In the Demo (pre-1.00), you could click on the planet picture and it would bring up a full report on the planet, including telling about it's cargo and facilities, inhabitants, etcetera.

It was a very useful report.

In v1.00 and also v1.08, clicking on the planet no longer brings up details about the planet. Instead it just makes the picture bigger.

So what are the big fixes?

Do space and ground combat still crash with large numbers of combatants?

Do the majority of troops still mill about aimlessly in ground combat instead of doing something useful?

Has the supply issue with fleets been fixed?

1. Some of that has been fixed.

2. What? I've never seen that. If they've been damaged, they will mill about but that's because they have no weapons left..

3. Yes.

I've just encounted a strange bug, all ground forces are invunurable, both mine and the comps.

On the plus side there's been a huge performance increase in ground combat for me from the demo, which is grand.

New bug: if I try to recover sateliites, one of two things happens.

-if Condensed View is on, I get a message about "XXX ship cannot recover satellites from space".
-if Condensed View is OFF, the game pops an Access Violation.

EDIT2:
workaround: using the "Cargo transfer" button to transfer the sat works. However this works for ANY ship..even ships that shouldn't be able to recover at all.

Can anyone confirm?

EDIT: another, probably unrelated bug:
If I alt-tab out of launch/recover window, then return and close the window, the game crashes with an Access Violation.
