Auto mining
Before, when mining ships finished extracting all the resources from an asteroid, they stayed idle until the player order them to move elsewhere, but now, they will look for nearby asteroids and will automatically mine them! This makes the game more dynamic and fluid. But if you prefer to micro manage your fleet, you can turn this feature off from the Settings.

Automatic help
When bases or ships without weapons (such as miner ships and exploration probes) are under attack, they will automatically ask for help from nearby, idle warships (fighters and battle cruisers) which will come and fight the attacking enemies, automatically.

Both features work with nearby asteroids and ships, so you will still need to look after your fleet.
We hope you enjoy these new features! We will continue to work on enhancements and bug fixes to offer the best gaming experience possible.
