Some things feel different to my games before. I read the 1.1 changelog and the thing I mean don`t seem to be mentioned.
My normal settings are Insane map, with normal stars and rare/rare plantes. Rare ressources, but nebulae, black holes and asteroids on normal. No crystals. No precursor`s suff. And rare pirates. Abundant minors. My custom race vs. the standard races.
Normally during peaceful expansion I get about 25 Planets. Today I got 8. But I allready had nearly 1/3 of the galaxy. I wiped out my Thalan neighbours who had 2 planets. And I`m about to fight the next main who has 8.
Also the whole game somehow feels slower. I set everything to very slow. But I did so before, and now it feels even slower. I don`t know what is causing this, but I like theese changes very much. I mean slow in turn-count, not turn-time. Maybe I just had a strange RNG, but this is exactly how I want my game to be.
