Sins of a Solar Empire:Rebellion V1.94

V1.94 Gameplay NPC, Rampant Militia, and Minor Faction ships will now upgrade their abilities as they gain experience (if they have abilities to upgrade). Pirates no longer stay in a fleet when they arrive at their target planet. This allows them to be more effective at raiding the enemy defenses. Only Pirate Rogues now place tradeships at the top of their target priorities. If there are enemy dps units/structures in the gravity well, every other pirate ship will engage those first before raiding tradeships. Changed Scrap For Parts ability to refund 60/75/90% of the targeted ships' build cost rather than give credits per fleet supply. Minor Factions now have occupy all resource asteroids for the default planet definitions. Fixed a bug in scuttling that caused the salvage percentage to be applied twice (e.g. normal salvaging now correctly refunds 30% instead of 9%). Fixed incorrect player stats being tallied for Minor Faction and Rampant Militia units (e.g. when they kill units they don't contribute to the owner player stats). Fixed incorrect player stats being tallied for structures (e.g. Minor Faction created structures shouldn't contribute to the owner player stats). Fixed partially built Minor Faction structures not being scuttled when the planet became unowned. The Minor Faction's constructors likewise now properly self-destruct in that situation as well. Fixed bug where structures created by a buff in the orbit of an Minor Faction planet would assume the Minor Faction's ownership index (e.g. ability created phase gates). Fixed bug where a player could own Minor Faction construction ships. Fixed bug where Minor Faction capital ships count towards your total labs as Vasari Loyalist. Fixed bug where the first Minor Faction lab you capture doesn't count towards your total. Fixed bug where the "Send Envoy" quest was being trivially completed. Fixed a bug where the wrong capitalship/frigate could be built by a Minor Faction if both the construction frigate and factory had previously been destroyed. Fixed ships physics from being disabled when they died. Fixed Occupation Victory win condition from potentially crashing and if not crashing, potentially not colonizing the planet. Fixed bug where icons weren't showing up around a planet on some maps (e.g. DogFight). Fixed bug where skybox and music transitions were incorrect. Fixed rare 'zoom to infinity' bug. Fixed a bug in the calculation of planet bombing damage that was causing it to be roughly twice as high as it should have been. Fixed resource extractors from not transferring after acquiring a minor faction planet. Fixed respawned minor faction ships from not assuming their minor faction status. Modding Added custom per-unit hyperspace effects. If a unit does not define them the player effects are used by default. Refer to Capital_PhaseBattleship.entity as an example of how to set custom effects up. Added GalaxyScenarioItemSpawnConditionType::PlanetHasAnyOwner. Fixed the bug where NoPlanetOwner conditions and its variations would fail due to template-based colonization and item creation being split into separate passes (since if the planet got colonized, it would now have an owner when the condition got re-evaluated in the item pass). Increased max exhaust trails to 5. Added block and warning if anyone attempts to exceed the max to avoid stomping on valid memory. Removed some asserts in buffs that aren't valid - depending on the buff chain and game state it is sometimes legitimate for first and last spawner to be null. Fixed incorrect assert assertic(target == NULL Misc Fixed a variety of string issues. Fixed LAA problems with shaders. Removed some duplicate entities, brushes, sounds, and strings. Removed some references to non-existent resources. Fixed achievement issues created by Minor Faction and Rampant Militia units. Fixed achievements not showing up in game at all under certain conditions. Fixed crash bug that was caused by the ship cost querying not robustly handling a playerIndex of -1. This can occur if the player is interacting with the ship construction action grid as they lose ownership of the planet. Fixed spawn all entities from crashing. Item templates now properly use the playerIndex parameter when creating structures instead of assuming it will be the planetOwner. Fixed building a structure not always using the correct player owner. Fixed crash when querying tooltip for abilities that used new atomics.
