Patch Notes v0.4 – Fair Shipyard
This update closes a few remaining gaps in the economy and prepares the ground for the bigger content expansion coming next.
Balancing
- Graviton Technology is no longer free. It now costs 250,000 Silicates and 125,000 Helium-3 (cost factor 2.0). Research with zero cost can no longer be started.
- Terraformer costs now rise faster per level (factor 2.0 instead of 1.1), in line with how valuable extra fields are.
These changes keep progression fair: free or near-free upgrades let a few empires grow far beyond everyone else, which throws the rankings out of balance.
Shipyard
- Building ships and defences is now fully reliable. Double clicks, several open tabs or simultaneous completions can no longer book an order twice or only halfway.
Coming next
- New buildings, research, ships and defences are on the way. Each universe can now enable new content separately, so new content will first be tested in the Test Universe before it reaches Universe 1.
Thanks for playing and for your feedback!
