This release has wormholes between star systems in the same galaxy, and between those in different galaxies. A number of unrelated minor bugs were fixed.
Support for spiral, globular cluster, and elliptical galaxies was added. A new
UI for choosing game scale was implemented. It is no longer necessary to
update classpath to load data files. Other bug-fixes were made.
New Resource Groups (which are arbitrary collections of objects, such as ships, factories, etc.), and a significant reworking of internal architecture to support the resource groups.
