Changes as of January 31, 2019
Campaign
REDACTED derelict now only appears in more interesting star systems with more potential for habitation
Adjusted price of (P) ships to account for their lack of built-in d-mods
Ships with "Militarized Subsystems" no longer get increased maintenance from capacity-increasing logistics hullmods
And can have Safety Overrides
Intel planet list: replaced "value" column with planet survey class
Added "free port" to several pirate colonies
Free port:
Stability penalty goes from 1 to 3 over time instead of being fixed at 3
Accessibility bonus goes from 5% to 25% (was: 10 to 50)
Fixed commodity tooltip issue in "market share" screen
Buffalo (A), Kite (A): replaced "Militarized Hegemony Auxiliary" with "Militarized Subsystems"
Officer picker dialog now shows personality for officers over current maximum
Changed item outline color in industry screen to better highlight installed items
Player faction should no longer use combat freighters instead of a portion of combat/freighter ships in patrols etc
May still use combat freighters in place of combat ships, if priority settings allow it
Orbital Works: added ship quality bonus to tooltip
Colonies:
Industries separated into "Industries" (Mining, Farming, etc) and "Structures" (Spaceport, Orbital Station, etc)
Type shown in tooltip and "add industry or structure" dialog
"Industry" type also highlighted in colony screen (solid background behind name)
Maximum number of industries limited to a value based on colony size
From 1 at size 3 to 4 at size 8 and above
Only one ongoing construction project (new industry or structure, NOT upgrades) per colony
Can queue more construction projects
Doubled population growth required to increase colony size
Doubled population growth incentive cost
A colony with no industries receives an additional growth penalty (unemployment etc)
Upkeep reduction from REDACTED core reduced to 25% (was: 50%)
Total upkeep for a colony is reduced by up to 25% based on demand filled by in-faction sources
Income from exports no longer counts demand at player colonies for total market value
Income at non-player-owned colonies no longer shown as it's no longer accurate
When the player establishes a new colony, it automatically begins construction of a Spaceport, free of extra cost
Significantly increased the build time for most industries, structures, and their upgrades
Some examples:
Farming: 30 -> 60
Heavy Industry: 60 -> 120
Megaport: 30 -> 150
Tech-Mining:
No longer supplies economic units of commodities
Increased monthly drops for smaller ruin sizes
Added administrators to the larger core world colonies
Target of REDACTED mission no longer spawns right next to a black hole
Pirate and Pather bases should no longer spawn next to a black hole
Added "danger level" indicator to fleet tooltips
Added bar event to aid in locating Pather base
Luddic Path bases show up under "Colony threats" tag when targeting player colonies
Patrols:
Will no longer prevent play from docking when engaged in battle
Or more than 1000 units away
"Deserter" pirate bounty fleets now use faction-specific weapons/fighters, instead of drawing from the usually-inferior pirate set
Taking over or destroying a comm relay/nav buoy/sensor relay in a system where the owning faction has no colonies will no longer have any impact on your reputation
Removed stack size limit of 1000 from player cargo
Maximum quantity that can be picked up using slider increased to 5000
Can now see CR level of stored ships
Pirate bases:
Can no longer repeatedly spawn in the same system without some time passing
Reduced likelihood of player colonies being targeted by pirate bases that are very far away
Increased average interval between patrol spawns to 2 weeks (was: 1 week)
Also affects combat fleets from pirate and Pather bases
As before, the interval is reduced significantly when an existing patrol returns
Increased respawn delay for REDACTED fleets
Added unique icon for comm sniffer intel item
Industrial Planning: level one now reduces upkeep by 10% instead of reducing demand
Reduced time-scaling of person bounties
Intel UI (including map) now takes up more space if available
Jump-point dialog warning about fleets on the other side now only shown if there's enough fuel to jump
Raids/expeditions/etc that are being organized (i.e. not yet assembling) will be aborted if the colony is either destroyed or its military base is disrupted
Made "Missile Autoforge" hullmod visible on station modules and REDACTED
Navigation skill: now modifies individual fleet member fuel use (rather than fleetwide)
Effect shows up in ship tooltip
Added Prometheus Mk.II to Pather fleets
Added Atlas Mk.II to pirate fleets
Starting relationship with Luddic Path changed to -65 (was: -50)
Salvaging: +50% bonus for rare items will no longer result in a full re-roll and will simply result in "more stuff" compared to without the skill
Battelstations and Star Fortresses now have officers
Installing an Alpha Core on any level station still grants a level 20 officer with Gunnery Implants
Made a few performance improvements
Punitive expeditions:
Fixed issue with wrong reason being displayed sometimes
Reduced strength of initial punitive expeditions sent
Reduced high-end expedition space strength
Increased high-end expedition ground strength
More variety in which colonies are targeted
Will no longer be sent out by the faction the player is commissioned by, if any
Will result in a 5-point reputation penalty when/if the expedition fails
No reputation penalty for fighting the expedition's fleets
Reputation cost to avert reduced to 20 points
Takes roughly twice as long for factions to build up towards sending an expedition
After 2-3 expeditions are sent (total, by all factions), no expeditions will be sent for 6 to 12 months
This does not include pirate raids or inspections
Reduced the size of later-game pirate raids by half
Fleet spawning:
Will not produce fleets with more than 30 ships
Stronger fleets will have many more large ships
