New Astronaut models
We've updated the Astronauts with a more modern look and with more real proportions, a bit more like the characters in Dawn of Man. Models can be tinted with various colors for the different specializations.
We've posted more details about this on social media if you are interested:

Vehicles
We have various vehicles in the game. They allow colonists to carry more resources and reach locations further from the base. You can also build roads, which make vehicles a lot faster. Colonists automatically pick up vehicles when needed, but you can also manually tell them to do so, and tell them where to drive the vehicle. We are also working on specialized mining and tanker vehicles.

Nuclear Power
We have the complete nuclear power mechanics in the game. - There is a Nuclear Reactor structure, that needs to be fed Nuclear Fuel. - They need to be monitored from the Nuclear Console in the Control Center (like Telescopes in PB1). - They produce Nuclear Waste, that has to be taken to the Nuclear Dump. - The Landing Ship will have a nuclear reactor inside, which will provide initial power for the colony. - We will still have Solar Panels and Wind Turbines, nuclear power will be an alternative that will work well in certain situations. See the Nuclear Reactor (available in 3 sizes) and Nuclear Dump:
