Just a quick update on progress today.
We've been hard at work, implementing a new adaptive road system, which automatically bridges over water, creates gates through walls and more.
We're also updating how mining works in the game. Rocks now deplete over time, both as a resource, and visually. This has a number of effects. It forces expansion and exploration to find new sources and types of rock. It also means areas covered by rock in the early game, can be built upon after substantial mining.
We'll have a full dev-blog about both the road system, and in-game mining over the coming weeks. Stay tuned!
