Map Territories
You can now assign custom colors to other players, and their territories will automatically appear on the map in those colors. You can toggle this feature on or off at any time and adjust the opacity to whatever feels comfortable.
Territory borders are based on the map data you’ve explored. Each star has a territory assigned which is assigned to the player with the most planets in the star system.
Export/Import Planet Building Queues
Setting up Planet Building Queues just got easier, export them once and reuse them in future arenas with only a few clicks.
Export/Import Ship Designs
You can now carry over your ship designs from one arena to another. Simply export the design you want to keep and import them into the new arena. Keep in mind that you do need to have researched all the ship components before you can import a design.
Rebels just got more aggressive!
In previous arenas, Rebels tended to play it safe. Not anymore. They’ll now hunt you down, seize your planets, and laugh at your drifting corpse after ejecting you out of the nearest airlock.
Beware!
Easier Settler Targeting
Settling multiple planets used to be quite a bit of work. This has now been made easier.
1. Select any number of settlers on the map
2. give them the settle command on multiple planets
3. each ship will fly directly to a different planet and settle it
Note: this only works with ships, not fleets and only if you give settle commands.
Buy Buildings With Ore
You can now buy buildings with level 2 ore. More expensive buildings require more ore and buying more buildings at once increases their ore cost for that week. Ore are selected at random for each building at the start of the game.
