  * Tweak to camera shake code to stop long large movement at the beginning of the animation.
  * Keybinding to open/close the Galaxy Map
  * Updated the appearance of the 'charging' bar for supercruise in the external panel and the front view

  * Don't discard old incomplete fragmented letters if they are supposed to be reliable
  * Gave the cockpit compass some love, so try and draw peoples attention to it, as it's really rather handy. It'll now hide when there's no appropriate nav item selected, and will show and pulse when . . . You're out of alignment for a jump, When you change your location

  * Fix problem in resurrect player where we could remove vital modules like the fuel tank from the ship, all the client does now is tell the server which modules it would like to rebuy, and then the server makes all of the decisions about what to put on each slot. For each module slot that we choose not to rebuy, the server will now fill with the item that comes with the free ship of that type
  * Updating planets with improved textures
  * In a warzone, set our pilot name to be the initials of our faction, e.g. C.O.Z for Corporation of Zanax, ignoring numbers in the faction name and always capitalising
