Patch Notes
Update #32 - Path Tracing + Fast Enemy Turn
This week's Star Traders 4X Empires release brings two major updates to the main galactic view as well as to the enemy turn.
We've added path tracing, which shows the path your ships will travel to their destination, as they take into account obstacles (asteroid belts) and red and green sectors for fuel efficiency's sake. The distance you can make in any given turn is shown in blue, the rest in red.
We've also added a new option to enable a Fast Enemy Turn. When turned on, this option will reduce the time it takes for the enemy to show their actions during the turn. Their ships will move very fast, and the animations for their combat attacks are skipped.
We've also made some improvements to the enemy AI and how they plan their actions and their tech point spend, so watch out. You will find them to be a little sharper.
