    - Replace the plain HUD button with an animated mission monitor showing distance and estimated system-exit time.
    - Show estimated remaining and total travel time in telemetry.
    - Preserve and display the eight most recent deterministic mission signals.
    - Export estimated interstellar arrival times to public dashboard integrations.
  Fixes:
    - Make slower mission profiles reach interstellar space according to distance instead of sharing the balanced profile's fixed clock.

Version: 0.4.0
Date: 2026-08-22
  Features:
    - Show the exact permanent bonuses and penalties of every mission profile before launch and in telemetry.
  Changes:
    - Explicitly state that each force receives one Voyager probe and cannot change its profile after launch.
