Happy (pre)-Thanksgiving!
I've just uploaded v0.9.4.2 to the Experimental branch. It features:
* A brand new Galactic Map, which I think is a bit of an improvement over the previous one...
* Improvements to Trade - You can now send more than three types of resources between planets, though you're still limited to a fixed number of total items.
* Fixed a bug where the screen would zoom in and out wildly if you use the mouse wheel to scroll thru a scrollable window.
* Fixed a bug where you could only send exactly 5 colonists on a colonization mission.
* Better error logging for any bugs that happen with regards to save files.
* Some tweaks to the overall look of the UI, but there's plenty more to do there...
Give it a shot and let me know what you think! If everything works correctly this new build will leave the experimental branch and become the main game in about a week. =)
A tiny band of settlers land on a remote planet. With you as their leader they will either build a new civilization, or be consumed by the foul creatures which inhabit the furthest reaches of space.
In Poly Universe worlds are tiny but numerous. Be strategic in laying out your cities to maximize the limited space available on each world. Balance industry and residential buildings to keep your citizens happy. But don't neglect the defenses necessary to keep them safe! Here in the outer edge of the known universe, danger can arrive at any moment, and when it does it arrives in full force.
Establishing trade routes between worlds will allow your planets to specialize and share resources, pushing the boundaries of your civilization even further outwards. But always keep an eye on the health, happiness, and education of your citizens -- with nowhere to receive reinforcements from, your citizens are ultimately your most valuable resource.
