The update on 13th June includes the following changes:

- Added specific designs for the following systems near to Sol, including binaries and trinaries: Alpha Centauri, Barnard's star, Wolf 359, Sirius, UV Ceti, Ross 154, Epsilon Eridani, EZ Aquarii, 61 Cygni, Procyon and Epsilon Indi.

- Added the vanilla Deneb start back into the game, but this automatically spawns Sol and the other 600 systems. Note that if playing a Commonwealth of Man, the United Federations of Earth is now called the United Federations of Terra Nova and appears in the Helios system.

- Fixed bug causing two Sols to appear in some circumstances. Two Sols can still appear, but only if you play the Deneb or Milky Way (especially as humans) starts and call your homeworld Sol. You will now see a Helios star in some starts, which corresponds to the second Sol that the game would occasionally spawn.

- Fixed bug in which Milky Way System start would cause Earth to have buildings but no pop. Earth will now be empty (unless the game put something there). Fixed a similar problem with some of the Star Trek systems.

- Trek Systems start now gets all the star systems in the Sol System start plus the seven unique Trek systems designed by Oouie.

- Complete restructuring of the code, resulting in 40% reduction in file size.

Corrected the relative position of Cygnus X-3

Today's update brings the total number of real star systems to 600 (increased from 554). This only applies to the 'Solar System' and 'Milky Way System' starts. The 'Trek Systems' start is unaffected for the moment.

I've established that I can safely go to at least 700 real star systems without crashing the game, so I will probably add more later. I'm taking requests for specific stars ...

Today's update allows players to start at a star system other than Sol. Select the 'Milky Way System' option to use it.
