I've had a few people offering to help me test it, which is absolutely fantastic. I know I'll be getting in contact with someone who can help on that front as soon as it's ready.
As a general status update, the saving-loading state portion has been almost completed. Ships are saved, and loaded correctly on disconnects and reconnects (thus making it so the system remembers that you were docked, and doesn't spit you out beneath the center point of the map)
The only issue that's remaining, is that files aren't being deleted from the filesystem when they should be. After I emerge from this fist-fight hopefully victorious, after a few small other adjustments, we'll be good to go for testing.
