It is important to take note that a lot of those changes have already been on the server since the universe reset. Due to how hectic that reset had been on the content side of thing, it was pretty messy to build a list of what was in and what was not. This patch was made to rectify this and properly apply all changes that should have been there on reset and more importantly cleanup the server state to allow for faster future patches.

- Content Changes -

- Server Changes -
* Fixed some cases of rubberbanding when max speed was changed and made the speed cheat detection more flexible
* AI’s and combat bots that have less than 10% energy will now only use whatever weapon has the best DPE against their target instead of the weapon with the best DPE of those that can currently hit. If the best DPE weapon can’t currently hit when it’s time to fire again, he will wait until either it can hit, or energy goes back above 10%
* Industrial Commodities will always drop from player and bot ships when they enter stasis
* Implemented “LOCKED” mission mechanic
* Fixed the bug where firing aura in DG boss level can give infinite RoF to said boss
* Cleaned up the /mc dialog a little bit
* Fixed a bug where all the newer suns were doing absurd amounts of damage. Sun damage now 1/10 what it was, but the effective maximum shields for calculating damage has been increased from 10k to 50k. This means it will be roughly half what it was for shields 50k and above, and much less the farther the shield gets below 50k.
* Can now sell any non-commodity item to AI bases. Prices for built items reduced by drastically reducing the value from common commodities. “Scrap” value from AI bases reduced on expensive things with a 1 bil cap. Station Extension Y’s can be sold again, but only for 20k instead of 100k.
* Added the ability for field generators to optionally work only out of combat.
* Changed “Stay Close” slave order to “V Formation”. Bots will fly in V formation with you. If they are set to fight, they will fight from your side, shooting whatever they can shoot, unless you have “attack my target”, in which case they will still stay there but always try to attack your target above all else. Bots who are correctly in their place in the V formation gain the ability to slowly increase their speed to double maximum, so once you assemble your formation, you can go faster and they will keep up.
* Changed the guard behavior of bots who get a right-click order to guard empty space. They will now sit in that spot and not move as long as they have that order, shooting stuff in place if they are set to fight.
* Fixed a bug in weapon descriptions which incorrectly listed parasite damage as being half what really it is over half the time that it really is.
* AI and bots will now take into consideration parasite damage when choosing which weapon to use
* Fixed the bug with vacuum scoops not vacuuming aug debris
* Fixed the bug with tractor beams not tractoring aug debris when nothing selected
* Trade slaves in V Formation will follow behind master in a line
* Ships in V Formation when their master docks will now circle the base, combat slaves in an outer circle, trade slaves in an inner circle
* V formation AI will now always face and shoot their target if their target is within weapons range and they are within “close distance” (500) of their master rather than trying so hard to stay exactly in formation
* “Attack My Target” combat bots will now not attack things that the master hits with incidental cc damage if master has a different enemy already targeted.
* Const DPS bonuses from either the newish aug stat or the Weaponry skill, will now make healing better by that amount rather than being ignored for healing
* Userbases and drones will now take into account the transference resistances of themselves and their target (if their target is a drone) when making decisions about healing. This fixes two bugs, 1) drones/bases will no longer heal drones/bases with 100% trans resist, and 2) there was a situation where a drone/base with very high trans resist would not heal stuff when it should have because it thought the healing would cost way more shields than it really will.
* Fixed a bug preventing drones from firing missiles
* Gunner slaves will now MF properly
* Added confirmation for abandoning a base.
* Fixed a bug where super items with multifire tag would mistakenly label non-weapon items as happening multiple times
* Made AI using super items where a weapon is the first item actually check if they will hit with it in order to use it, rather than just checking range

Existing terraforming blueprints are getting an update. The exact list of blueprints will be available below this blog post with almost all terraforming blueprints no longer building into their respective planetary project. Instead, they will build into a new “Pre-Fabricated” blueprint that can then be added to any planet or moon’s base to be built into the respective planetary project without the use of materials or credits. The existing cost of projects will remain on the original blueprints, allowing players to bulk build terraforming projects at a single centralized production base to remove the hassle of managing resources such as metals on all of your planet’s bases.

Once you’ve built the pre-fabricated project blueprints, you can add one to a planet or base by equipping and beginning the build. The blueprint will require no resources or credits to function, only time. The first project in a chain will take one day to build, while the second in a chain takes two days and third takes three days. Building all the way to the last project will, as a result, take seven days total.

- Content Changes -
* Dark Fighter Defender nolonger drops from DG Dark Transports
+ Added a 1% drop chance of Gargantuan Goblets to DG Green Battleships
* Paxian Rescue Order (broken daily in Subspace) has been removed.
* Kraken spawn time reduced by approximately 1/3rd.
* Termites will now be hostile to almost everything
* Updated engineer class description to correctly show the aug tweak bonus.
* Added Fuchsia Panther skin.
* Fixed a typo in one of the emp notification messages
* Base Amplification Blueprint description now properly states the 3 day time requirement to activate from 7.
* New generic DG consumable drops; more extracted commodity crystals/crates, pirate crest crates, and tokens that count for Honorary Mention/Diploma exchange.

