The exciting new thing about this release is dimensional world and fleet rendering. Look for these options under "World color" and "Fleet color", in the Map menu. This new mode does absolutely nothing for you, gameplay-wise, but isn't it pretty!
DavidVersion 0.98.6:
* New "Dimensional" options for world and fleet color.
* New options for customizing background and dimensional images in
Game Preferences panel. Support for dark background images.
