1.2.0 'META' [28.12.2023]
Backend simulated combat improvements, and animated combat fixes.
Added
- Add: Solace ship builder -> Evasion stat into stats UI.
- Add: Combat system -> Use Solace turrets to deal damage in the backend.
- Add: Combat -> Min and max turret ranges.
- Add: Combat -> Rate of fire per turret.
- Add: Solace ship builder -> Rate of fire to turret stats.
- Add: Pause menu -> Open credits button.
Improved
- Improve: Ship Builder -> Turrets -> Should have stats on screen, instead of tooltip [for clarity].
Balanced
- Balance: Colonist -> Reduced from 75 to 45 power cost on standard speed.
Fixed
- Fix: Ship builder -> Background has tiling artifacts on ultrawide displays.
- Fix: Solace ship builder -> When fleet types are unlocked, filter type UI does not update after opening the ship builder.
- Fix: Pause menu -> 'New stars satellites' logo sometimes appeared duplicated.
- Fix: Credits -> Credits username appears in broken font.
- Fix: Solace ship builder -> Panels remain open when opened.
- Fix: Starbase panel -> Upgrade button tooltip showed technological advance required when can upgrade starbase.
- Fix: Pause menu -> Game settings info is not fully visible on ultrawide aspect ratio.
How Turret Ranges Currently Work
- When combat is being observed, accurate turret ranges are used from the animated ship position, otherwise if a star system is not open, turret range is based on the center of the fleet.
- This is because ship positions are not known by the server, only the client, as simulating positions on the server would be more difficult and require more CPU calls.

New Stars is a 4X strategy game, on a galactic scale. Explore new worlds, build mega-structures, and found prosperous interstellar colonies. Go head-to-head with alien empires and build the greatest empire to survive the test of time, or be the last remaining in the galaxy to succeed.
Customize your empire from world preferences, eight different ideologies with their own bonuses, hundreds of empire icons and more. Customize a unique galaxy based on your preferences. There are five different galaxy sizes to choose from.
Unique empires, species, and clans exist within a customizable and procedurally generated galaxy with limitless possibilities, and thousands of unique planets, stars and worlds. Some planets have valuable resources that can be collected.
Explore star systems and discover new secrets of the galaxy, and find clues to your lost home. Discoveries such as white dwarfs, ancient ruins, lost ships, and much more can be found within the abyss. Some planets have hidden features that increase their value.
Expand your empire across new stars to new frontiers, and build strong colonies that will power your galactic economy. Collect natural resources from planets and stars using starhubs. Beware of pesky space pirates that may plunder your resources for their own gain.
Merge ships into one fleet, and combine them against your adversaries. Defend against attacks by upgrading starbases, or fortifying your colonies. Research new ship types or advanced military capabilities to get an edge over your alien foes.
Declare wars, trade resources, make agreements, declare friendships, share intel, forge galactic unions, and much more. Some empires may be openly hostile or require appeasing, others may be cooperative, and some may be integrated into your empire.
Construct military starship presets with unique turrets. Unlock larger ships and more powerful turrets to allow your empire to get an edge in interstellar warfare.
There is much to do in New Stars and you choose how to play.
New Stars is in development, so there is more yet to come...
