NOTE: Saved games from previous versions are not compatible with this version.

This update adds a new planetary market advancement towards the end of the colonization era which unlocks the ability to trade resources. Once unlocked, food and minerals may be bought and sold through the economy panel, providing new strategies on the way to economic superiority. Prices fluctuate with time and are affected by ongoing market trading so you'll have to time your purchases well to get the most out of it.

It also adds city-specific tax rates to allow more control over growth migration, new music, and several fixes, balance changes and usability improvements.

Added:
* Added market (resource trading) system accessible through the economy panel.
* Added city tax rate.
* Added growth produceable.
* Added 8 new music tracks.
* Added ability to reorder the production queue by holding the left mouse button and dragging the production item up or down, or using the mouse wheel to scroll up or down.

* Added several new feature images.
* Added high-dpi support, fixing retina display issues.
* Added RefreshRate config setting.
* Added FocusedTickrateLimit, UnfocusedTickrateLimit and MinimizedTickrateLimit config settings.
* VerticalSynchronization config setting can now be -1 for adaptive vsync (newer graphics cards only).

Changed:
* Wealth now produces 2 credits per production instead of 4.
* Reduced Golden Age to +8 morale for 12 turns from +16 morale for 10 turns.
* Reduced buyout and sell modifiers from 25% to 12.5%, refitting is unaffected.
* Field Training now deals 10% health damage to units ranked up.
* AI now utilizes Field Training.
* AI now deploys Cloning Centers.
* Increased former work duration from 3 to 4 turns.
* Reduced Great Planetary Survey from -33% to -25% former work duration.
* Changed Terra Salvum modifier from +2 habitat to +25% habitat.
* Changed Noxium Corporation modifier from -2 habitat to -25% habitat.
* Changed Noxium Corporation -25% purchase cost to 25% better prices to include both buying and selling.
* Changed world sizes from 24x24, 32x32, 40x40, 48x48, 56x56 to 24x24, 32x32, 44x44, 60x60, 80x80.
* City names are now limited to 64 characters.
* Clarified global growth tip.
* Minor territory hint tweaks.
* Minimizing now mutes music, ambient and cinematic audio.
* Increased network timeout from 20 seconds to 60 seconds.
* Improved audio playback when under stress.
* Improved error messages.
* Updated some Windows backend libraries.
* Tweaked language.

Fixed:

* Fixed potential crash.

* Fixed turning vertical synchronization on not working before game restart.

Thanks for the continued work on this game, hope to see more development as time goes on. I'll try these tweaks out and see how they shake out.

Ok, I seem to be a little slow. I have searched the product page, support area and the members area with no luck in finding the version 1.1.2. Could use a little guidance please.

Hmmm never mind, I see that after launching there is an automatic updater. As mentioned in the previous post, a little slow.

Looking forward to the game!
