After several Steam restarts, half a dozen cache verifications, and waiting for eight hours, my game still hasn't updated.  Either that, or the version number on the main screen hasn't been updated.

EDIT: My Macbook updated, so maybe my PC will catch up eventually.
I was able to update using the in-game updater (even though I'm using Steam).  There was a button on the title screen.

Seems like the performance has gone down a little with this patch. Super FF was previously pretty laggy anyway, but in the game I was finishing off last night it was really extremely freezing-the-game-for-multiple-seconds laggy. And then it would continue to be laggy after the dispatch mission was finished, while at the solar system screen with the game on pause. The lag wouldn't stop until I unpaused it, at which point I could repause it and it would still be fine. Not sure what's up with that...

This is on an i5-4570 so presumably no slouch when it comes to crunching some numbers. What's dragging it down so much? Can some of these numbers maybe be rounded off to the nearest million to make the math a little smoother? I'm guessing probably not, but it just seems like it's dragging an awful lot.

Hey the decision on the stealing technology is a bad one. When I tried to steal tech, my relation with them went down by ten... everyone else's went down by like -30? That is way too much.

No worries, the problem has already been addressed in the next patch:

Quote from: 1.003 patch notes
* When you steal the tech of a race, they are now upset by 20 instead of 10.
** However, other races are only upset by 12 instead of 24.
**Additionally, races at war with the race you are stealing from no longer care at all.
**Thanks to BobTheJanitor for suggesting.
