1.2.0.2 problem. My Akdarian explorers are refusing to explore... because the game is not putting Warp Bubble generators on them... because they are not designing ships with warp bubble generators even after I researched it.

Changing the new weapon and component focuses didn't help. I had to manually upgrade them.

Thanks, we're aware of the issue and are investigating.

1.2.0.4 fixed some bugs I experienced, looking good so far after a few short tests with different species. Will test longer game next.

Are we still planning to get Human faction updates as part of this beta cycle or have they been pushed back to a future release? I remember Erik mentioning these updates in the roadmap for January betas. Thank you!

As you say it is in the roadmap but I suspect there is some delay. I don't know their current timeframe, but my guess is they are not that far away.

"The first of these, the Humans and Mortalen, should be available in the January beta updates, with the Boskara and Zenox to follow in the next round after that."

1.2.0.5 has been release as the official "Stellar" update today.

We are working on the Human and Mortalen faction refresh and hope to have a public beta out at the end of this week or sometime next week with those improvements for public testing.
