DevLog #3 – New Tasks, New Threats & Quality of Life
Hey everyone! 👋
Big update this time — new tasks, a new threat, and some useful QoL improvements.
🛳️ How Ship Servicing Works
When a ship docks, you first scan it at the Service Console and wait for the scan to complete. Once done, entering the repair bay opens the Task UI showing everything that needs to be done.
Repair — fix damaged parts with your hammer
Extinguish — put out fires with the fire extinguisher
Replace — remove the broken part, install a new one
Supply tasks — place the correct consumable into the Supply Unit and wait for the transfer to finish. Empty consumables won't count.
🔥 New Ship Task: Extinguish
Ships can now arrive with fires on their parts. Grab the fire extinguisher, aim at the burning component, and put it out.
📦 Four New Consumables
The Supply Unit now supports four new task types:
🧪 Oxygen Tank
💧 Water Pod
🍱 Food Box
🖥️ Navigation Software
🚀 Ship Attacks Are Here
Enemy ships warp in, fly toward your station, and open fire. Man the turret, shoot them down before your shield breaks. Each successful defense makes the next wave harder.
⚠️ When Ships Won't Arrive
Ships won't dock if any of these conditions are active — and you'll now see a clear warning for each:
Station is closed
Outside working hours
Repair bay is blocked
A battle is in progress
🔮 What's Next
Bank loan system
Rent & utility bills
Repair & extinguish task costs
Hammer & fire extinguisher charge system
Tool upgrades
