Greetings Lords of Rigel. This week has had a number of hotfixes and some performance optimizations. These have ranged from UI fixes for non 16:9 or 21:9 resolutions to stability fixes. This week has also brought some quality of life improvements for the bombardment menu where "drop all" and bombard stop when a planet's population has been depleted, audio adjustments based on feedback to add more variation to weapon impact effects, and some adjustments to tactical tooltips. These adjustments and fixes are all in the Release 1.15 changelog.

Meaningful community feedback has helped improve the game since release, and a wide range of community feature requests ranging from simple map mode to alternative game options have been added. Based on your feedback the plan for the next major patch in 2026 is to add an autopause feature for tactical with a timer for players who want a more turn based experience.

Additionally, the game guide goes in depth on mechanics and what differs from other space strategy games:
