It is time that the patch was released publically. The game has been virtually unplayable since the last patch broke movement orders several months ago.

How were movement orders broken? There was really only the combat retreat issue that I could think of.

When you select two (2) or more ships and try and move them to a different system, it clears the order and doesn't move them. It got fixed... oooh, back in 1.54, I think.

That is only if you don't push the order button/hotkey before looking at the next system. Using fleets avoids the issue as well. The game is still playable, just with a bit more care.

"2. Fixed - AI was not operating correctly."

Glad that's fixed. Single Player should be great now.

That's actually a reference to a fix for v1.55, which broke the AI.

I'm almost sorry for asking again, since the next patch seems to be really great... But I still can't play the game due to graphic errors. I had hoped for the 7.10 catalyst to fix my issues, but it didn't.

I detailed out the problem here and also mailed a report to Malfador. To follow up, as soon as there is any 'layer' of controls or images 'above' the main game screen, everything goes black, which makes adjusting research and designing ships in effect impossible.

Any chance that it was fixed? *crossed thumbs*
