Blind Mind Studios now offers a new patch for Star Ruler, updating the space-based strategy game to version 1.0.8.2. The patch is mirrored on Gamer's Hell. The change log outlines what the patch does, and this follows.

[Fixed] Taking over planets from AIs would sometimes prevent the planet from importing a particular resource.
[Fixed] Deleting a savegame deleted the wrong entry in the list.
[Fixed] Opening the options menu twice at the same time from the escape menu would crash the game.
[Fixed] Attractors did not function.
[Fixed] Dry Docks building other orbiting objects now no longer teleport some of those to close orbit around the sun.
[Fixed] You couldn't access a mod's effects in the particle editor.
[Fixed] Loading a game for multiplayer would allow clients to join the empire the host was controlling.
[Fixed] Effector data mismatch error could occur when loading saves with accented characters in blueprint names.
[Fixed] Jump Drives would sometimes retain orders in their previous system after jumping, causing them to fly back.
[Fixed] AIs would propose treaties involving goods and luxuries to empires with the "Eusocial Society" trait.
[Changed] AIs in the tutorial will no longer declare war on the player themselves.

[Changed] Explicitly ordering tools to fire now works when the ship is on 'Hold Fire' stance.
[Changed] Boarding Parties can be explicitly fired from the right click menu, letting you set 'Hold Fire' and board without destroying the other ship.
