• The artificial intelligence also requires a measure of tuning, and its diplomatic behavior needs perfecting (in progress).

• Some gameplay information in not perfectly clear in some user interface panels or tooltips. This will be perfected, especially based on user feedback.



Known issues:

• In some cases, frequent load/save actions can make the game unstable. It is advised to restart the application when this happens.

• After some time, the game can occupy too much system memory. It is advised to restart the application when this happens.

  Automatons Affinity:
  
  1. At the end of the turn, if there is an overproduction, it's stacked instead of being reported.
  
  2. At the beginning of a turn, an interest is applied to the stacked industry, allowing it to increase a bit.
  
  3. The stacked industry is capped at 5 * system's industry.
  
  4. If the overproduction cannot be stacked, it's conserved for the next turn like the current mechanism.
  
  5. When the automatons build improvements & ships, the industry is used in the following order:
  
  
  a. system's industry
  
  b. overproduction
  
  c. stacked industry
  
  
  6. When a system from the Automatons is invaded, the stacked industry is destroyed, reset to 0 even if the invader is an Automaton.

ALLIANCE & DIPLOMACY [G2Gvote]

  When offering a treaty with someone outside of an alliance, a request is sent to allies. They can now either:
  
  1. Accept the treaty

• Increased the hulls' HP to increase the probability to reach the melee phase: (small:300, medium:600,large:1200 => small:450, medium:1200, large:3000)
• Increased the cost of tonnage and repair modules' industry cost as well as modules related to strategic resources (to reward abundance).
• Reduced the Hissho's Bushido (20% on FIDS => 15% on FID).
• Increased the length of the Bushido but without the reset after an invasion (15 turns WITH reset => 45 turns WITHOUT reset after an invasion).
• Changed the Revenge trait's condition of activation (activated whenever a lost system was re-invaded by the player => will only activate during invasion if the lost system was previously owned at 100%).
• Changed the length of the different Cooperation Agreement steps (0/15/30 => 0/10/15).
