== Minor Changes ==
{{VersionChanged|2.0.0}}

A large set of small UI and gameplay adjustments were made to improve performance, consistency, and usability.<br>
{{Spoiler|The ground construction code will check to see if anything should be moved from the queue to active tasks before the 5‑day construction cycle commences.<br>
To improve performance, fleet histories for NPRs and civilian shipping will be retained only for the last five years.<br>
To improve performance, NPRs will not generate ‘Out of Fuel’ events. This is only for display purposes and will not affect NPRs reacting to low fuel.<br>
Added Super‑Heavy Bombardment ground component.<br>
Updated the rescue code so that the fleet ship that picks up a specific life pod is the first ship in a list ordered by Descending Available Cryogenic Capacity then Descending (Class Crew − Current Survivors).<br>
Changed the class designation for auto‑assignment so that cargo holds and ELINT are only checked very late in the process.<br>
‘Assume Fleet is Jump‑Capable’ checkbox on Fleet window is now applied on a fleet basis, rather than as a general setting.<br>
Added 10cm railguns as a point defence choice for NPR designs.<br>
Bodies in Sol system will now start on a random bearing.<br>
Added Race Intelligence Points to Intelligence Window.<br>

Maintenance Modules reduced in cost from 200 to 100 BP.<br>
Added a Raise/Lower Shields button for Fleets.<br>
Terraforming water‑vapour removal will no longer terminate early unless hydro extent is zero.<br>
Ships in orbit of a conquered colony will only surrender if the population is at least ten million.<br>
NPR ship designs may include reduced‑size launchers.<br>
Estimated travel time displayed for mineral packets when a mass driver destination is selected.<br>
Hull abbreviation for classes and ships shown in construction options on Shipyard and Industry tabs.<br>
Spacebar can be used as a hot key for double‑click when adding or removing components from a class design.<br>
Research time for queued projects now includes ancient construct bonuses.<br>
Transport requirements for naval headquarters and spaceports halved to 10 and 40 cargo holds.<br>
Removed the 50 starting research lab limit for NPRs.<br>
Factory‑built Fighters and Space Stations will use their class naming theme.<br>
Ground force formations can be drag‑dropped between bodies if SM mode is active.<br>
Systems with a single star will no longer use “‑A” in names.<br>
Wreck sizes will no longer be rounded down to nearest 50 tons.<br>

Disassembling a component now informs you which tech gains points.<br>
Added SM‑only Edit Wealth button to Wealth/Trade tab.<br>
Removed star system name for moons/planets in second field of mineral search.<br>
