Items will switch themselves off below a customizable threshold to avoid damage
Player can toggle thermal override to disable safety shutdown
Selecting an item allows player to select whether the item will override
Clicking on the background of an inventory panel will display general ship settings (including thermal shutdown threshold)

Refactored per-instance entity code to run inside monobehavior on entity instances
Created state machine AI for enemy ships with basic patrol and combat routines
Removed legacy AI code (controller item behaviors)
Added automatic trigger group assignment for matched weapons
Created ship collision system
Created shield VFX and colliders
Modified weapon scripts to eliminate specialized projectile behavior - allows charged weapons to have projectiles and modify weapon stats when charged
Added machine gun weapon & VFX
Moved third party code to Plugins folder to improve compile times
Minimap works again
Stardust density is now proportional to gravity depth
Generated zones are double the size and better distributed
Orbital hierarchy actually working now (!)
Station start position actually orbits something now
Max gravity strength remapped to infinity (zone boundary is properly impassable now)
Added MPL license headers
SectorRenderer renders entities in sector, manages particle systems for ship thrusters
Thrusters apply torque based on orientation and position relative to ship center of mass
GameManager controls the player ship's thrusters
Player can dock with station if they are near
Created menu screen
Created inventory tab with 2 cargo panes and properties panel
Updated the style of every UI prefab

List elements now have foldouts
Lists are presented in the Database Inspector with colors when the list type implements ITintInspector interface
Removed universal GameContext references
Refactored GameContext: It's now only responsible for item management. As such it's now called ItemManager
GlobalData is gone, relevant settings are distributed amongst specialized settings classes
Entities are no longer database entries, references to them are now direct - Zone is reponsible for storing them in ZonePacks
Controller subtypes are now generic classes, class argument is task type
Inventory is now a 2D grid instead of a list
Entity temperature is now a 2D grid instead of a number
Item sizes are now arbitrary shapes instead of a number
Hardpoints are now arbitrary shapes instead
Equipped items have their own temperatures
Map view now displays sunlight colors
Integrated Allegorithmic Substance Plugin
Imported Djinni ship and assigned Substance materials
Removed Node Editor framework (might come back later but needs work to integrate with behavior system)
Asteroid belts are now processed without GC allocations
Fog Raymarching shader now discards samples far from fog surface
Gravity depth calculation avoids some expensive operations
New asteroid models
Asteroid belts have a custom width curve = tighter belts
Zone Generator uses color theory now
Zone gravity well is much deeper, filled with ambient glow
Gravity waves flow over time
Fog follows gravity waves
Gas Giant shader fixed, offsets distort albedo properly
Fog sample distances follow exponential curve
Fog noise offsets sampling position instead of subtracting density = more natural looking noise
Fog brightness fades out at max view distance
Added the ability to generate zones locally in order to facilitate rapidly iterating generation parameters. Then of course I tweaked the shit out of the zone generation!
Made the master server connect to the database and now it's listening for and responding correctly to GalaxyRequestMessages and ZoneRequestMessages, generating the zone contents if they do not yet exist.
Polished UI for the title screen
Added login, registration and session management to CultClient
Connected title screen to CultClient login and registration
