Hello! ːsteamhappyː
This week, we continue tweaking the beta update with the autosmelters and fluid production units to balance gameplay and the economy (Another beta update will hopefully arrive this weekend).We're also working on adding a few more units that have been requested.
The 0.30 update will likely remain in beta for a couple more weeks as we fine-tune everything and add all the production units. Massive thanks to everyone who has joined the beta and provided feedback, it really helps us balance the game for multiple playstyles!
Some other additions to the beta include the new metal analyser, a basic hand tool that helps you identify different ores and materials in the ground. This should be a great way to surface prospect. The drill is still needed for medium-depth prospecting.
The new metal analyser
The new fluid tank, at the moment the tank only acts as a buffer for the pumps. but it will have multiple uses in future patches.
