Stellaris

Updated from 3.7.4 to 3.8.1 on Windows, Mac and Linux.

Changelog present (1/3)
VERSION 3.8.1 - Gemini
FEATURES
* Added two Cooperative modes, allowing up to five players per empire. More information can be found in Stellaris Dev Diary #293.
* Cooperative PvE can be initiated from the main menu - all players that hotjoin the hosted game will join the primary player’s empire. This mode is primarily intended for teaching new players or for lower intensity cooperative gameplay.
* Cooperative PvP can be allowed by the host of a standard multiplayer game. When enabled, empires can open themselves up to allow other players to help control their empire. We expect this game mode to be useful for competitive team play.
* Please note that Cooperative modes are still considered to be a beta, and may be less stable than standard multiplayer, or may have some unusual experiences. We will continue to polish and refine Cooperative mode over the next few patches.
* Empire Council: Ruling a Galactic Empire is hard work, and your council of trusty leaders is there to help you. Base-game Stellaris now includes a ruling council, where up to three leaders will assist you in ruling your empire - your Ruler, your Head of Research, and your Defense Minister.
* Each leader gives bonuses to their area of expertise, which grow increasingly more powerful as they level up over time.
* Gestalts will have a collection of immortal “nodes”, that will level up and gain new traits over time, which we feel better suits them thematically.
* Ruler Creator: Added a new step in Empire Creation that permits the selection of your ruler’s appearance and starting trait(s).
* Renowned Leaders: Updated several leaders to use new Leader systems:
* Updated Tuborek with new effects to use the Paragon System.
* Updated Reth Unddol with new visuals and effects to use the Paragon System.
* Updated Gray's Menu and effects to use Paragon Systems.
* Updated the Caretaker with new visuals and effects to use the Paragon System.
* Updated the S875.1 Warform with new visuals and effects to use the Paragon System.
* Updated the Oracle with new visuals and effects to use the Paragon System.
* Ground Combat and Bombardment Changes: Several changes have been made to armies and bombardment.
* Army Builder tab added to starbases, which allows easier creation of Assault Armies across a sector.
* An army can be set as a Rally Point - new troops will automatically try to merge with this fleet (regardless of whether they were queued with the Army Builder or the old Recruit button).
* Planets can now select whether or not to Deploy in Orbit any newly recruited armies.
* Planets can now be taken through Orbital Bombardment if all defending troops have been killed. A policy can be set if you wish to refuse this form of surrender, and planets will not surrender to genocidal opponents.
* Bombardment is significantly more damaging than it used to be. More pops will die, and more buildings and districts will be ruined.
* Orbital Bombardment will now scale with the amount of ships bombarding, the first 100 fleet size ships will do full damage, after that each additional 100 fleet size will add 70% of that efficiency. For example, 300 fleet capacity worth of ships will deal 100% + 70% + (0,7^2 = 49%) = 219% total worth of bombardment damage.
* Bombardment effects are scaled based on the number of pops, buildings, and planet size. Small dense planets will suffer greater losses than large, sparsely populated planets.
* Ground Combat is also more devastating to planets than it used to be, but much less so than bombarding.
* The effect of collateral damage from different army types have also been adjusted, previously the collateral damage on army types was a linear value and not a multiplier, which meant that in practice high damage high collateral units like Xenomorphs could effectively do less collateral damage on the planet compared to normal troops because they would kill the enemy troops very quickly. This is no longer the case as the collateral damage modifier now acts as a multiplier on any damage dealt.
* Planetary Capital buildings now spawns 0/4/8/16 defensive armies for free based on the tier of the building.
* Sector Editor: It is now possible to edit Sectors in the Planets and Sectors screen. Systems can be freely moved between sectors as long as they are in range of the Sector Capital. Sector Capitals must now be at least four jumps away from any others.
* Customizable Menu: It is now possible to rearrange the list of options in the left side menu, by pressing the new Cog icon at the top. This will also correspondingly change the hotkeys to open these menus, allowing you to rebind these menu items to whichever F1-F10 key you prefer to have them on.
* Customizable Message Notifications and Toasts: Messages and notifications can now be customized to suit your needs.
* Added a new message type called a “toast”, which pops up and disappears automatically after a brief period of time.
* Settings -> Messages, Ctrl+Click, or cogs (on certain messages) will open the Message Settings menu.
* Messages can be disabled, enabled, or set to automatically pause the game.
* Fleet and Ship Designer:
* Merged into tabs of the same screen.
* Now displays a longer list of fleets.
* Copy Fleet Template and Overwrite Fleet Template features added.
* Delete + Enter will delete a fleet.
* Science Ship Automation: You can now enable or disable more Science Ship automation modules.
* Explore Systems - will explore the galaxy by entering systems and discover any planets and hyperlanes in there
* Survey Systems - will survey new systems the science ship enters
* Investigate Anomalies - will automatically research anomalies
* Excavate Archaeology Sites - will automatically excavate Archaeology sites
* Research Special Projects - will automatically research special projects

IMPROVEMENTS

* The mind-wiped species from On the Shoulders of Giants will now have the Forcefully Devolved trait.
* There is now a 1% chance that a pre-ftl civilization will spawn with the Forcefully Devolved trait.
* Added hotkey 'u' to upgrade fleet button.
* Broken Shackles empires will now have their starting Minister of Defense and Head of Research be recruited from any of the species in their empire.
* Added keyboard command for jumping to the next day, ‘.’
* Added Ship Section Templates to the Ship Designer which allows for easier creation of designs of a certain role, such as carriers or missile focused designs.
* Auto-designed ships and those designed by the ship role button will now only equip archaeo-components if your empire has the Archaeo-Engineers AP.
