OK, in order to fulfill my civic, gamer and/or forum duty, I am listing problems I have experienced so far in playing with the new v1.5.0.2(beta) patch.

I don't know if some of these problems have cropped up because I just applied patches V1.5.0.2(beta) over patch v1.5.0.1(final) over patch v1.5.0.1(beta) and not over a reinstalled vanella version.

1. I am getting duplicate entries for components in the design screen (ie. 2 entries for concussion missiles, ion cannons, etc.) but not all items. I don't know if one of the entries would be an improved version of the same item due to research.

2. a race (Ixudeen Ascendancy) keeps sending me in a diplomatic screen about some unique information and asks if I want details. This screen looks like the sentence should have contained additional wording but the program didn't retrieve it. Upon clicking to confirm there is no specific information or details.

3. A unit automatically repositioned itself into the top left or right corner of the map. The sequence of commands which possibly caused this was:
(a) Clicked on capital ship.
(b) Assigned it to a single new fleet by itself.
(c) Went to the fleet screen containing that unit to give it orders.
(d) Tried to get it to attack a bandit base which did not take or instituted a move command to a nearby system.
(e) Repeat last step to correct when repositioning occurred.
This occurred twice at different times, the first to the upper left and the second to the upper right.

Overall the patch is very stable. I would say I logged more than 30 hours playing so far. I experience 1 exception notification which allowed me to continue the game. There was no crashes to desktop.

If you need any additional info, let me know.

1: known issue and fixed in next release.

2: post a screenshot.

3: Not sure what's going on there, maybe a savegame should be posted on the ftp so the devs can have a look at it.

I have attached a screenshot of the diplomatic screen in question. This is the 2nd screen which pops up after you confirm you want the information. The first screen has the wording "Our research has uncovered the location of important historical items. Would you like to know more?" As you can see there seems to be wording missing on this screen.
