Hi all, Jamor here. I'm happy to report that after a restful summer vacation, the team is back and at full strength. In addition to working on the new content @Wiz has been hinting at, we've continued our post launch support of our last release, Distant Stars. After spending the summer in beta without introducing any drastic new issues, I'm making 2.1.2 the official live version now.

*Aug 16 update: we've added some necessary fixes. The version number will not change but the checksum will now be 5bcb. This should fix saves from previous versions where the end game crisis was not expanding as well.

New additions:

* Fixed end game crisis not expanding
* Modding: "fire once" events no longer report an error if there's an attempt to fire them multiple times (prevents error log spam)


#################################################################
######################### VERSION 2.1.2 ###########################

* Added the Kuiper Belt to the Sol system
* Added several new event pictures
* Ctrl-F9 now also hides system lines and navigation arrows
* It is now possible to rename the currently selected faction in faction view by clicking its name

###################
# Balance
###################

* Re-enabled pre-sapient discovery Anomalies for the AI
* Existing Horde fleets are now removed upon Great Khan's death and replaced by a fixed number of replacements
* AI empires are now more likely to find L-Cluster insights after 100 years have passed
* Increased levels of precursor anomalies across the board
* Balanced anomaly levels according to QA and player feedback
* Marauder empires are less likely to spawn close to an empire's starting system
* Rogue Servitors & Assimilators can now once again pick World Shaper perk
* Reduced frequency of terraforming candidates by about 50%
* Reduced min distance at which Fallen Empires can spawn from other empires
*Fixed some fallen empire tasks being able to target other fallen empires

###################
# UI
###################

* Only ships that are docked in a starbase with upkeep reduction will now show as having a green orbit icon on the outliner, other ships in orbit around something but not receiving an upkeep reduction will show as yellow

###################
# Modding
###################

* It is now possible to set anomalies as should_ai_and_humans_use = yes which will allow them to be used by both AI and human empires (overrides should_ai_use)
* Added on_added_pop on action for when a pop is added to a planet

###################
# Bugfixes
###################
* Numerous OOS fixes to improve multiplayer stability
* Fixed issue where acquiring an L-Gate and the L-Gate activation tech out of order would cause the L-Gate special project to fail to appear
* Names for country designs are not duplicated anymore
* Marauder raiding fleets are now always deleted a year after they start to withdraw to prevent rare situations where they get stuck
* Added missing localization for Great Khan leader titles
* Fixed template manager displaying wrong military power
* Fixed event trigger preventing Rudimentary Robots chain from continuing once you colonize their planet
* Fixed Colossus Tech being reverse-engineerable from debris
* Federation requests between two empires belonging to the same species class should now present correct localisation
* Fixed Curator cost checks to avoid truncation problems
* The AI no longer considers fleets that are running away as support in their current endeavour
* Fixed the AI thinking unreachable systems are the closest systems
* Fixed Cloud Lightning being hidden and unavailable as a component

* Fixed the bug where ships were losing health while merging
* Fixed Pacifist Defensive Wars Only demand to trigger properly
* Fixed issues with upgrading designs twice in the Template Manager
* Fixed issue where ship designer would not show the difference after researching new tech
* Fixed issue where players could change components on auto-generated designs
* Auto-upgrade is now considered as an update and can be saved
* Strategic Resources generated via events will now trigger the Strategic Resource discovery message
* It is no longer possible to construct event ships from starbases
* L-Cluster strategic resources will no longer appear on terraformed planets or Ring Worlds
* Fixed nonsensical requirement to have a free Leader slot in order to buy L-Gate Insight from the Curators
* Event text for opening the L-Cluster is now correct if only one L-Gate exists in the galaxy
* Fixed typo in Great Khan dialogue
* Limbobots can no longer be used to colonize worlds
* Limbo can only trigger once per game globally
* Fixed errors in Vechtar Zavonia event chain outcome
* Fixed on_entering_system event not being fired in your own systems. This fixes bugs like the shrines to the old gods not being completable
* Fixed non-sapient robots getting the wrong species rights in a Machine Empire
* Fixed certain opinion modifiers from distant stars events not going away over time
* Fixed defense platform cost not being correctly calculated
* Fixed instances of fleets getting stuck
* Fleets that cannot have their leader assigned or removed will now show this in the interface
* Resolved an error where Fanatic Purifier style empires could get an alien scientist from an anomaly
* Tweaked War in Heaven to generally have more AI empires picking sides among the Awakened Empires rather than staying neutral

Save file compatibility between 2.1.1 and 2.1.2 *should* be fine, but just in case, I've left 2.1.1 as a rollback version:

Steam library -> Right click on Stellaris -> Properties -> Betas tab -> choose the version you want

We're not done with Distant Stars just yet...stand by for announcements about more things to come in the near future.
