Master of Orion III's software upgrade boosts enemy AI and other in-game mechanics for an enhanced gaming experience.
Another significant fix in this update is the removal of the ability to control bombardment in multiplayer after ceding or watching space combat. This functionality caused hang conditions and instability that were problematic for players. This fix is expected to enhance the overall stability of multiplayer gameplay in Master of Orion III.
Additionally, the update fixes some bugs that caused the game to crash under certain conditions. For example, there was a bug where opening the military build queue and then the Shipyards screen on top of it could cause the game to crash if a turn was processed. The update fixes this issue, as well as a similar bug on the ship design screen.
Moreover, the update addresses some issues on the Forces tab where the colony and outpost buttons could cause a crash if there were no planets in the system. The game would also crash if one of the tabs was open on the ship design screen, and then the fleets tab was opened and the player used the escape key to exit.
It's important to note that this updater brings all previous versions of Master of Orion III to the latest version 1.2.5. However, it's worth pointing out that saved games created using version 1.1 or earlier will no longer function after applying this update. Saved games created using version 1.2 or higher, on the other hand, will work correctly.
Overall, the Master of Orion III Updater 1.25 addresses some significant bugs and crashes, which is undoubtedly good news for fans of this popular strategy game. Players who want to enhance their gaming experience and enjoy improved stability should consider downloading and installing the latest update.
