 # OpenStarbound
 
-Open-source Starbound fork
+This is a fork of Starbound.
+You **must** own a copy of Starbound to use it. Base game assets are not provided for obvious reasons.
+
+It is **work-in-progress**, so compiled builds are not yet available. GitHub Actions will likely be set up to provide compiled builds in the future.
+
+If you do decide to compile it anyways, you must also make sure it loads the game assets in `/assets/opensb/`.
+
+Changes:
+* You can now make .patch files that are just merged in. That's why the patch files in here are unusually simple.
+* Some Lua functions like getters and setters for player identity values, but not every function from [StarExtensions](https://github.com/StarExtensions/StarExtensions) has been ported yet.
+* Custom user input support with a keybindings menu (rewrite from StarExtensions)
+* Positional Voice Chat that works on completely vanilla servers, uses Opus for crisp, HD audio (rewrite from StarExtensions)
+  * Both menus are made available in the options menu in this fork rather than as a chat command.
+* Multiple font support (switch fonts inline with `^font=name;`, .ttf assets are auto-detected)
+* Per-thread world lightmap generation moved off the main thread
+* Experimental changes to the storage of directives in memory to greatly reduce their impact on frametimes
+  * Works well when extremely long directives are used for "vanilla multiplayer-compatible" creations, like [generated clothing](https://silverfeelin.github.io/Starbound-NgOutfitGenerator/).
+
+* Client-side tile placement prediction (rewrite from StarExtensions)
+  * You can also resize the placement area of tiles on the fly.
+* Support for placing foreground tiles with a custom collision type (rewrite from StarExtensions, requires OpenSB server)
+  * Additionally, objects can be placed under non-solid foreground tiles.
+
+* Some minor polish to UI
