Oh my goodness yes. I think that was part of the Star Kings patch?
As with AOW3, Triumph has done an absolutely fantastic job with balance, variety, and QoL post-release. The Planetfall economy after the big revamp is so much better it’s like a different game.
I am loving these game diaries, Tom. Enough to have reinstalled Planetfall this morning in anticipation of playing when I got home from work (I played a bit at release, but bounced off). Then I fired up the tutorial, got intimidated, and decided I should play some more of my Phoenix Point campaign.
