changedNow sadly, this will not be able to load saves from your 4.7 based games :( BUT - the good news is that all galaxies in 4.8 (and onward) should be loadable in all future versions of the game! Unless I go totally crazy and turn it into a Pokemon-themed anime FPS game, you never know.
addedAdded a couple more ships * Sleeper Service to bring back long gone empires * Retro arcade style monsters / empires * Added blacklist to forbid or allow certain ships and artifacts * Tilted empire names option * A bunch of bugs fixed
changedI am certainly already working on 4.9, which promises to include things like a Culture system, the ability to create custom maps from a single image file (those NASA images turn into gorgeous galaxies), a big ol' Dreadnaught, more ways that Morons can screw up - e.g. by getting their artifacts to malfunction in creative ways, an option to block empires spawning from neutral, and many more. Even some performance improvements! Join the Discord to get more updates.
