An update to the 1.6 Beta, currently under public testing on the unstable branch, is now up. These are the changes.
[h3]Version 1.6 Beta 2[/h3]
[list]
[*] Added a sound to the weapon slot re-order feature in the ship design screen.
[*] Tribute requests now show how much money is requested directly in the main diplomacy dialog message, and not only in the diplomatic message tooltip.
[*] Fixed a bug in the new Galactic Council frequency option, where sometimes the value used was not the correct one. Now, the frequency of the galactic council will always be according to the option defined by the player.
[*] Fixed an issue that was causing closed wormhole lines to not change brightness upon player request. Now all wormhole lines change brightness via the new feature introduced by 1.6 Beta.
[*] Fixed an issue that was causing an unknown empire to be revealed by inspecting an outpost or colony built in the system view without formal contact had been made with that empire.
[*] Fixed an issue that was causing the supply range to not update immediately after stealing a logistics tech via espionage.
[*] Fixed an issue in the 'Overlap panel', shown when multiple fleets are in the same space, where sometimes an AI fleet would be described as travelling to an "unexplored system", when that system was already known by the player, so the name of the system should be shown instead.
[*] Fixed an issue that was causing peace treaties to not be displayed in the diplomacy dialog screen. Peace treaties are now displayed and tell the player how many turns remain until the peace treaty remains in effect.
[*] Fixed an issue that was causing orbital stations to not refresh immediately in the overview panel after obtaining a tech for orbital station construction, via technology exchange. Now, the overview panel refreshes immediately.

[h5]Evolving Empires[/h5]
[list]
[*] Fixed an issue in the minor civilization tooltip which would reveal the name of an unknown empire that had fully surveyed them, without formal contact had been established with that empire.

I remind that the 1.6 Beta update is not yet available for everyone. To play the '1.6 Beta 2' version you need to opt in for Steam's unstable branch. On the Steam client go to Games -> View Games Library -> Right-Click on Interstellar Space: Genesis -> Choose Betas tab -> Select the "unstable" Beta branch. The game shall start updating to 1.6 Beta 2.
