Cultures of the Belt v0.12.0 — ARIA Learns You

ARIA has always been your advisor in the Belt. Now she pays attention. v0.12.0 introduces Curiosity Shaping — ARIA tracks which parts of the simulation fascinate you most across five domains: anomalies, efficiency, expansion, diplomacy, and exploration. Her personality adapts to match. If you spend your time optimizing production chains, she becomes your Logistics Analyst. If you chase every strange signal, she becomes your Anomaly Specialist.

She’ll reference this in her morning reports, weaving domain-flavored insights into her briefings. And occasionally, when the pattern is strong enough, she’ll notice what she’s doing — a small moment of self-awareness from an AI character who is, after all, an AI.
