Patch Notes - Easy Mode Easier! — StarDrive 2 Steam update #1292949

We've put together a patch here to address a few of the issues that players have raised. The biggest issue is that players feel the game is too difficult even when set on the Easy difficulty. This is now rectified. I won't promise you that you can just breeze on through it, but you will face less external pressures on the easy difficulty and the AI will not be quite so aggressive. Normal+ difficulties will not see major changes. I did, however, change the mininum number of turns that can elapse before an AI contacts you to make a diplomacy deal. They could be a bit spammy before, so now they'll give you a bit more room to breathe. Please let me know what you think of the patch on the forums! Added some optimizations to battles that have tons of fighters (200+). The optimizations will apply to all battles of course, but I'm really aiming at getting the FPS up for those crazy huge battles ...
