| | colspan="3" | '''Summary''' <br> This early dev stream focused on the technical foundations of the reactor systems and the cold start tutorial. Dan worked on the cabling logic, voltage distribution, and cryogenics/coolant flow required to bring the ship online from a "cold and dark" state. The stream also included a deep dive into the development roadmap, detailing plans for procedural alien life, realistic ship construction blocks, and future DLC single-player campaigns.

| Starship Simulator - Random Wednesday! - More Radial Menu & NPC Task Stuff

| | colspan="3" | '''Summary''' <br> Dan refined the radial menu to be more context-aware, reducing unnecessary clicks by making options relevant to the object currently being viewed. A major addition was the "Command Target" system for the hollow display, allowing the captain to designate objects of interest that the sensors and helm can then automatically target. The stream also covered technical fixes for NPC summoning and staggered event sequencing to ensure autopilot and FTL engage smoothly.

| Starship Simulator - Random Friday! - Making shipwide orders more persistent

| | colspan="3" | '''Summary''' <br> This session focused on integrating the radial menu orders into the global Task Manager system. Dan worked on making NPC orders persistent, ensuring that if a player manually interrupts a console, the NPC will attempt to recover and complete their assigned task. Key updates included implementing the "Belay" (hold/pause) command, setting up departmental task boards for the bridge, and a long discussion regarding sci-fi influences (Star Trek vs. Babylon 5) and the future transition to Metahuman characters.

| | colspan="3" | '''Summary''' <br> In this stream, Dan focused on creating a robust "State Engine" for NPC tasks. This involves a flowchart-style logic system that allows NPCs to track their current orders (such as navigating to a star system) and resume them even if a player interferes with their console. He simplified the data structures for shipwide orders, moving away from nested structs to more efficient vectors and floats. The session also covered updating the bridge UI to reflect task states (Pending vs. Assigned) and fixing coordinate/radius issues for the autopilot.
