AI Voice Prompt
Added AI fleet command voice prompts in-game, which will be triggered when Capsuleers send or receive some fleet commands. 
AI Voice Warnings have been added, which will be triggered when the Capsuleer encounters special occasions such as the following: Attacks, disruptions, severe damage on Shields or Armor; full capacity of mining ship ore hold, ore belt exhaustion; enemy respawn in Cosmic Anomaly, etc.

Drone Obit Range
Capsuleers can manually set Drone Obit Range.
How to Set: Tap on your ships in space, press and hold Set "Orbit" for Drones in the pop-up wheel and drag to adjust to the target value.
Setting Range: 1 - 100km, 1km by default.
