Item Manufacturers now defined in item data
Items are generated at specific quality tiers with associated colors, displayed in title of properties panel when selected
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)
Performance Stat evaluation has been moved to EquippedItem, slight performance improvement
Item online and active status are now reactive properties
Created player settings file to store e.g. shutdown threshold
Fixed crash when entering wormhole while enemies are visible
Shield behavior now provides protection from damage at the expense of heat and energy usage
Weapon scripts check for the presence of a shield when detecting collisions (TODO: TEST ALL WEAPON TYPES)
Shields can be toggled on/off (G key)
Database cache now included in repo (saves some confusion)
Converted entity materials to new fade shader
Implemented visibility system
Refactored per-instance entity code to run inside monobehavior on entity instances

Created ship collision system
Created shield VFX and colliders
New damage system, much easier to understand
Splash damage support
Hardpoint armor consolidated with hull armor
Minimap shows view cone
New industry standard palette for temperature display
Temperature range display contains palette
Restoring loadouts now ignores temperature and armor
Items can ignore thermal mass when adding heat
Burst weapons can consume single ammo (mainly shotguns)
New missile type that follows crosshairs
New airburst projectile type that deals splash damage
Auto Shotgun and Charged Shotgun

Added script for constant weapons, which can start and stop firing at any time (unless they're reloading)
Created Constant Laser

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 (!)

Max gravity strength remapped to infinity (zone boundary is properly impassable now)
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
