Hi, and welcome to Ant Queen 3D
I have been away for some time and this is a preview of the upcoming patch
The patch will go live on the 3 of august
There will be a master reset, If you don't want the new features and keep your game progress you can simply not update the game.
NEW STUFF
The underground colony can be dug on many levels. This new feature has a lot of impact in the game play and it required a lot of changes regarding the code, the path finding and the saving of the players data. it’s looks really good, but on the down side a full reset of the game is required sorry.
New achievements for unlocking the Colors of ants you can produce
Red ants and yellow ants each have one stat boosted. Respectively attack and speed. Blue spec has more health and stores more food. Green ant have a minor boost on all stats
The nuptial flight is the action that unlocks the ant Colors. 5 - 15 - 30 - 50.
Patrol zones can have soldiers and/or super soldiers assigned. In the situation that you have 3 Soldiers and you assigned 3 Soldiers to a singe patrol zone, if you chose to assign a soldier to an other patrol zone, automatically a soldier is removed from the first patrol zone and added to the new chosen zone.
Units won't try to get the same food part, dirt block or egg
New alert button appear when you are under attack. Clicking it will teleport you to the area
Physiogastey System for the egg spawning. This was requested from enough players to be implemented in the game. In nature, a queen cannot simply put eggs all the time, she basically build reserves of «eggs» that she will later spawn. So far, the queen will slowly build a physiogastry level and will give player an X number of ants she can spawn. If you have more than 0 as the physiogastry level, you can click on the spawn unit icons. The new egg will be added in a queue and after some time, the egg will be spawn.

The status of the food source the player set iare saved and loaded.
The soldiers or super soldiers you assign to the patrol zones are saved and loaded
