Updates and version history

Checked 2026-11-05 · Lightyear Frontier 1.0

Early access opened on 19 March 2024. Version 1.0 shipped on 4 November 2026. Between those dates the systems people still search for arrived in named updates. I keep each one on its own page so a historical recipe is not mistaken for today's craft.

Shifting Gears and Greater Cause each have a single official post in my source set. I still give them pages because the names are searched, and the page says the source count out loud. Patch notes after 1.0, the legacy branch, trailers, and the old beta branch have their own URLs.
