This update is mostly focused on QoL improvements, including highly requested builder features like planning building placement. You can press the middle mouse button to plan a building and then place the real one on top. Press the delete key to remove all planned. Also, some bal
It feels like now the difficulty is right, at least for the first 2 difficulties to learn the game, but the curve to the Captain is too steep. Also, the way mortars work compared to plasma towers does not scale well with the amount of enemies. In this update, I changed the diffic

Armour on T4 walls was planned as a strong late-game upgrade, but ended up being too accessible and made the player immune to small enemies too easily. This strategy is too strong and does not require any planning or artifacts. Now there will only be throns on T4 wall. Generator
Many players found out that difficulty difference between Officer and Captain is too high. This was reworked. Star lord difficulty is now available in the demo and Captain is now a little easier. Also Deathrains (flying Mortars) felt a little underwhelming and did not achieve wha
