Patch #20: The Space Defense Force Update

Greetings Commander,

The latest update has been released: **Release v1.4.1d - Space Defense Force **

This update adds the new Starfoil hull class, a series of ships designed by the SDF that have fallen outside their control. The first variant, the Type-99X, is a stun focused vessel staffed exclusively by SDF units. The ship also possesses the new Drone unit, a small support automaton seen aboard SDF vessels, and the Photon Lance, a power lance variant.

The update also adds five new events, including one quest, and revises rewards for several existing SDF events. Additionally, changes to galaxy map generation increase the likelihood of encountering a wider variety of sectors throughout a run.
