Civilization Cultures
Civilization Cultures! Civilizations will now create and develop their own cultures based on their early background or colonial origins. Cultures develop additional traits over time, providing unique modifiers to civilizations. A culture can spread beyond the borders of a single civilization, and sometimes even outlive the civilization that gave birth to it. Cultures · Added a new Culture syste…

Ice Caps, Sea Levels and Hydrology
Ice caps and water evaporation. With this update, planet land surfaces will no longer have a fixed water-to-land ratio. Instead, it is now actively affected by the level of ice caps on the planet, which will grow and melt depending on the planet’s temperature. If the planet's temperature rises too far beyond livable conditions, the Moist Greenhouse effect can occur, gradually evaporating water…
Added Ultrawide resolution support with instant resolution preview and automatic rollback if the new resolution is not confirmed within 15 seconds. · Fixed Heavy Water Stations remaining in space after their civilization went extinct. · Added pagination to large context action menus, preventing long Inspire and Demand lists from extending beyond the screen.

Time for the Big One. This update adds a new Surface system and greatly expands the early history of civilizations. It is something I wanted to release since day 1. Civilizations no longer appear directly in the Space Age. Intelligent life can now form primitive societies, split into competing factions that grow, build, fight and slowly work toward unifying their planet. I kindly ask for your p…

Entropy and Megaprojects
In the end, everything drifts toward entropy. The universe slowly loses energy and matter throughout its existence. The only thing that counters entropy is Life. This update finally introduces the Entropy Counter, allowing you to see how much your universe has aged and how the life within it counters that decay. Life itself acts as a force slowing entropy down, but why should an advanced civili…
Life Potential tooltips now show the exact Magnetic Field score and explain how different field strengths affect planetary habitability. · Optimized inter-civilization trade processing to reduce late-game spikes while keeping trade flows continuous. · Operational military buildings now gradually reduce civilization Hedonism.

Surface water availability now contributes to planetary Life Potential, preventing low-water worlds from displaying unrealistically perfect habitability. · Planetary resource details now show current extraction and provide a hover breakdown of richness, accessibility, available resources, and Mining Industry bonuses.
Fixed visible horizontal sprite flickering on planets moving along their orbits at higher zoom levels. · Improved the visual stability of planetary information markers while planets move along their orbits. · Improved the visual stability of orbit markers and planetary info brackets.
This update resumes the Geology implementation started back in build 0.4 . The idea is to get some level of control over planetary structure beyond the point of its formation. Let me know how it feels and how much balancing and/or fixes does it needs. :) Cheers! · Added interactive planetary geology layers, allowing players to reveal the planet interior from the surface down to the selected dep…
Added alternate anomaly modes support. (Gravity Well is the first and only one to introduce alternate mode at the moment). Right-click Gravity Well to switch between Standard and Focused modes. Focused mode has 75% less range but a 50% stronger pull. · Fixed an issue where the system mouse cursor could remain visible over the in-game cursor after alt-tab and back to the game.
Gravity Well no longer prevents selecting stars when clicking directly on them while the power is armed. · Gravity Well channeling now hides the mouse cursor while the casting animation is active. · Tutorial popups now appear after a short delay, giving important events a moment to register before guidance interrupts the action. · The first biosphere tutorial now begins only after a sector has…

(build 0.5) Diplomacy and Agreements rework
That one took longer than expected. Some advanced diplomatic pacts are now included but alliances are not part of this build yet. The system may still need some balancing since the sheer number of scenarios and possible diplomatic modifier combinations is quite extensive. Feedback is more than welcome! :) · Civilizations now use a full diplomatic relation score from -100 to 100, shaped by borde…
Inspire Rebellion can now target regional capitals, giving other worlds in the sector a chance to join the uprising and form a larger secession movement (currently 75% chance for each world). · Added a simple cast animation when igniting a rebellion.
Added a collapsible Sector panel. · Added a collapsible Anomalies (divine powers) panel. · Added a collapsible Event Log panel. · Fixed building menu tiles so the whole tile area now responds reliably to clicks.

Newly discovered sectors can now contain civilizations with varied technological development. · Newly discovered sectors can now contain established civilizations with multiple inhabited worlds and starting infrastructure based on their technological development. · Newly discovered civilizations now stabilize their home star on discovery, giving their home system a safer initial lifetime window…
