5.616 Fixes And Difficulties
(Released February 1st, 2025)

• Fix to ships with lingering "tractored" debuffs.
---• Thanks to Bleh for the report.
• Fix to ships outside the gravity well getting permanently stuck.
---• Thanks to Jaydak for the report.
• Fix to a couple cases where ships could be regenerated (ie, from a Regen Golem) but doing so is inappropriate.
---• Ancestor/Children ships that expire *immediately* with their Progenitor/Parent (ie, destroyer wards).
---• Drones that do not attrition (rare).
• Fix to ships losing their behavior mode.
---• If headed to load into a transport on-planet, and it (the transport) then leaves before they reach it, this was accidentally clearing the current behavior mode when it added the "move through wormhole" order to reach its transport.
• Fix to ships in "stop to shoot" not disengaging to load.
---• This issue occurred specifically when the transport is not on the same planet.

① Sidekicks
• Fix a bug where the Scourge Empire could get multiple copies of their Scourge Vassals
---• Thanks to The Grand Mugwump for reporting
• Hopefully fix a bug where the additional Ark Empire arks wouldn't work right
---• Fix minimally tested
---• Thanks to FreedomMoped
• Upgrading Scourge Spawners and Armories is cheaper for the Scourge Infused Empire
• The Dark Zenith flagships should now longer wrap around their unit transformations
---• Thanks to The Grand Mugwump for reporting
• The Scourge Infused Empire Techs for each race now list explicitly what hybridization combinations exist

② New AI Difficulties
• These new AI Difficulties are about trying to find ways to make a harder AI that relies less on having lots of ships and more on other balance levers
---• These should hopefully provide variety for existing players, and also to allow for MP games to get harder without generating more network traffic (or for players with lower computer specs)
---• These will show as "Difficulty 7" if you look at the Esc menu. I'm not actually sure how hard they are compared to regular AI difficulties, and would be interested as to feedback.
• Wily Badger
---• Smart, but weaker economically (between a 5 and a 6)
• Powerful Badger
---• Smart, but weaker economically (between a 5 and a 6)
---• In addition, will get higher mark levels earlier, and has strong responses to hacks and counterattacks
• Sneaky Badger
---• Smart. Economically around a 6, but gets early wormhole invasion. The ships are more cautious, and really like killing metal generators
• Core Badger
---• Economically a 5, but climbs mark levels very quickly. They really hate command stations.
