReadMe claiming it won’t work on 10.5, it works fine on my computer in 10.5.8. You guys might wanna update the ReadMe.
Please update it on desura (or tell the staff there to do so ..) .. I’m too addicted to wait
The two Linux Desura branches are awaiting approval. Windows is in the wild already.
Thanks for the reply
