The newest build includes the ship configuration screen. You can access this screen by going to the engineer's menu and selecting configuration. There you can see how the ship is broken down into each components. Each components are, of course, upgradable. Also fixed a starmap bug.

Fixed the starmap so that it can be call up by the menu instead of the keyboard. Also the ship configuration screen is coming along pretty well. You can call up the ship configuration screen by pressing 'e' on your keyboard. Lastly this build has the game assets separated into directories.

I've finally decided to put the project online as I feel that there is now something to show. But most importantly something for the community to do instead of just looking at screenshots. Here's what are completed and needs testing in this build:
stellar / solar / planetary navigations are all in place
fully realized starmap, the one that comes with this build has 1000 stars and over 4000 planets. Its in that giant 1.5 meg textfile :D. So it should take everyone some time to go to every single planet. According to my starmap generator, there should about about 50 habitable planets. I know where they are, can YOU find them? hehehehe
star chart
cargo list
landing / launching on a planet
planet scanning
