The much meatier ‘Heinlein’ 1.3 patch for Stellaris is still upcoming, but in the mean time Paradox have pushed out another hotfix for some lingering issues. Your game should automatically update to version 1.2.5 today. Give Steam a restart if it hasn’t done so yet.
This smaller patch primarily addresses some specific issues with the AI. New cases of the AI not ending a war at 100% war-score, and spamming open/closed border demands, are said to be sorted out. Players should also no longer see sector AI building just one lone research type.
In addition, Paradox say they’ve found and fixed a couple more examples of Stellaris crashing to desktop. Here’s the full changelog for 1.2.5.
