Release notes:
http://arcengames.com/mediawiki/index.php?title=The_Last_Federation_Alpha_Release_Notes#Alpha_Version_.902Restart steam to force a quicker update if you like.
Just a couple more days, now! This version includes:
1. A slightly revised escape pod mechanic that works a lot more smoothly, courtesy of Misery.
2. The ability to raid federation members.
3. No longer being restricted from having informants on worlds at war.
4. All of the menu interfaces for the game have now been visually cleaned up, so if you see something then it's something I don't know about -- and please bring it up in that case.
5. A huge number of tweaks to the armada production, fighting, and so forth logic on the solar map, to make resolutions more sensible. They weren't horrible before, but they are definitely loads better now.
6. The "Attack Another Race" political deal now actually works properly.
7. The search for hydral tech missions are now both less trivial and no longer something you can spam.
Enjoy!
UPDATE: Now it's version .903, with a hotfix for the prior version nuking a lot of old saves. Sorry about that!
UPDATE: Now it's version .904, with a hotfix for an autocombat-breaking bug from 0.902.
