so we need to get the gravity and ships blowing up on hihg gravity things worked out and the autopilot to always work when docking

So, how approximately far we are from an alpha 9 release ?

Dunno. Some time I would guess. I think John is departing somewhat from my 'version 1.0' plan, where we aim for mostly FE2 feature parity plus a few juicy extras. This means there are some deeper changes in the pipeline, like dynamic, evolving universe. Probably the right thing to do.I might have a chin-wag with the other developers and see if a worthwhile alpha 9 could be done in the next month or so.

absolutley no rush on alpha 9 have had a look at the progress and am satisfied an evolving universe will allow some of the exploration-colonization varied missions along the way

im guessing more developers if they can be found and coordianated would always be welcome as would ideas etc as development goes forward
