Dev Diary #306 - Habitat Experiments:

There are numerous issues with Habitats as they're currently implemented, so the devs have been trying out a few different things with them to find something that works better.  Having just one "Central Complex" strikes me as a good idea; fingers crossed it pans out.

3.9 "Caelum" update releases tomorrow: 


https://forum.paradoxplaza.com/forum/developer-diary/stellaris-dev-diary-312-3-9-caelum-patch-notes-and-ask-us-anything.1598278/

Highlights include a major rework to Habitats and jobs that produce trade value (clerks, merchants, etc.).  The Plantoids, Humanoids, and Lithoid species packs are also getting significant buffs/additions. 


On a related note, today is the last day to get those older species pack DLC's at their original lower price before they're bumped up to the same price as the newer ones ($9.99).
