Hello again dear followers!
Any object in the game has a mass, even if it is loaded in the cargo bay, it increases the total mass of the ship, so, the bigger the mass, the harder it is to accelerate the entire ship. And this means need more fuel.
Now maximum size of the ship is 32x32 cells. But we can extend this limit if it will be not enough. But for now it seems good.
Also you can extend ship size by docking one to another.
Couple of words about shipbuilding process. Each module appears instantly after placement, but after that it need to be builded by drones. Each drone is automatic unit like a workers in RTS. You can control them by mouse and give several orders by shift+clicking.
Also we thought to do the manual construction. So you need to hold your left mouse button on the unfinished module. But then we decide that it's too boring and we are implement RTS like workers.
What do you think?
And some new Greenlight statistics.
