1. Optimized the fleet escort feature:
(1) The escort command can now be used on Community fleets and expedition squad fleets with cordial relations.

New features and adjustments for some star systems:

During exploration, Explorers may discover valuable Sacrum Chu Imperium strategic assets, blueprints, or equipment assets.