- Server Changes -
* Added options for enabling/disabling fighter and missile launching for bots.
* Added an option for equipping/unequipping all diffusers on a bot at once.
* Fixed a bug where DGs would sometimes set inappropriate lockouts on their boss spawners
* Made Astral Travel and Glory skills auto-remove themselves from players that had them and return skill points to them as they no longer have any use.
* Added support for stacking certain types of construction speed boosts
* Implemented async galaxy idle which should allow a galaxy to lag without lagging the whole universe. As a nice side effect, some functions become more responsive even in a lagging galaxy (docking, jumping, inventory management and instant use items).
* Fix for a bug that prevented the “free bvb slot” from working if your team had any drones in the system (drones were counted as a teamed base and took the place of the free slot).
* Bot would not launch fighters if it would leave them with less than 1k total energy. This was problematic on lower level bot or high regen energy with no bank. Changed to prevent launch if it would drop them lower than 10% energy up to at most 1k.
* Fix to support multiple beacons in a single galaxy. When jumping into a galaxy with multiple beacons, pick a beacon in the following priority order. In same squad and team > in same squad > in same team > any other drone. Drones whose owner or team hates you cannot be used.
* Comets drop re-enabled.

- Client Changes -
* Improved the client Preload to show a better estimation of the whole progress and added shader compilation to the preload (instead of moving fast then freezing for a long time at the end)
* Added ships meshes to preload data to reduce lag when entering sol for the first time.
* Improved memory limit management a bit more, this should make the client more resilient to out of memory errors.
* The client can now allocate up to 3.4gb memory up from the previous 1.6gb, on low settings it should not make any difference, but will allow the highest setting to keep everything in memory and also allow non dds textures to be used (It is strongly recommended you use DDS for normal play, only disable it if you are editing textures and want to test the changes quickly)
* DDS textures quality has been improved quite a bit by properly handling the alpha channel on our textures.
* Improved normal map quality which should result in less visible artefact on ships
* Improved glowmap rendering. They are now much sharper than before.
* New background client state detection and handling. It should be a lot harder to notice when the client become in background state and when it does its less intense than before.
* Background assets loading. Textures and mesh now load in low priority in background while you play, resulting in mostly the performance of full preload, with the game starting speed of not preloading. Multiple clients are aware of each other and sync their load to reduce the strain on the system.
* Fixed a case where having an intel and another gpu while using the other gpu (nvidia/amd) still caused the intel to be detected and some restrictions added to the render. This resulted in the few users having both gpu losing a bit of performance.
* Fixed a crash in the optimized mesh generation.
* Improved data gathering for some crashes in the UI.

- 324.443 -
* Fix for a crash introduced in 324.435
- 324.435 –
* Assets preloading is no longer done upfront and instead is handled in background. The total loading time is similar but you can now log in right away instead of having to wait for the loading to complete. (this mean the game start as fast as it used to without texture preloading, but after a minute or two has the same performance has a preloaded client).
* Improved the background detection and rendering. It should be a lot less intrusive now, it no longer reduce the graphic quality and only impact the fps. Disabling background rendering will leave the last frame rendered as the image until the window is brought back to foreground.
* Modified the dds texture generation to reduce the size and improve the quality.
* Made glowmap rendering much sharper.
* Improved normal map rendering to get rid of weird graphic artifact on some ships when seen from specific angles.
* Client crash fix in the target ring rendering code.
* Support for locked “LOCKED” mission mechanic on test server.

Those changes are available in the beta client which can be downloaded here https://www.starsonata.com/beta-client-download/

* Improved the client Preload to show a better estimation of the whole progress and added shader compilation to the preload (instead of moving fast then freezing for a long time at the end)
* Added ships meshes to preload data to reduce lag when entering sol for the first time.
* Improved memory limit management a bit more, this should make the client more resilient to out of memory errors.
* The client can now allocate up to 3.4gb memory up from the previous 1.6gb, on low settings it should not make any difference, but will allow the highest setting to keep everything in memory and also allow non dds textures to be used (It is strongly recommended you use DDS for normal play, only disable it if you are editing textures and want to test the changes quickly)
* Fixed a case where having an intel and another gpu while using the other gpu (nvidia/amd) still caused the intel to be detected and some restrictions added to the render. This resulted in the few users having both gpu losing a bit of performance.
* Fixed a crash in the optimized mesh generation.
* Improved data gathering for some crashes in the UI.

Those changes are available in the beta client which can be downloaded here
