Prospector 0.1.8b Released

[magellan]

I just released Prospector 0.1.8b
For those who don't know its a space exploration roguelike. Your goal
is to try and get rich by exploring an unknown sector of the galaxy.
Playing it looks something like this: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Rq88_KRfrow

0.1.8b is mainly a bugfix, but also some new stuff, to make your
exploring a little bit more interesting. Your crew now can gain
skills, and the nameless redshirts are not nameless anymore, and show
a certain degree of self preservation.

If you want to give it a shot you can get it here

Here the details of what changed:
* Savegames are not compatible with 0.1.8a!
* added some saveguards so that you don't stay sick if you aren't
* finally got visibility+lighting right
* rewrote FOV, adding an option to mark actually visible squares
* Crew talents
* Stations now pay less for goods
* Fixed some map generation bugs
* Tries to save the game if encountering an error
* fixed (yet another) door bug
* Added teammember overview
* fixed the black market
* fixed a bug with shop rerolling
* fixed an autoequip bug
* fixed some bugs with catching life monsters

Enjoy!
