- Small fixes such as disabling machine empire buildings (until 2.2).
- Adjusted policy/ethic window to be larger while still suiting 1366x768 res.

- Budget expenses were rebalanced to be relative to GDP instead of population. This means inadequate services will lower standard of living instead of locking the state into a deficit, providing services they can't cut further.

- Infrastructure no longer adds to debt, but is charged gradually via the infrastructure budget expense until the projects are paid for (the rate is 0.83% per month of pooled outstanding project costs).

- Fixed a population growth bug where planet growth sped up after 50 billion population.
- Boosted starting industry supply to be balanced with demand.
- Added a science policy that is the overall modifier of the effective research speed boost of science assets.
- Hid some unintentionally constructable buildings.
- Lowered budget expenses overall a little now that higher tax rates are generally not sustainable (they don't leave industry with enough wealth to expand).

- Added science system.
- Tweaked/fixed resource and defence sector growth.
- Added tons of tooltips.
- Fixed a typo that prevent the proper tax rate vs industrial growth relationship. Now high taxes kill industrial growth.
- Added approval hit to not lowering taxes when prompted.
- Ships using mod menu now spawn at capital.
- Ship costs doubled using the mod order system (still costs credits rather than minerals).
- A number of techs, traits and traditions now affect infrastructure condition decay (minimise it).
- Various other small changes and fixes.

Main additions were adding the infrastructure system and rebalancing industrial growth.

- Added destroyer, cruiser and battleship non-shipyard spawns (prev upload only included corvettes).
