yeah this happened in 1.02 also. I had a dessert planet with a wormhold right below it in my game. Had me totally confused as ther where the enemy ships were comming from for a bit
Also Agreed. This is by far one of the best Strategy games I've played in a very long time
Very Interesting; I can see some issues with strategic bottlenecking with so few phase lanes per planet per system. I think my concern would be massing hug fleets at the star is it seems to be the primary choke point. Also since each star system essentially has multiple "dead ends" or branches if you will, comming off the star, it would reason to me that players would specifically tailor their empire to place (or spam) non tactical structures at the edges of the system (the de
