Great work! Nice fixes/changes allround.
- increased chance of randomly generating new intelligence agents
- New Start Game options: empire territory colony influence size slider (defaults to current setting), maximum colonization range slider (this is off by default)
Those were definetly needed. Fixes to designing also sound good. Can't wait for the external designs. Should fix the puny AI designs quite well.

I just want to say.. I am a happy Cube because of the Max Colonization Range slider. That was my last major complaint with the game, and I should now be able to create games with the EXACT pacing that I desire. Combine that with the ship design improvements and well.. I'm happy. Thank you!
You guys have outdone yourselves here, truly. This is one of the best patches for any 4x Game i've ever seen, and I can't wait to play it. I see a ton of (optional!) things in there that were in the Master Wishlist thread, which is absolutely awesome. Thank you.

It is only small change. I'm sure that SoI doesn't influence on diplomatic relations and reputation as I wanted.

Yes thanks very much !
What I would like to see in the next update is the ability to ask for mining and refuel rights as well as building rights in a foreign empire.

We did look into adding an option for "soft" borders where you would get a more severe diplomatic hit for mining/colonization without permission within the borders of other factions, rather than be unable to do that at all, but it proved to be a very risky change at this point, as many of the other systems and improvements in Legends are built on top of the borders system. We may revisit this in the future as we recognize that this would enable more playstyle options, but unlikely for this update.

Hi everyone,
We are working on the installer, but there are always other priorities as well. We should have it finished and posted today.

There is a silent hush across DW space as people wait patiently, and perhaps even impatiently for
V1.7.0.8
