Hello Everyone,
This is our second dev update (see [url="https://store.steampowered.com/news/app/3509420/view/516337874624316081"]update 01 here[/url]). We've been making very good progress over the last few months, implementing a ton of features.
These are some of the highlights:
Pressurized Truck
This is another of the several vehicles we will have in the game. The [b]Truck[/b] has more load capacity and range than the [url="https://clan.fastly.steamstatic.com/images//10221286/b6d9dc449426ed2e7d405d2654fe85a7d24f686f.png"]Rover[/url]. Colonists don't need to wear a space suit do drive it so running out of oxygen is not a concern.

[previewyoutube="wgHTSgSVX8w;full"][/previewyoutube]Hangar
This is the place where colonists can [b]store vehicles[/b] (and drones). It's an exterior structure, so it can be placed in strategic locations near resource storages and exterior work places for maximum efficiency.

New Character Models
We've finished the basic set of appearances for the main [b]4 specializations[/b]. We will make more variations in the future but this allows us to start working on the final animations.
Each character is generated by a random combination of gender, ethnicity, hair style, hair color, skin color and head gear. There are [b]thousands[/b] of possible appearances.

We've been working on other less flashy (or not finished) features as well:

[url="https://x.com/madrugaworks/status/1937140054788366739"]Dirt Roads[/url]: These will be the first basic type of road you can build.
Customizable UI: Like panels on the top part of the screen in [url="https://shared.fastly.steamstatic.com/store_item_assets/steam/apps/858810/ss_231b362ae6c31bc988adec0da2c12292785786a6.1920x1080.jpg?t=1743274328"]Dawn of Man[/url]

[url="https://bsky.app/profile/madrugaworks.bsky.social/post/3lz6ch6thpc2d"]Scan Mode[/url]: A way to track surface or underground resources. Similar to primal vision in Dawn of Man.
