Release 1.2.0 - It's All Quarg to Me

Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays, everyone! Four months after I said it would be ready, it's finally time for another release of Blended Ships.

This release adds three new spliced ships (the Hare, Khosakaska, and Moissanite), along with a number of bug and typo fixes and some backend improvements to make my life easier. It also adds full Omnis support, so you can now duel a nuke Barquentine just like you've always wanted to!

Thank you to @TheGiraffe3 for contributing changes to this release.

As always, please report bugs or request new ships in the issues or on the Endless Sky Discord server. For a full list of changes in this release, see the changelog.

I'm hoping to release Blended Ships 1.3 in April, but we'll see about that.

Release 1.1.0 - Little Things

It's time for another release of Blended Ships!

This release is a relatively minor one. There are no new ships, but there are several tweaks to pleasure craft—most notably, all three of the pleasure craft now have their own images!

This release also addresses the mass rebalance introduced to ES in version 0.10.7. All the ships should now behave normally again, although they might not act exactly the way they used to.

As always please, report bugs or request new ships in the issues or on the Endless Sky Discord server.

Version 1.2.0 should be released soon™, which probably means near the end of August. I do plan to include more ships in that release, maybe including some Wanderer, Pug, Gegno, and Bunrodea splices.

Release 1.0.0 - Blended Ships

After nearly a year and a half of work (and 365 days since its first release), the time has finally come for the first major release of Blended Ships!
As it currently stands, this plugin features fourteen ship splices, plus three pleasure craft variants of existing ships and some minor tweaks to vanilla missions.

Version 1.0.0 features:

• Three new ships (the Barquentine, Hornet, and Trident)
• One new pleasure craft (the Partisan)
• A couple of minor tweaks and bug fixes

Thank you to everyone who has supported this project on Discord, especially Banana Scone, Zoura, and Pilcrow. Also, special thanks to @warp-core for this GitHub Action which let me automate my testing process and catch issues I wouldn't have found otherwise.

As always, report bugs or request new ships in the issues or on the Endless Sky Discord server.

If all goes well, I plan to release version 1.1.0 over the summer. No promises, but it might include custom sprites for the pleasure craft.

Stable Release 0.3.0 - Refraction

After far too long, the time has finally come for a stable release! Blended Ships 0.3.0 is the most polished release yet, featuring:

• Three new ships, including a long-awaited pleasure craft carrier
• Regular spawns for pleasure craft
• Updates to match current plugin metadata and Omnis conventions
• More than twenty minor bugfixes

Enjoy! The next release of Blended Ships is coming soon™.
As always, report bugs or request new ships either here or on the Endless Sky Discord server.

Special thanks to Banana Scone, Zoura (Avian Geneticist), Ebreus, and (you can't escape this) Darcy Manoel for ship splice suggestions over the past three releases.

Unstable Release 0.2.0 - Automation

Well, it looks like it's time for another release of Blended Ships! This release features four new ships — the Models 2 and 192, the Star General, and the Ant — along with several bug fixes.

This is still an unstable release, but it's slightly less unstable. 0.3.0 is planned to be a stable release, containing another splice or two, a pleasure craft carrier, and some bug fixes.

Special thanks to Zoura for inspiration for the Ant, and Ebreus for suggesting the Star General splice.

As always, please submit any bug reports or ship splice suggestions here or on the Endless Sky Discord.

Unstable Release 0.1.0 - Chop Shop

This is the first public release of Blended Ships! It's still unstable, so please share any bugs you find with me on the issues page here or on the Endless Sky Discord server.

This release introduces four new ships (Eagle, Grackle, Rawalpindi, and Woodchip) in human space, as well as two "pleasure craft" variants of existing ships that are not hyperspace-capable (Flivver Lo-V and Hyperlight Shuttle).

Special thanks to Banana Scone and Zoura (AvianGeneticist) for their suggestions for the Grackle and Rawalpindi.
