Version 1.3.3

Patch Notes — 1.3.3

A follow-up to Alliance Territorial Control focused on making your alliance's systems easier to manage and defend, a new auto-renew option for the Trade Union, and a batch of combat, donation, and performance fixes.

New to alliance play? See the full Alliances guide, or open Settings → Quick Guides in-game.

New Features

Alliance system management

• New Alliance Systems view lists every system your alliance controls — Headquarters first, then Divisions — with at-a-glance indicators for active building upgrades, defense production, and the shared alliance research.
• Jump straight from the list to dispatch Survey, Harvest, Station, or Donate fleets to any controlled system.
• Alliance building details now show clear per-building stat readouts: Alliance Level, Vault Capacity, Research Speed, Diplomacy Slots, Relic Capacity, Build Speed, Defense Slots, and Common / Rare Output.

See who's defending

• The Fleet List now has an Alliance tab: see fellow members' fleets traveling to and stationed at your controlled system centers, so you always know who is helping to hold the line.

Auto-Renew trade offers

• Trade offers can now be set to Auto-Renew: once an offer is fulfilled — by a buyer or by the Trade Union — an identical offer is created automatically. If you don't have enough resources at renewal time, it's simply skipped.
• Auto-Renew is an Imperial Access feature.

Scout pirates from the scan panel

• Detected a pirate system on your scan? You can now dispatch a Scout fleet to it directly from the pirate scan panel.

More animated buildings

• New animated building sprites, including the Ascension Gate and Arctic-themed building skins (plus an updated Fusion Reactor), for players using the Animated Buildings option.

Improvements

• System-harvest research effects now display clearly — Refinery Cap, Max Cycles, and Cycle Time Reduction.
• One-click harvest now warns when you don't have enough Orbital Refineries to fully harvest a nebula zone's gas, and lets you send anyway.
• The daily system-share delivery fleet is now labeled Tribute Delivery.
• Coordinated-attack "fleet too weak" messages now show the tonnage you sent versus the minimum required.
• Clearer guidance that an alliance Headquarters can't be attacked — only Divisions can be conquered.
• Base relics now clearly indicate they can't be equipped directly; purchase a variant in the Bazaar to use them.
• New Hide Unusable Slots setting hides empty building slots on planets, moons, and alliance surfaces once nothing more can be built there.
• Exploration return notifications and mail now include the destination colony's coordinates, and fleet-return notifications read more naturally.
• Clearer messaging when a boost can't be applied to an alliance colony, and when a building is already at its maximum level.

Balance

• Territorial Expansion research now grants +5 systems per level (up from +1), so alliances can grow their territory limit much faster.

Bug Fixes

• Fixed combat defender-win resolution and corrected stun handling so partially stunned fleets resolve using full owned-ship counts.
• Fixed alliance vault donation issues.
• Fixed a fleet launch slowness (performance) issue.
• Improved FCS coordinated-attack alerts and resolved several system-conquering edge cases.
• Fixed Colony Relocate leaving an empty moon slot orbiting a vacated planet, and clarified the Colony Relocate description.

Announcement

• Lifetime Imperial Access is being retired after July 31. If you already own it, nothing changes — it stays yours for life with every benefit. After that date, Imperial Access will be available only through timed packages, unlocked with Imperial Credits earned in-game or Quantum Shards from the Store.
