We did it, we finally implemented the new UI! It needs some tweaks and the report, patch map and editor tabs still use the old one, but nontheless it’s a big step forward.

We’ve also been working on new features, some are near implementation even, particularly the planet generator which now can generate both a star and planet with their own properties. We’ve also had some work on introducing pausing and concept art for new features.
