VoidExpanse - Patch notes v2.1.x

[Lurler]

VoidExpanse v2.1 is here!

=== VoidExpanse v2.1.0 ===

New features & changes:
   * New game option - static camera (the camera won't follow the mouse cursor, as you guys asked us to add!)
   * Reduced "Big party!" achievement requirement changed to 4 players online (was 10)
   * Better algorithm for selecting the default video settings
   * Better detection of HiDPI/Retina screens and automatic selection of the according option to improve rendering on such screens
   * Modding: can create devices to interact with space objects (such as debris)
   * Modding: added multiple new scripting API methods

Fixed:
   * Fixed (Pariahs' Bane expansion) Pariahs ship was appearing in the store on stations of other fractions
   * Fixed local game server connection dropping issue (on a low spec PCs)
   * Fixed scripting API npc.GetSystemAsteroidsByDistanceToNPC() not working properly
   * Fixed scripting API generator.RemoveAsteroid() not working properly
   * Fixed crashes due to OGG loading
   * Fixed Render texture creation issue
   * Fixed chat in 4K scaled incorrectly
   * Improved savegame writing reliability (should help with random corruption issues)
   * Fixed typos in Russian translation (thanks to ╨æ╨╡╨╗╨╛╤ü╨╗╨░╨▓)

Extra notes:
   * Saves ARE compatible with the previous versions!
   * Important! It is necessary to update BOTH clients for users and servers for server hosters.
