A few minor problems

Hi there!

I just finished playing the new BETA as TEC on a medium random map and I have noticed a few minor issues that I thought I would post. I'd first like to say, however that I am greatly impressed with the BETA! I love the new textures and the new look of the interface! I easily adapted to the changes and think you deserve a round of applause! :CONGRAT: 

Ok, here are the few issues I found:

-When I colonize a planet/asteriod, I get the message saying I have found a artifact before I have even explored the planet. I still have to explore it to get the artifact and I assume the effect, but it tells me exactly what the artifact is and that I have aquired it the second I colonize.

-This may just be me, but I've noticed that damage seems to rise much slower than before and that it updates on the ship info hover-over pop-up interestingly slowly. If the damage system was altered and this was intentional, I'm not particularily fond of it, however I think I could adapt to it.

-Lastly, all of the other races I'm against have red as their race color which I assume is because they are my enemies, however I liked it better when each race had their own color even if they were currently my enemy.

Other than those few things, fantastic job and keep up the great work!

ad 1: known issue, there is a "artifact bug" thread.

ad 3: also known issue. not actually a bug, but a change in default settings. in the options menu there is a check box to change this, check out the interface tab.

not sure what you mean by 2. do you mean that when a ship is attacked and you keep hovering over its infoscreen and believe that its not updating as fast as the ship is taking damage? not sure, I kinda feel I saw something similar.

Ah, ok! Thanks for pointing those things out!

As for the damage, it just seems like it rises more slowly on the infocard than the speed at which it's getting hit. I know this was also true before the BETA, but now it seems to be updating even more slowly. It also seems like it takes longer to defeat things in general now, although I could be mistaken about that.
