    Yep same problem here.
    It looks like the spot are taking in consideration their size.

    Before the 3 spots where really close in triangle often, now it is more spaced.

    The spacing in between players is definitely smaller now.

    On another note I REALLY like the fact that selection boxes are now using a priority system like in supcom. No more random selection of engineers together with fighting units.

    Same here, my commander started close enough to give the other commander a hug.... It did not end well.

    Awesome, this is very nice.

    Also at some point they fixed selecting through the planet and double clicking doesn't select across the whole planet. Guess I missed those fixes, but they are awesome.

    Are sea structures supposed to be partially submerged now? Or was I just building only in shallow water all this time?

    I didn't extensively test it but I built some units, went on the other side and drew a selection box over the whole planet. It didn't select anything so I'm guessing it's fixed.

    Does this mean that once you have sighted them, they stay?

    Yup, this was fixed.

    Currently, I try and mostly focus on new features, or if something really big got fixed that alters gameplay, mention it. Don't want to call out every bug that go fixed til we have a bit fewer bugs. :)

    Bumping this. I noticed that floating power plants and floating mass extractors were not, in fact, floating anymore.

    The circles appear correct for me, maybe it's related to the untextured planet bug. Cus that pic look like its not textured.

    The new strategic icons are way too small on my 30" monitor, I need a magnifying glass to see them :(

    edit: Nvm actually it was the fact my color was black that made it impossible. Playing as red now and I can see them fine. An option to resize would still be nice though

    I think F5 and F6 resize the start icons now. And if you look at the energy storage it has a slightly different icon style from the others which the next update will probably move to.
