Game patch data
A readable breakdown of what changed between 4.8.3 and 4.9.
Generated from StarBreaker foundry records, MrKraken StarStrings, and CIG LIVE patch notes. Comparing 4.8.3 to 4.9. Generated 2026-07-17T10:22:45+00:00.
Release validation: public records must have both a new record path and a new public title relative to 4.8.3; missions receive the same baseline-title check; curated gameplay changes must be explicitly documented in the official LIVE patch notes.
