• We now test against, and package with, Python 3.9.5.

  As a consequence of this we no longer support Windows 7.
  This is due to Python 3.9.x itself not supporting Windows 7.
  The application (both EDMarketConnector.exe and EDMC.exe) will crash on startup due to a missing DLL.

  This should have no other impact on users or plugin developers, other than the latter now being free to use features that were introduced since the Python 3.7 series.

  Developers can check the contents of the .python-version file in the source (it's not distributed with the Windows installer) for the currently used version in a given branch.

Release 5.0.4

This is a minor bugfix release, ensuring that Odyssey Suit names (and loadout) will actually display if you're in your ship on login and never leave it.

NB: This still requires a Frontier CAPI data pull, either automatically because you're docked if you have that option set, or by pressing the 'Update' button. We can't display data when we don't have it from either CAPI or Journal sources. You'll also see '<Unknown>' between the time we see the Journal LoadGame event during login and when there's either a Journal suit-related event, or a CAPI data pull completes.
