Greetings Lords of Rigel! This week has some minor bug fixes and two requested quality of life adjustments.
Measurement Tool
First is a measurement tool for the galaxy menu. By pressing F9 by default, this toggles on or off a measurement tool to determine distances between stars in parsecs.

If you are having issues with the measurement tool, check the common issues thread and how to reset keybindings. Some players returning to LoR may have issues with older keybinding .inis and save files.
Planets Menu Improvements
Second is a requested pan to system in planets menu button, to go with the event ticker and empire menu pan options. If you're in system view this will load that location in the galaxy.

What to Expect Next
As we enter into the holiday sales season expect more minor optimizations, QOL improvements, and some content updates over the holidays,
The council decree system mentioned as a content update will be coming later in the Winter. Council decrees adding economic bonuses and sanctions based on the rankings of species in the mid and late games while reducing the doomsday clock.
