Patch #11
Highlight:
+New Large & Giant warehouses! +New setting to control display of status/problem/event icons +New decorations |
A bunch of players have asked for larger warehouses.
We always planned to add more warehouses, hence why the largest one upto now was called medium, but based on the large volume of player requests we made this task a priority!
So I am proud to present to you the Large and Giant warehouses!
We put our best carpenter on the task and he figured out that if we brace the structural beams at the mid point we can achieve much taller volumes!
We've also snuck in a few more decorations, and a new option which improve performance on large colonies: you can now disable the various floating status icons using the new "Info Icon Blip" setting. Plus of course many other bug fixes and balance changes you can read about in the full changelog below.
