Beta Hotfix 0.8.1.1

Date: 2026-05-29 20:09:01

Hello everyone,

A quick hotfix to calm ECHO down, she was trying to fill up crew even though it was at capacity already.

Added/Changed

- ECHO will only get new crewmembers when the total dips below 50%. We'll introduce an option to adjust this in the near future

- Panicked units in a boarding operation will try to flee if possible. Player units go back to the staging area

- Ships with level above 80 will flee the area when the boarding operation is going bad for them. This is a temporary measure untill we get rid of the final level cap. (yeah we cannot wait either :)

- Some text readibilty improvements

Fixes

- Loop where ECHO gets stuck buying new crew members fixed

- Fix for ECHO trying to travel from a position in space that no longer has a POI resulting in it not being able to travel and spawning the notification "We are already here".

Cheers,

Bat Roost Games

Enable the beta version

Make sure to keep an old save game when switching to the beta, just in case. We always make sure that your save games will keep working, but as long as the beta is ahead of the release, the beta save game won't work on the release version until it catches up.

To take part go to Manage and select Properties for Vanguard Galaxy in Steam:
