Star Control Origins v1.02 (Released 10/03)

Hello,

Greetings!  We are working on a balance and stability patch for you.  We've increased the number of resources found on select worlds and made the drones a bit less deadly.  Also, we've fixed some crashed related to landing on planets. Please read below for details:

Gameplay

• Quasi-Degenerate world toxicity decreased slightly.
• A couple of the starting planets have more resources.
• Yttrick Planet is wealthier
• Actinide planets are richer.
• Opalescent planet class is richer with better minerals (it's a pretty rare planet and it's so pretty).
• Sapphire planets have more mineral spawn points.
• Added some new mineral spawn points for craters.
• Reduced difficulty of Scryve Juggernaut (non-boss) and Xraki boss battles.
• Your allies recognize the threat better and will share ships with you more cheaply.
• Lowered damage of planetside Drones
• Cloud hazards do less damage but have a larger area of effect
• Boosted AI fleet coordinator
• Great Void starbase and Drakend starbases now have a fuel module to buy.
• Star labels of visited systems are greyed out in the sector map list.
• Tweaked the "visited system" label colors.
• Slight camera improvement for the lander.
• Reduced the number of critters and hazards on Organic worlds

Bugs / Perf.

• Fixed crashes reported by users
• Reduced Memory usage while saving
• Fix for the Menkmack Ear Schemer not being spawned if you come by this quest from another direction
• Fixed for low machines crashing on planets with heavy visual effects (e.g. Venus)
• Improved perf of the end battle on low machines
• Improved perf for worlds with lots of vegetation.
