2017.7 release notes

By Hades' Star

Modules

  • New Trade module: Entrust (teleports a transport ship cargo to another transport ship)
  • New Trade module: Offload (while active, all the transport's shipments will be delivered at a lower rate when the ship arrives at a Trade Station)
  • New Mining module: Genesis (creates new asteroids in the current sector)
  • New and existing Transport ships level 3 and higher will get an extra Trade module slot
  • Destiny: Activating ship is now disabled right after the teleport (8 hours in White Star, 10 seconds elsewhere). Blast radius now constant on all levels. Damage reduced on level2+
  • Unity: Damage increase per additional player reduced on all levels
  • Barrage: Increased base damage and damage per additional enemy on all levels. Max damage is now capped at the equivalent of having 5 additional enemy ships in the sector.
  • It is now possible to uninstall non-weapon modules from any ship, to help with Hydrogen usage


White Stars

  • White star scanner has opt-out toggle to better control who participates in the next White Star search
  • Actual Participants list will show on the White Star scanner while a White Star search is underway
  • Corporation leaderboards can now also be sorted by Relics. All leaderboards now show the 200 top entries.
  • Fixed an issue where relics loaded on a Transport ship docked at the returning gate would not count towards the outcome of the match
  • Cooldown to jump ship back to White Star after returning early is increased to 2 hours
  • Offline report now mentions ships lost in Red or White stars while the player was offline
  • Fixed issues with White Star replays and past time machine (note that old replays are always invalidated after each major update and on some maintenances)

Other improvements

  • Space stations can now be moved very small distances (area around the station being moved is no longer disallowed)
  • Transport Autopilot can now only be activated on a Yellow Star
  • Removed ability to create new shipments using Crystals
  • Inbox dialog: Newer entries now appear on top of the list
  • Added support for the Japanese language

Dark Nebula upgrade guide

By Hades' Star
Hades' Star: DARK NEBULA is the next update to Hades' Star. It will release later this year, completely replacing the current live version of Hades' Star. Your existing Hades' Star account will be transferred over to DARK NEBULA. Depending who you ask, DARK NEBULA is an identical clone of Hades' Star with slightly different graphics, a radically different game, or somewhere in between. All these viewpoints, coming from players who have experienced the original game with different patterns and over different timeframes, are correct.  If you are worried that things have changed too much, or the changes you saw or heard about in the Early Access builds are too overwhelming, this post is a good place to get started with Dark Nebula when it releases. Shipments and Yellow Star Economy Dark Nebula redesigns the shipment progression using the following principles:  1.
