Good day Vanshilar!
I was wondering this too if there will be a 0.97a rc-12 hotfix?

[Helldiver]

There's been quest bugs and stuff reported and then mentioned as fixed shortly after the last RC dropped so there's going to be at least one more for those.

Ok thank you for the reply! 

I just hope there is rc-12 hotfix.

[Alex]

Actually, there definitely will not be another hotfix - I'm already well into developing new features! The bugs that were fixed were not critical, and bugfixing is an ongoing process.

Good day Alex!   
Thank you for clarifying that there will be no another hotfix.
Can you give us atleast a small hint of what upcoming features you are creating?
Im hoping for some super late endgame content farm or boss fight even you don't continue the Galatia Storyline.
Since this is unfortunately the only feature that is lacking in your game.

What's it gonna be 0.97.1a or 0.98a?

Anyways I hope you do well in the next update. 

[Vanshilar]

Awesome! Yeah usually I test various stuff while hotfixes are going on, and then wait until the final hotfix before I start a full playthrough. So it's good to know that I can now start a full game. (Going to be trying out immediately putting some colonies in the core worlds at the very beginning, and see if I can fight off saturation bombings, colony crises, etc. when I do it "wrong".)

Playing around with 0.97 some more, I think it would be a good idea if the Sindian Diktat crisis allowed you to saturation bombard Diktat worlds without the usual dropping everyone to hostile.

It seems odd to me that the Diktat can just get away with attempting to saturation bombard YOUR worlds with impunity - other factions only do this if you settle in a system they claim, and they immediately stop if your colony grows to size 5, because then that would be considered barbaric. But here the Diktat will happily bombard your size 5 or 6 fuel planet, without even a somewhat-justifiable casus belli,  and suffer no penalties to anybody. If they're not beholden to the rules, then why should the player be punished so steeply if they do a retaliatory saturation bombarding of Sindria?

Either punish both, or punish neither.

EXACTLY WHAT I WAS WAITING FOR.

Maybe someone already mentioned it.

But the fleets tied to colony crises, the ones that stop and inspect you?
I find it very funny that if you comply and let them inspect your fleet. They end the interaction with "Don't let me catch you out here again".

Like.. I'm in my own rightfully claimed territory my guy. You're in orbit of MY colony, patrolled by fleets under MY command, in line of sight of MY spacestations. You have no power here. I am just entertaining you for the moment.

There should be a blog post talking about it in the near-ish future

Also, the update to java 17 is official now, we've got everything squared away, and it's running *great*. <knock on wood>

Perspectives on this differ, apparently

On the topic of those fleets, I do kind of wish they spawned at their home ports and headed over, rather than materializing near my colonies. They tend to pop back up quite a bit quicker than I'd expect, to the point where the player's options seem to be either avoiding his own colonies until the crises run out, or dealing with perpetual costs due to trade disruption. Counterintuitive - colonies do worse rather than better when the player is nearby.

Hegemony is like "Do you have a flag? No flag no country.."

Yes, we do!  We select a flag the moment we build our first colony.

Sometimes, it is blatantly obvious they magically spawn just off the screen like some RPG random encounter.

(This isn't actually the case, or at least shouldn't be - it's possible to get trade disruptions when you're not there, too.)
