1. It's actually been changed, in particular the phase jump starting animations, they're kind of like "doors" opening, the rest of the effect is touched up a bit well. They were right to keep the Advent phase effects close to the original, it fits them.

2. Notifications do seem finicky, sometimes they play, others they don't.

3. Did you have vision of those planets?

Yes, it is. I wonder though, how will it be colored with the phase destabilisation effect. I mean, if Advent forces are leaving gravity well containing enemy starbase, the blue color of their phase jump vortex is turned to red/orange. For Vasari, it is red/orange by default already....
