This week brings another station to the game. This station is called "Core." It features a singularity engine at the center of the station. It is a medium-population station. The Christmas event has started to bring both joy and chaos to this holiday season. You can Indiana Jones the nuke by hoping in a fridge; nukies can now choose to use a death acidifier to melt their bodies; audio has been reworked; and many other additions and fixes over the week.
