Stellaris 4.0.14 Patch​

• Colony Auto-designation now better takes Urban districts into account for flipping to the various Urban-related designations. (We still recommend picking the one you want though. This was mostly intended for the AI)
  
• Gestalt empires can now build trade modules on starbases
