It's been awhile!

First thing's first: let's all give a big thanks to our testing crew who helped bug-hunt, troubleshoot, and just generally prep the changes that just went out.

So we had a few weeks between updates, but plenty was happening behind the scenes.  Onto the details!

Updates

New Planet View

The view for individual planets has been updated.  Along with a simplified layout, several player actions can now be taken without having to swap in and out of the planet summary.

New System View

The view for individual systems has been updated.  Along with a simplified layout, players can now send multiple exploration ships where relevant.

New Map!

The entire galactic map has been rewritten.  This fixes a few annoying issues:

• Certain "phantom" systems would not show up on the map.

• Mouse-Scrolling horizontally on PC would not work.

• Zoom functionality was missing.

Public-Facing Map/System/Planet Views

In an effort to better showcase IC to potential new players, game data is now viewable without being logged in or even having an account.  A few examples from Milky Way 54:

* The Map
* System 29,86
* Planet 29,86:2

Bug Fixes

stationed explos/can send multiple e-ships to 0-tickers

The prior maps (both pre and post redesign) would not forbid you from sending multiple e-ships to 0-tickers.  This would lead to unexpected stationing of the extra ships.
