+## [2026.10.12] — 2026-10-10
+
+The voyage release. **Travelling from the map is a real trip now:** when your ship is parked on the ground and you pick
+another world on the map, the ship **takes off, warps to another star system if it has to, and lands** on the world
+you chose. Before, the screen just cut to the new place (#1614). **Water got quicker and calmer at the same time:** it
+runs about twice as fast, a pond you add water to grows to its new size, and the flood near the first landing spot of
+every world that never came to rest is gone (#2447 #2448 #2449). Ahmed (ahmdkaml) built the server side of the trip and
+the map's lock earlier and is co-author of this part.
+
+ℹ️ **Compatibility:** the network protocol stays at **version 11**, the save version at **3** and the terrain generation
+at **23**: your saves and worlds carry over unchanged. Water that already flooded an area in an existing world stays
+where it is (the game cannot tell it apart from water you placed), but it comes to rest now. The full take-off, warp
+and landing needs the game and the server on 2026.10.12, so update both. The desktop game updates itself on start, and
+the browser version is always current.
+
+### 🚀 Travelling from a parked ship (#1614)
+
+- **Pick a world on the map while your ship is parked on the ground** and travel there: the ship **takes off**, the
+  **hyperspace warp** carries you across if the world lies in another star system, and the ship **lands** on the world
+  you picked, just like a landing you fly yourself.
+- **You don't steer during the trip.** The controls come back once you stand on the new world.
+- **"Hyperjump to this system" from a parked ship** takes off first now, then warps and leaves you **in flight** in the
+  new system. Before, it could hang in the take-off and never jump.
+- A jump you start while you are already flying (system chart, Hyperspace tab) still warps straight away, as before.
+- If the trip cannot finish, for example because the landing is refused, you get the controls back in flight instead
+  of being stuck.
+
+### 💧 Water that flows and settles (#2447 #2448 #2449)
+
+- **Water runs about twice as fast:** placed water spreads about seven blocks in a second and settles shortly after the
+  last block you place. **Lava keeps its slow pace** of one block every half second, so a breached crater still gives
+  you time to step back.
+- **Adding water to a pond makes it grow.** Before, water placed into a pond that had already come to rest left the
+  pond as it was.
+- **The endless flood near the start is fixed.** Every world wraps around, and the line where it joins up lies close to
+  where you first land. Water poured near that line never came to rest and kept spreading. It settles now like
+  everywhere else.
+
+### 🎯 Target lock (#2450)
+
+- **A lock on a ship that seems impossibly far away is released** instead of pointing at nowhere, and the game writes a
+  short note about it into its log. If you send an F1 report after that happens, the note tells us which ship caused
+  it, so we can find out why a ship ends up there at all. The crash this used to cause was already fixed in 2026.10.11.
+
+### 🌍 Texts
+
+- Korean: the map button **"Hyperjump to this system"** read "move the focus to this system". It now says hyperjump.
+
+### 🛠️ For tinkerers
+
+- The ten parallel test jobs on every pull request get an even share of the work again, so the slowest one no longer
+  runs into the time limit.
+
+### 🙏 Thank you
+
+- **Ahmed (ahmdkaml)** built the server half of the trip from the map and the map's lock for unvisited worlds in other
+  systems. The take-off, warp and landing in this release build on that, and his credit line now names it, in the game
+  (all 14 languages) and in the README.
+- **dr-Tikool** sent the crash report that showed the far-away lock still needed a safety net.

 server (15 Hz ticks): away from the seam a spread was always right, just slow (~1.9 s after the last click);

Hier ist er! 🚀\n\n🚀 Wählt auf der Karte eine Welt, während euer Schiff auf dem Boden parkt, und reist hin: Das Schiff **hebt ab**, liegt das Ziel in einem anderen Sternsystem, trägt euch der **Hyperraum-Warp** hinüber, und dann **landet** das Schiff auf genau der Welt, die ihr ausgesucht habt – so wie bei einer Landung, die ihr selbst fliegt. Lenken müsst ihr unterwegs nicht, die Steuerung bekommt ihr zurück, sobald ihr auf der neuen Welt steht. Auch **„Hierher springen (Hyperraum)“** startet vom Boden aus jetzt erst und lässt euch dann im neuen System frei fliegen – vorher blieb das Schiff dabei manchmal im Start hängen. Den Anfang dieser Reise hat **Ahmed (ahmdkaml)** aus der Community gebaut, und das steht jetzt auch in seiner Zeile in den Credits. Danke, Ahmed! 💛\n\n💧 Und das **Wasser** ist schneller und ruhiger geworden. Platziertes Wasser fließt jetzt etwa **doppelt so schnell** – rund sieben Blöcke in einer Sekunde – und kommt kurz nach dem letzten Block zur Ruhe. **Lava** bleibt langsam, damit ihr bei einem aufgebrochenen Krater weiter Zeit zum Zurückweichen habt. Gießt ihr Wasser in einen Teich, der schon still steht, **wächst der Teich** jetzt auf seine neue Größe. Und ein fieser Fehler ist weg: Jede Welt ist rundherum verbunden, und die Stelle, an der sie zusammenstößt, liegt ganz nah an eurem ersten Landeplatz. Wasser, das dort hingegossen wurde, kam **nie zur Ruhe** und lief immer weiter. Jetzt beruhigt es sich dort wie überall sonst. 🌊\n\n🎯 Noch eine Kleinigkeit: Zeigt euer **Zielmarker** auf ein Schiff, das unmöglich weit weg zu sein scheint, löst das Spiel die Zielerfassung jetzt und schreibt einen kurzen Hinweis ins Protokoll. Schickt ihr danach einen F1-Bericht, verrät uns der Hinweis, welches Schiff dahintersteckt. Danke an **dr-Tikool** für den Absturzbericht, der uns darauf gebracht hat!\n\nEure Spielstände und Welten bleiben, wie sie sind. Wasser, das sich in einer bestehenden Welt schon ausgebreitet hat, bleibt liegen, kommt aber jetzt zur Ruhe. Für die ganze Reise mit Start, Warp und Landung sollten Spiel und Server beide auf 2026.10.12 sein. Der Desktop aktualisiert sich beim Start von selbst, der Browser ist immer aktuell. Gute Reise! 🚀",
