Edit:
Unplayable late game at war, massive lags. Buttons react after many seconds.
Time jumps from example 4.11. to 9.11.

Changes in 1.0.8.0 (October 14th, 2022):

CRASH FIXES
- fixed crash that sometimes occurred when declaring war

DIPLOMACY AND REPUTATION
- rebalanced all reputation impacts from various events
- capped maximum and minimum reputation levels
- reputation impact from events is halved when above or below high or low thresholds, meaning that extreme reputation levels, once achieved, are slower to shift
- less concern over others' reputations when you and other faction both have positive or negative reputation levels, i.e. more concerned when other faction has opposite reputation to you as well as a significant reputation gap
- updated Empire Reputation Galactopedia article to include explanation of Slavery and Extermination colony population policies
- ensure all techs valued properly in trade deal screen (none should be zero unless truly worthless to other faction)

START NEW GAME SCREEN
- ensure player starting relation level for other empires (Start New Game screen) excludes pirate protection and selects correct trade treaty (RTA, LTA, FTA)
- in Start New Game screen now use tooltips to indicate when large galaxies may cause performance issues on less capable systems

UI IMPROVEMENTS
- made it clearer in user interface when undertaking an action that will very negatively affect your reputation: Bombardment, Slavery and Extermination colony policies, declaring war in wrong situation (insufficient justification, too soon since last war, existing Non Aggression treaty, existing Defense treaty), invading independent colonies, invading colonies when not at war, destroying colonies
- Control Center now pauses list updates while hovering over list items (list items retain order) to avoid having to deal with list changes while trying to take a list action
- now immediately updates right-click mission for hovered item when select an item via hotkey (no need to move mouse), e.g. allow immediate right-click attack of hovered enemy target when select fleet via hotkey

EXPLORATION
- ensure range for discovering lost colony exceeds exploration range so that exploration ships always discover

OTHER
- avoid using reserved spending to build planetary facilities when automation is Suggest. Instead wait until have funds then suggest to player,

- Fleets still only jumps in short time when I zoom in to them.
Long story (new game only 300 stars):
I let the game run for 4 hours. It was war and i had strong fleets with strong attack troops but no enemy colony get conquered. I focus an invasion fleet and zoom to it and it starts flying to an enemy colony and the invasion starts.
No ship has star figthers (custom ship designs). Star fighters make even more problems.
It's easy to reproduce:
Start new game, max settings at generation like Tech 7 and old. Let it run rule in absence and then after 4 hours or maybe immediately start a war.

Defeated empires still exists with no colonies, but they are not listed in game editor.

Invade independent colonies should be negative, but it has to be to deactivate in automation settings.

Vulkan runs realy better. Will there be sometime support for DX11? I have a GTX 1070 with 8GB Ram. The game only does 29% usage.
