Patch Notes

Development update 2018-01-26

Work has started on version 3.11, and as always a batch of small enhancements and fixes goes first. Here's what's been brewing for the last two weeks.

Resource list in galaxy view



The up/down controls to pick a resource or product to show in the galaxy view wasn't a very good solution, so a proper alphabetical menu will be now displayed instead:



Per-ship filtering in officer listings



All officer listings that allow filters now have an option to display the crew of a single ship:



New planet header images



Max has draw a new full set of images for the headers on the planet window, based on his original artwork for the planet icons:



New docks



After discussions in the forums, we've decided to give this a try:



Docks don't feature the long tube they had originally. In addition they now can only be built outside and will require a clear 3x3 area around them. Unlike the attrition rules used for "inside" objects both of these rules are "soft". Enterprising players can find ways around them. But it's the spirit that counts.

New reveal event for Lactians





Lactians now have the reveal event they were meant to. A team of Lactian priests and servants will visit your station with neutral reputation, and start littering the place with their leaflets about the Church of Lactus. Future visits won't be so peaceful tho.

Research screen final design





The research screen received a much needed cleanup. No more misaligned icons and overlapping everything.
