I hate to ask the obvious question but, when will the 1.20-1.21 patch be released ?

I have 2 issues referencing Richard's post. Item 19 states the removal of Tech 10 for ships since it is empty. I for one use that tech level..I created an entire series of ships for all the races that use Tech level 10. I really don't see a reason to take it out, just provides another option for modders.

The second issue is about a map editor. I know there has been discussion about having one on past Posts. I had been hoping it was to be availabe on this next patch. Any idea if and when this can be expected?

Well if you want that tech level add it back in

As a modder you can easily do that, they might as well remove things that a unmodified Version of the game doesn't use.

Thank you, Aaron.

I think mods will now be much easier to package, install and manage thanks to change #31 listed under v1.20. Can't wait.

Yes, the mod directory is great. Thanks for the info Richard.

Mods directory , improved use of AI fleets (if it works) and continous bug elimination, all this is good news. However, I am still missing further AI improvements, especially making the computer opponents finally follow through on their attacks (which may be associated with the AI's retrofit/scrap franzy). Hope this will be addressed before the patcj comes out.
