This is a micropatch, mostly bugfixes / minor tweaks and also update the client to include some supports needed for test server.
* Tweakings to the bosskill score system.
* Autopilot no longer requires Astral Travel.
* New Contact Agent button for station mission list.
* Missions now autocomplete when you dock at the ending station.
* Text in the trade bay is now colored based on price and tech levels (dark green for can’t afford, red for insufficient tech level).
* Crash fixes.
* Fixed the bug where we had an extra tab in several different tab control UI elements.

As most people know, I am Jey123456, the french Canadian who like to hide in the snow and read memory dumps from both client and server crashes.
I mostly handle behind the scene work, fixing crashes, improving performances and fixing other programmers stuff when needed. I also make sure the code remain maintainable and as properly structured as can be. Ensure the server hardware stay secure, running as smoothly as possible and that we have proper backups running as well as contingency plans if everything were to explode tomorrow.
The closest thing to something player can see that i have been directly doing is applying patches and sometimes helping on bug tickets.
