Stellaris Dev Diary #39 - Back in Action

Hello Stellaris fans! I hope you're all having a lovely summer. The holy month of July is now over, and Paradox developers are slowly trickling back into the office, tanned and rested. Having just returned to work today myself, I just thought I would write a short dev diary to tell you briefly what is coming.

With the 1.1 "Clarke" and 1.2 "Asimov" patches released, we are now going to start working on 1.3, dubbed "Heinlein". We previously mentioned Heinlein in dev diary 33, but we've since changed the scope for it somewhat. Ever since we released the game, we've received some fantastic feedback from our players, far more than we felt that we were able to address in 1.1 and 1.2. As such, Heinlein will be a patch focusing on addressing community feedback and implementing community suggestions.

Mind you, the change in focus doesn't mean none of the things mentioned in the previous dev diary will show up, as we know several of them to be highly desired features. It just means we are going to adjust our plans to get some of the things we know that you want to you sooner than was previously planned. There will also be a small patch this week on Thursday, August 4th along with the release of the Plantoids Species Pack.

Next week's dev diary will have more details about Heinlein. Until then, enjoy the August sun (or just sit inside and play Stellaris, I won't judge).

As far as I have been told, the "spaceship bonuses" detailed on the tooltip of spaceport modules only affect spaceships constructed at that spaceport. The tooltip could be a lot more clear on this point.

Then it would be more clear and fun, if a given space-port module gave you access to special components which are only buildable from a spaceport with a given resource.
It would gthen be clear for me what I get, and how.

A bonus which I never see isn't good.

I would love for a toggle to turn off certain UI elements at will (i.e. research stations/mining stations, non combat ships etc)

The star system view can sometimes get a bit ridiculously cluttered.
