Hello Everyone!
Welcome to dev update 07! (see previous updates 01, 02, 03, 04, 05, 06)
We are ramping up production to finish all 3D art, we hope to do this before the end of the summer, which will give us a few months to test and tweak gameplay.
In this update we are highlighting the new Guards, Mine and Nuclear Facility
New Guards
This is the new Planetbase 2 security team, that will handle misbehaving colonists and visitors, ensuring a safe and productive colony environment.
They will be able to surveil the base, arrest people and, worst case scenario, use their weapons to neutralize criminals.
New Mine
Here your colonists will be able to mine a variety of different ores, like Iron, Silicates, Aluminum, Uranium, Thorium and more.
This time around you will be able to transport ores from the mine using vehicles.
Nuclear Facility
This is a new interior structure that has components that are used to produce Nuclear Fuel and Nuclear Reactors in order to power the colony. This avoids having to import critical components and makes the colony more self-sufficient.
Centrifuge
This is a component that creates Nuclear Fuel from Uranium.
Thorium Processor
Once you have the required techs, you will be able make Nuclear Fuel from Thorium instead, which is more abundant and easier to handle.
Nuclear Container
This is a purpose built container for nuclear materials like Uranium, Thorium and Nuclear Fuel.
Nuclear Core Builder
This is a massive machine where you can build Nuclear Reactor Cores, that can then be used to build your own Nuclear Reactors instead of having to import them into the colony.
What's Next
We are working on a few different things, including Robots and Drones, which we will hope to show in the next update.
We can't wait to share the game with everyone, thank you for your support!
Martiño.
