    (really enjoyed the way you guys reworked the start- very fun/challenging)

    Build: v1.10 4227
    Mode: Survival, SP
    Seed-id: any
    Repo: always
    Severity: minor
    Type: PDA/Dialogs
    Description: Some suggested rewrites of the English translation of dialogs and pda text in the Ashon start. Minor tweaks to avoid repetition, issues with articles, and some minor spelling glitches.

    "As long as our food stocks last, we can sell you from our supplies. Talk to our merchants. There should be some ice in one of the containers around the lower level. Our tanks are full and we can currently spare it.
    Regarding fuel. There are some refueling stations at the edge of the sector. There should still be something to get there. With a detector you should be able to find them, but you should expect hostile forces there."

    "[...] It could be dangerous, though, because there are for sure some combat ships of the warlord hanging around there. You should only go there if you are properly equipped."

    "I'm not sure what these N'ty even are. The name is also just a derivation from an engraving we identified on their armor. We know nothing about them even after decades of research. Possibly a left-behind helper population of an extinct species? They are, without a doubt, machine beings. Incredibly resilient, but slow. I've been studying the towers they seem to be guarding. [...]"

    "It's great that you continue to support us! It shall not be your loss! In order for the fleet to refuel when it arrives, we must recapture at least one of the three supply stations in this part of the sector. If you can do that, it will be easier for our troops later on.
    Your mission: Fly to the marked station and take out all the defenders. Find and destroy the core and place your own core. Expect a counterattack afterwards! Good luck!"
