=== Fixes ===
*Fixed annoying bug where the suggested credits in the trade window would not result in a "fair" trade
*Fixed typos
*Fixed an issue where a ship wouldn't be award by events if you were Altarian
*Fixed some bad prereqs on the economic starbase module
*Fixed a fog of war issue in mp restored games
*Fixed an issue that could cause stuck turns in multiplayer
*Fixed crashes storing stat history
*Fixed an exploit where players could circumvent range with rally points
*We no longer show an out of range message if the ship you have selected isn't one you own
*Fixed an issue where the turn count on research wasn't correct
*Fixed an issue that could cause sound popping when opening windows
*Fixed a crash when the starbase queue got to long
*Fixed an issue where the background on the diplomacy screen goes black if you close and open it to fast
*Fixed a crash if you request to many constructors from a starbase
*Fixed a crash when destroying a planet
*Fixed a crash when loading a save
*Fixed a crash caused by the AI manipulating the sponsor list directly instead of in a buffer
*Fixed crash if you had prefs with no valid players listed at all
*Fixed an issue where deleting a unique colony improvement allowed you to rebuild it on every colony
*Fixed a crash if the game is ended while there are popups in the popup queue, and some popup insert order fixes
*Added a check to gray out Yor assembly projects so that you cant run them when your population is already capped
*Fixed crash if you obsoleted every ship, waiting enough turns for the designs to be deleted, then opened the designer wnd and selected "upgrade ship", caused by the screen not having a "nothing selected" state
*Fixed bug where manually cancelling an alliance treaty didn't actually change the diplomatic state between the two factions from allied
*Added a better system for collision detection (ie: when the player needs to be informed because a decision must be made like an invasion, battle, etc)
*Fixed an issue where some players dont have any UI if they don't have permission to write to their game directories
*Fixed an issue where low end Intel cards would have their defaults set higher than recommended for a card with no video memory
*Fixed an issue keeping the Drengin from building the Restaurant of Eternity
*Fixed issue were solar power planet was being blocked by antimatter power plant
*Fixed an issue where corrupt ship designs would be created if you had a UP popup while in the ship designer screen
*Fixed an issue where a game can continue receiving event messages even after exiting a multiplayer game. This usually caused a crash.

=== Balance ===
*Ship Graveyards are somewhat more common
*Ship graveyards only have 2 pirate attackers instead of 3 now
*Rush cost multiplier reduced from 15X to 10X Population exponent to production changed from 0.7 to 1.0
*Population to production multiplier changed from 2.0 to 1.0
*Base resistance on colonies changed from 50% to 25%
*40% to 60% approval has no affect or penalty on production anymore
*Adaptive Farm food reduced from 4 to 3
*Intensive Farm food reduced from 6 to 4
*Lossless Farm reduced from 8 to 5 food
*Cargo (trade) module cost reduced from 27 to 10
*"You are weak" modifier no longer a factor early game
*"You are ripe for conquest" modifier only a factor mid game and on
*Fair trade is now a <= comparison rather than a < comparison
*Map sizes balanced more based on their actual sizes
*Habitable planet creation balanced for larger maps
*Time before first shot lowered from 3 seconds to 1 second
*Min small explosions increased from 1 to 2
*Medium ship explosions decreased from 14 to 5
*Engine trail vertices reduced from 1000 to 100
*Carrier modules reduced from 3 units to 2 units
*Kinetic weapons increased in cost but reduced in mass requirement
*Rebalance on resource required improvements
*Updated Yor Techs and Improvements to limit Yor Population cap to a max of 48 from 60
*Nerfed Prolific Ability from +100% to +50% population on colonization
*Renamed Prolific Ability to Abundant since it was named the same as the Prolific Ability, Nerfed it slightly from +5, to +3 population on colonization
*Bump up Mass of Mass Drivers, kept them flat, so they don’t get heavier, but made them all 10 instead of 6, as it was with miniaturization mass driver races could get a singularity driver down to 3.5 which more or less meant they could out gun anything in the galaxy. As they are now they are a bit heavy for their damage to start, but become better and better as you go up the tree. Even at 10 they might be a bit 0P.
*Bumped up railgun damage 1, and lowered stinger damage by 2
*Changed Agile trait to use flat modifiers
