Patch 1.2.1.0

Patch Notes

This patch makes the asset list independent from the empire manager, fixing in the process many issues with the respective menus. It also fixes many small to medium problems (same ship appearing twice, steam overlay support, inconsistent lasso selection...).

Changelog

Changes

  • Asset List has been moved outside of the Empire Manager
  • Empire Manager menu does pause the game now (and is screen centered)
  • Added button to access asset list in bottom menu
  • F1-F4 shortcuts keys reorganized to be in same order as bottom menu buttons
  • Slightly bigger font used in main UI

Balance

  • Carrier owned fighters will self destruct or exit the galaxy if the carrier gets killed (fixes various exploits and problems)

Performances

  • Asset List no longer massively reduce FPS (still does a bit)
