(This isn't done yet, we're still working on it.)

Fixed an exploit where some ability counts would reset back to the values they started out at, leading to a save/reload exploit.
- Thanks to Azurian and alocritani for reporting.

After completing an instant action (buying or selling something, political deals, whatever), it now just does a smaller popup rather than the full "contract complete" screen. This popup also is just over the normal actions list screen rather than taking you out of it, so you can do multiple political deals or actions repeatedly with ease.
- Thanks to 6xsnake6x and others for suggesting.

Put in an adjustment so that the textbox when you are first selecting your profile name should be selected automatically when you first come into the game, if it was not before. This is in an effort to help compatibility with tablet PCs, although honestly whether or not the game will work with them is a BIG question mark, as it isn't designed for games without a physical mouse and keyboard by nature.
- Thanks to Madmarcus for suggesting.

Additionally, the starting name for your profile now defaults to Hydral, just in case the above does not work.
- Thanks to Azurian for suggesting.

For races that are at war with one another or in an alliance with one another, but both have neutral-range attitudes to one another, previously the war or alliance lines were not showing on the race relations screen. Fixed.
- Thanks to Misery, alocritani, and pepboy for reporting.

(Released April 19th, 2014)

Fixed a bug that could cause an exception when trying to launch a planetcracker at another planet.
- Thanks to Techmech, WhiteSeraph, shrikey, Orelius, MaxAstro, and ussdefiant for reporting.

Fixed a bug where looking at the options to give blackmail to the burlust warlords would give you the leverage immediately.
- Thanks to SNAFU for reporting.

Fixed an exception that could happen when trying to do a random number that has a negative max range.
- Thanks to Feragore for reporting.

Put in an extra bit of code that should make sure that the "Valuable Learning Experience" achievement properly triggers. In some cases apparently it was not doing so before.
- Thanks to Chthon for reporting.

When a planet only has a single armada at it, ground combat is now allowed to still happen. This way planets can't avoid ground combat simply by virtue of being able to crank out a single armada too quickly.
- Thanks to Histidine for inspiring this change.

The game now allows you to select screen resolutions larger than 1920x1080.
- Thanks to Volkira, Azurian, havlentia, Dav, Zero, LintMan, Penumbra, and MattyMuc for suggesting.

Put in an update so that if steamworks fails to initialize for whatever reason on the steam versions of the game, it will not stop the application from loading.
- Thanks to Red_Machine for reporting.
