Looks like a really good update this time. Few things the community has been wanting (Batteries, solar cells more powerful and cheaper, and of course bug fixes.) The server has now been updated to this update, and is ready for use.

They are also working on player communication, so we can probably expect it to tie into the new antenna system. To get a better understanding of the antenna system you might want to watch the video.
Patch Notes:

Features
- battery block for small and large grids
- solar panels are now little cheaper and much more efficient
- communications relay (signal can travel through multiple antennas; you can receive a signal from any distance, broadcasting can be limited by player or by power of the antenna)
- small ship antenna has now max. range of 5000 m
- copy-paste into existing ships
- new world setting: enable/disable client-side saving
- new world setting: permanent death can be turned off (client still owns his stuff after respawning in the rescue ship)
- pressing 'K' can be now used for looting character
- added antenna to prefab ships
