• Added a description to the Sol star.
  
• Added a "Life Sig" indicator to the sensors, alongside the "Tech Sig" one.
  
• Moved the "Life" and "Tech" indicators into a more permanent position.
  
• Added Roche Limit calculation to the planet-gen, and also connected it up to the sensors output.
  
• Added Hill Radius calculation to the planet-gen, and also connected it up to the sensors output.
  
• Added Orbital Period calculation to the planet-gen, and also connected it up to the sensors output.
  
• Added Orbital Velocity calculation to the planet-gen, and also connected it up to the sensors output.
  
• Added a blacklist of bad words to the random alien name generator.
  
• Fixed the bug that was causing inhabited systems to have multiple hundreds of planets between the inhabited world and the star.
  
• Added Planet physical characteristics to the Sensors UI properly.
  
• Fixed atmospheric planets being too cold, based on some incorrect Bond Albedos and a lack of a greenhouse effect.
  
• Added equilibrium temperature to the Planet physical characteristics as an extra data point.
  
• Added Planet atmospheric data to the Sensors UI properly.
  
• Updated the "Tech" indicator on the Sensors UI so that it requires only Level 1 body knowledge (Long Range Survey).
  
• Updated the "Life" indicator on the Sensors UI so that it requires Level 3 body knowledge (Short Range Scan).
  
• Added a check to system/planet names so that Home Systems / Homeworlds are named distinctly from Occupied Systems / Occupied Worlds.
  
• Updated the Long Range target listing so that systems will now only show civilisation names when Level 3 knowledge exists.

With this update we are now one step closer to achieving the planned mechanics for detecting and exploring alien civilisations. In a nutshell it should work like this;

Step 1 - Perform Long Range surveys of the subsectors (1ly cubes) around your vessel.
Step 2 - Identify a "Tech Signature" associated with a planetary body on one of the surveys.
Step 3 - Plot a course to that system, and perform a Medium Range survey upon arrival to uncover more system detail.
Step 4 - Fly over to the planet with the tech signature and perform a Short Range scan to reveal its "Life" signature and details about that civilisation.

Right now the civ details box still needs to be added to the Planet details pane, but I'll be working on that for Sunday's build. In the future unlocking the full civ details will require a lot more work (performing science), but we're slowly getting there 🙂
