Hangar Patch 9 Greetings Citizens, We’re pleased to announce that Hangar Patch 9 is now available! The big news with today’s patch is that the Hangar now features client-side persistence. That means that the changes you make to your hangar are now permanent: you can change your ship loadouts in the holotable, log off and come back without having them reset!
The bulk of today’s changes are “under the hood.” Patch 9 includes a number of bug fixes, but more importantly it sets the stage to incorporate future hangar changes and other Star Citizen modules currently in development. We know it’s not as exciting as a new ship, but it’s essential for what we have in the works. Another public-facing Hangar patch is coming before the end of the year, and it promises to include more for Citizens to play with.
There are still a few surprises to be found in your hangars today. We’ve added a trophy case to every hangar, which displays several possible things. If you have a Gold Ticket on your account, it will now show up there, as will the RSI Zeus model and the 2943 Gamescom trophy. Your fish tanks have also been given a big makeover!
If you’re interested in helping us test the latest changes, try changing our ship loadouts and then logging back on to see if they’re correct. If you run into any issues, please report them to the Hangar Bug Report forum for our QA team to investigate. Note that the changes are currently local, so you can’t carry them over from one computer to another. Server-side persistence, a must for the finished game, is in development now.
