Discovery 4.87: Conquest - Update 5

Ladies and gentlemen, the holidays season is upon us, and little elves of the dev team have been working hard to get this update ready for you in time. Your copy of Discovery should automatically update itself the next time you run the game. Even though at the first glance update 5 change log might seem rather lighter than the past couple of updates, the technical work done for this update is comparable to the previous ones, and a few of the rather time consuming features on 4.87 to-do list are finally ready and implemented in this update.

After a long wait, the couple of bugs preventing player owned bases from functioning properly are also fixed and the bases will be turned back on in a week or two. An advance notice will be posted in this section to let the base owners know once the exact date is decided, as there are still a couple of adjustments pending and need to be made server-side before POBs can be turned back on.
