+'''New Episodes'''
+Work continues on a series of hand crafted story episodes, designed to pull new players into the game and provide some excellent adventures for existing players.
+* Black Hole Sun - Part 1
+* Black Hole Sun - Part 2
+* Black Hole Sun - Part 3
+* A wolf in Sheeps Clothing - Part 3
+'''New Tutorials'''
+These are short tutorials and are generally incorporated into the story episodes. But will pop up whenever you are trying to do these things for the first time:
+* Docking Tutorial
+* Mining Tutorial
+* Combat Tutorial
+* Crew transfer Tutorial
+'''Performance'''
+* Large improvement to drones when searching for repair works.
+* Reduced the particle density on ships arriving and departing, to help with performance
+* Make FindNearby only look at given layer and given object type if object type given. Helps with drone performance.
+* Calculate incoming quantities of each container only once in TryStoreCargo, improves WorkQueue Update performance.
+'''Text Input'''
+* You can now filter any long list of files/saves/ships etc by typing a short word
+* You can now freely move the cursor in a text field and delete characters in any position.
+** 'LEFT' or 'RIGHT' to move the cursor backwards or forwards one character.
+** 'HOME' or 'DOWN' to move the cursor to the beginning of the input.
+** 'END' or 'UP' to move the cursor to the end of the input.
+** 'DEL' now forward deletes text in a text input field.
+'''SMALL CHANGES'''
+* The game mode 'Survival' is now locked until the player completes phase 1 of the stargate
+* The game mode 'Free Roam' is now locked until the player completes the 'Flight Ready' mission in Creative or Survival mode
+* Nb. Both modes can be easily unlocked by editing the preferences.txt file:
+    UnlockSurvival    true
+    UnlockFreeRoam    true
+* Battle Stations button is now available in Tactical mode
+* Changed drone behaviour to look to use any available Drone Bays
+* FTL user interface improved. You can now include other ships after clicking the Prepare Jump button
+* Clicking Prepare Jump from the System Map will now prepare a jump with just that ship, even if another jump is in progress.
+* The OPPOSITION system that sends hostiles to attack the Stargate on a timer has been completely disabled (it sucked)
+* Mining Laser now require to be installed either in a wall (like the guns) or on a piece of scaffold.
+* When installing Mining Lasers they will now auto-rotate to fit the wall/scaffold.
+* Allow to buy/sell entire stack by ctrl clicking.
