Free Orion 0.3.10 Updated 28 Sep 08 14:58
 posted by nath
Category: under development
Avg. Rating: 4.214.214.214.21

Description: FreeOrion is an open-source, platform independant galactic conquest game

Changelog:

  • Toggles to turn off galaxy gas rendering and optimized star rendering that might cause problems for people with older video cards.
  • Various art additions, including ship parts.
  • Updated AI scripts.
  • Removed the very verbose usage / command line output when outdated config.xml is present, and allowed the game to keep running in this case, just ignoring any invalid entries in the file.
  • Various Design screen UI improvements.
  • Improved default layout on the tech screen.
  • Various tech / content additions. You now need a shipyard to build ships, and start with one in your home system.
  • New panel of military-related indicators on the sidepanel, for things like shields and fleet supply range.
  • Ship hulls and parts can now be given effects, and some have had some added to do things like give ships more fuel capacity.
  • Tweaked how meter estimates are recalculated after focus changes, hopefully to improve some reported horrendously long delays after changing focus in long / big games.
  • Various translation updates.
  • A selector on the galaxy setup screen now allows one to select how many AIs are in new single player games.
  • Added a preliminary list view to the tech screen.
  • Ships now require and consume fuel while moving, and get it replenished when not moving in a fleet-supplied system, which are indicated by the scrolling dashed lines emanating from systems. Fleets now have a fuel indicator on their panels in the fleets window.
  • Various other bug fixes (and additions).
