Sadly the other 4x game has overshadowed this.

Apparently patch 1.04a is done per the official forums. I do not know much about it as as do not have the Steam version.
I read that too, though it hasn't been released to the main branch on steam yet.  Dunno if it is on the beta branch.

Yeah...too many 4x coming out the same year.

Fixed the military training academy issue and added some nice features regarding fuel storage and tankers...don't see anything related to working on the AI fuel cheat, though.

Beta patch available on Steam
Sweet, they will be adding heroes.
Fixed the exploit that allowed to destroy factories after building orbital factories - uh didn't know this was an exploit, more of a feature :)  Wonder what this will do to my saves...

Well my saves seem to work fine.  The planets with orbitals and no factories are still producing.  I only used this on a few Earthlike planets and each has 1 orbital. 

So far so good with the dev support and their plans for the future.

Doesn't anyone else find that funny?!?

I believe this was the official patch release of what had been the beta patch. So if you have been playing with the beta, your saved games should be ok since the patches are similar. Of course, this could be total bs

I was on the main branch 1.03c, but switched to beta to get 1.04a.  My concern was that on Earthlikes, where I really wanted to max my farms/research, I would build like 6 factories, then an orbital, and max everything out.  Then, destroy 1 factory, build a few farms, destroy another, more farms + research, etc.  Finally I'm sitting at 1 orbital no factories which is a state you can't reach in 1.04a because you can't destroy those last 3 factories. 

Didn't seem to be an issue, though I only ran for a couple months, tried adding stuff to my build queue and checked production times.

Since the game has technology for fuel collection I've decided to suspend disbelief concerning the boneheads that love to roam around across my empire bombing my facilities or other nefarious activities. It does help having military ships or bases positioned at key points where enemy ships will travel through.
