Version 0.3.1

Added

• The Earth Charter now ends with a final step: repay your founding debt to win full independence.
• Future delivery contracts show the premium they pay over the market price, and always offer a contract for every goods tier you can produce.
• Surveyed regions show their resource estimate on the solar-system map, and the relic panel gains a Codex shortcut.

Changed

• Redesigned event banner under the top bar: a solid, colour-coded bar with a progress meter that also warns you about incoming deadlines (a tribute due soon, a delivery contract closing).
• Bottom-bar alerts now point to the exact tab that needs you.
• Solar-system region panels are all one uniform width.
• Placing a building deselects the tool afterward (hold Shift to keep placing); low-power buildings are now clearly flagged.

Fixed

• You can now plan freighter routes while paused.
• Alien relics in other regions are reachable now, and older saves automatically re-place a relic that was stranded out of range.
• Station cores no longer overlap large planets (Saturn), and you can build in regions where asteroids crowd the core's landing pads (Neptune).
• The Warp Coil recipe unlocks properly once you decode the precursor gate tech.
• The demolish confirmation window is centred.
• A batch of backlog bugs fixed.

Balance

• Gentler building upkeep with a grace period before spare-part shortages bite, slower colonist leveling, and tribute deadlines that lengthen as the demands get harder.
