Detailed Change Log
- New Unstable Passages that lead to new underground maps containing resources. These passages can only be traversed through and back once, but more will spawn around the main map. (Also a new set of resources that can only be found in these temporary maps)
- Drill offloading is now automatic.
- Overhauled item pickup/drop system to allow items to be placed down on surfaces.
- Can create any number of the alien artifacts (they can be used as decoration now if you like).
- Created Item Dispenser which can print and dispense decorational items (Including resources).
- Changed up the interior of the drill, allowing any items to be placed in it (Not just the alien artifacts).
- Made the drill docking screen larger, and made it show stats on the drill, as well has being able to customise the drills terminal theme, and music. (Once researched)
- Improved the feel of drilling in the drill. The drill accelerates to top speed now, rather than it being instant, and rotation speed will scale with movement speed.
- Added room styles (Industrial and Quarters) alongside the Default style.
- Added empty shelves and podiums, for placing the decorational items on.
- Remade the power storage models.
- Overhauled the research system, removing research points, and making research cost resources. Also improved how the terminal displays the research, allowing yet to be unlocked research to be visible.
- Added refinery enhancement research, allowing Autoload and Overclock functions to be unlocked for both refinery types.
- Added generator enhancement research, allowing Autofill function to be unlocked for both generator types.
- Added these enhancement functions to be accessible from the Machine Command Terminal once unlocked.
- Improved the conveyor models and underground map sprites for the resources to be more varied.
- Allow sitting in chairs.
- Added new purple terminal theme.
