Full Changelog

Added

• [p]Increased the available building area on the surface map. [/p][/*]
• [p]Added a construction grid that highlights areas unavailable for building. [/p][/*]
• [p]Improved drone movement on the surface: drones now have more space to navigate and move properly following the surface. [/p][/*]
• [p]Drones 2.0: improved drone task distribution and how they handle priorities. Most drones will focus on high-priority and super-priority tasks, while the remaining 20–40% are distributed among lower-priority tasks. [/p][/*]
• [p]Hauler drones now prioritize heavier loads containing 5 or more resources. [/p][/*]
• [p]Introduced the Super-Priority system - a fourth priority level that temporarily boosts selected modules to the highest priority for a set time. [/p][/*]
• [p]Added priority settings for living quarters in priority mode. [/p][/*]
• [p]Added a resource counter required for room construction (accessible by clicking on the room hologram). [/p][/*]
• [p]Multi-Storage 2.0: you can now select specific resources to store and distribute the total capacity of the multi-resource storage between them in any ratio. [/p][/*]
• [p]Added research for Multi-Storage that enables automatic resource supply for contracts and expeditions. Once connected to certain modules, it will automatically open outputs and provide the exact amount of resources required. [/p][/*]
• [p]Added deep chemical slag processing technology, allowing slag to be recycled into oxides or rare-earth minerals. [/p][/*]
• [p]Added an overflow button for conveyor inputs and outputs, allowing resources to bypass storage. [/p][/*]
• [p]Capsules can now land at the Flight Control Center and Landing Platform. [/p][/*]
• [p]Added auto-purchase in the Flight Control Center. [/p][/*]
• [p]Added a Transport menu with a full list of the player's vehicles and detailed information. [/p][/*]
• [p]Added an Industrial Kitchen that automates food production using conveyors. [/p][/*]
• [p]Continued storyline: the "New Horizons" quest, introducing building and scaling outpost, and gas extraction. [/p][/*]
• [p]Added the "Mutually Beneficial Cooperation" quest, introducing one of the factions (previously unavailable in the contracts list). [/p][/*]
• [p]Added dynamic images to wall-mounted TV screens. [/p][/*]
• [p]Outpost resource value is now included in total capitalization. [/p][/*]
• [p]Added descriptions for the Launch Station, Gas Pipe Supports, training equipment, Transport Cannon, and tables. [/p][/*]
• [p]Added reputation rewards in the Aurora quest. [/p][/*]
• [p]Added a tooltip for the colonist icon on the orbital map. [/p][/*]
• [p]Added an "on outposts" section to the colonist tooltip. [/p][/*]
• [p]Added internal storage display in the Flight Control Center, Expedition Center, and Launch Station. [/p][/*]
• [p]Added tutorials for Anomaly Probes and the Anomaly Scanner. [/p][/*]
• [p]Added research upgrades for the Biogenerator and Thermonuclear Generator to reduce organic and energy cell consumption. [/p][/*]
• [p]Added research upgrades for the Gas Extractor and Single Regolith Refinery. [/p][/*]
• [p]Added a new high-capacity storage module. [/p][/*]
• [p]Added an "Effects" section in vehicle upgrade tooltips. [/p][/*]
