Updated to 1.9.0.5

Thanks, good to see continued fast updates.

Love the fix-list for 1.9.0.5, that's a very long list of extremely annoying problems fixed. Thanks to the team for listening to fan feedback and making the changes so quickly. Well done!

Full Change List for 1.9.0.5 from 1.9.0.4:

PIRATES
- pirate protection agreement costs better matched to empire cashflow (i.e. ability to pay)

Mmmhhh, I think there's a serious problem with that one. With 1.9.0.4 pirates used to rape me and my wallet, it was insane but nothing surprising, I wasn't supposed to be anything but a cash cow for them.

Since I've installed 1.9.0.5 in less than half an hour I've had 2 pirate factions proposing to PAY ME for a truce, that doesn't make any sense ! [X(]

BOARDING AND CAPTURE
- captured bases at colonies of other empires will now self-destruct

Oh boy, the game just became more exciting.

Er does this mean there is no longer a reason for base capture?

Will a .4 game loaded into .5 benefit from these particular crash fixes?

As long as your crashes are among those that are fixed, sure it will help.

Impossible to answer with any guarantee - if any of the fixed crashes happen to due a chain of events that can be put into a savegame, it might still cause them.

Now updated to 1.9.0.6

You made my day!

I had the following error when I updated from 1.9.04 to 1.9.05 when I would click Start New Game:

Updating to Microsoft Framework 4.5 and 1.9.06 fixed this error. I am quite happy, I was going crazy.

-Windows 7 64bit

Great looking patch!

Thanks guys

Oh man, you guys just made my weekend. Great that armour was fixed, but also:

- AI ship design process no longer creates unbuildable new designs (too large)

Thank you!!

- altered "Random" proximity setting in Game Startup to distribute starting empires *EVENLY* across the galaxy

YEEEEEEEEEESSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS! [&o]

1.9.0.6 has a sweet list of fixes [&o]

Does someone have a screenshot of that Pirate mission window enhancement?

0.6 sounds awesome. Thanks for the hard work!

Great Job guys! [&o]

Might be a nice patch but at present I really don't know. I can't download the thing. The link doesn't work.

The easiest is to update from the game launcher.

If you don't get the file on download, make sure to refresh the page. It may also not hurt to ctrl-F5 to refresh it, as that should force a reload and not just a cashed copy.
