What can you tell us about the new star map?

TL;DRThe new star map is a restyled, clearer and easier-to-use quality-of-life upgrade that adds estimated travel time and basic search, with search to be expanded later.

So, big, big quality-of-life improvement from where we're at right now. And again, we're changing it because the current star map is difficult to use. It's not clear, you don't get enough feedback, some things are broken. But we've spent a lot of time on styling it, making it very clear, making it very easy to use, done a lot of testing ourselves of just playing around with it. We've added some new features to it too. So essentially an estimated travel time if you set a route somewhere. Search functionality, which is all fairly basic to start with. We'll obviously come back more on that later down the line. But essentially, if I want to go to Hurston, I type in Hurston, it takes me to Hurston on the map, and I click set route, and then I go. Yeah, it's been a long time coming, and we're obviously very, very excited about it.