This increases both their ground-raiding strength and their effectiveness vs stations
Can now abandon colonies up to size 4
Fleet/station interactions:
Destroying/disabling/forcing enough enemy ships to retreat during an engagement allows your fleet to disengage without being pursued
Works when your fleet is over the disengage size limit, but not limited to this
Indicator in combat screen shows progress towards this
Currently set to 40% of enemy fleet or 100 deployment points, whichever is lower
When a fleet that's "too large to disengage" engages an enemy station supported by other fleets:
Can always disengage without being pursued
But, the enemy fleet will harass the retreat, causing a drop in CR
Stations will no longer try to disengage when outnumbered
When joining an ongoing battle, allied fleets will prefer to pursue instead of harry/let go when possible
When losing a battle: special items such as blueprints, AI cores, survey data, etc, no longer have a chance to be lost
Patrols:
Will no longer force the player to fight when weaker and stopping them for the transponder being off or for a cargo scan
Music will no longer switch to another track when passing near a star system, actually entering it is required
"Typical heavy patrol" on Doctrine & blueprints screen now more closely matches a typical heavy patrol
Uses best ship quality in player faction
Uses appropriate number of tankers/freighters
Combat:
Total battle size in vs-station battles is increased by the deployment cost of the station
Ships should find it much harder to go outside the map boundary
Miscellaneous:
Can now left-click outside the hullmod picker dialog to dismiss it
Weapon tooltip:
Now properly handles weapons with a very large interruptible burst
Moved flux/second to be under damage/second
Stripping a hull will now force weapon groups to be reassigned on deployment if there are unassigned weapons
"Escape" battles: ships deployed on the flanks will start 4000 units closer to the top of the map
Ships:
Harbinger: changed 3 medium hardpoints to "energy" (was: "synergy")
Increased refit time for most bombers by somewhere around 3-5 seconds
Perdition: increased OP cost to 15 (was: 12), increased refit time to 15 (was: 10)
Phaeton, Starliner: reduced max burn by 1
Gemini: increased max burn by 1
Ship AI:
Reduced aggressiveness when facing a station but given an order that targets something other than the station
Will no longer use High Energy Focus or other weapon-boosting systems when all affected weapons are on cooldown
Fixed some broadside AI issues
Fixed autopilot issue when "invert turn-to-cursor behavior" setting was checked
Reacts more quickly to "primed" friendly mines
Burn Drive:
Should no longer be used when a ship has an assignment and is not facing towards the assignment target
One exception being when trying to get away from an enemy behind the ship
Will not burn towards targets that have the "Avoid" order
Improved behavior around borders
Ships with limited fighters wings (no bombers and <=1 for cruisers and below, <=2 for capital) are more conservative about using these to engage the enemy
Fixed issue where carriers would occasionally "engage" their fighters on targets under fog of war
Legion, Mora: will no longer hide behind combat ships
Improved command obedience
Fixed issue that could cause ship to back off from a target due to flanking - but insignificant - threats
Fixed several issues that could cause a ship with front shields to turn slightly away from the target, seemingly without a reason
Fixed an issue that could cause REDACTED ships to wander around the battle map instead of engaging the player
Non aggressive/reckless officers will be more careful about maintaining range from the enemy
Made some tweaks to evasion logic that should make ships less likely to try to "pivot" around an enemy at too close a range
Should improve survivability
Escort behavior overhauled
Does a better job positioning escorting ships to ward off flanking enemies
Does a better job not getting in the way of the parent ship's fire
Does a better job handling broadside ships
(Still more likely to get in their line of fire if escorting one)
Capital ships and cruisers with an escort assignment now only turn towards fighters if no other targets are in range
Should fix a number of cases where a ship appears to be over-aggressive and dies for "no reason"
Can more smoothly handle a larger number of frigates escorting the same ship
Much more consistent and predictable overall
Modding:
Added FighterWingAPI.getReturning()
Added to ShipAPI:
isLiftingOff()
Ships with modules can now retreat properly - that is, the modules aren't left behind
Fixed issue where "replace" files were not getting detected correctly depending on use of forward of back slashes in path
Can now successfully deactivate() abilitites that are not isUsable()
Viewing intel for systems that are not connected to hyperspace will no longer crash the game
Added NO_AUTO_ESCORT ship hint, makes carriers not hide behind nearby combat ships
Used by Mora and the Legion
A colony in hyperspace will no longer trigger a "transponder off" warning when jumping into hyperspace
Increased clarity of some of the thrown exceptions
Fixed crash caused by abandoning orbital-station-only colony

Added to beam weapon .wpn files: fringeScrollSpeedMult
tag_data.json: now properly reads in the "name" field
Added to FactionAPI:
Map<String, String> getMusicMap()
Added to LocationAPI:
MemoryAPI getMemoryWithoutUpdate();
Music:
Added MusicPlayerPlugin interface; implementation specified via "musicPlugin" in settings.json
Can create arbitrary number of campaign music states for different locations/conditions/etc
Method that picks music set for combat gets passed in a CombatEngineAPI
Can specify a $musicSetId for star systems, markets, and entities to override default plugin behavior

Impact Mitigation 1: now properly applies +150 armor instead of +150% armor
Centurion-class frigate now only spawns in larger fleets (as was intended), instead of only in smaller fleets
