Insert Inert Ruins
- Some ruins, when surveyed, will now reveal functions apart from just containing Resources and Artifacts. For now, you can discover ruins that store Energy or Fuel or act as an Air Filter to remove pollution and Xethane (and sometimes a mix of two, if you’re lucky maybe even all three!) for your city.
- Once activated by spending Artifacts to research them, they will act like other buildings in your city. However, they cannot burrow
- Even once activated, you can still salvage them for their original resource contents, but any artifacts they once contained are used up on activation
- Inert Ruins will also do far more damage when destroyed by Rebels, so it’s wise to plan your city carefully around these useful but volatile structures.
? Ship Blueprints
- UI is in the bottom left of the Shipyard View
- From here you can save, apply and overwrite blueprints
- Blueprints are saved on a per user basis, so no matter how many cities you start, you’ll be able to use the same blueprint every single time
- Up to 5 blueprints per ship hull can be saved
Explorers of Titan
- Two new map locations are now available to play!
- Tranquil Trailblazing – more lakes, less Rebel camps, low Xethane and lots of rain
- Chemical Enterprise – no lakes, lots of Xethane and Rebel camps, and no weather conditions
- We’ve also added some colour overlays to all locations to give them more distinct identities and added specific weather conditions to some existing maps
Piece of Advice
- We’ve moved the Advisors Panel to the top left next to all the other Management panels so that it’s easier to find and more accessible – remember you can access all kinds of extra gameplay tips and tricks by calling your Advisors, so give it a try!
- Moved a gameplay tip from the Advisor system to the Linear Tutorial to better explain Job Priorities
Working Hard or Hardly Working?
- Added a new flag to indicate that all your Employees are assigned to fulltime jobs or dedicated to a Job Category, to better communicate why no Employees are available to do other work
- Unfortunately we will have to wait to localize the contents of this tooltip!
Filters are Friends
- ? Changed the UI panel of Storage Facilities and Containers – the filter settings are no longer hidden behind a button and are now instead listed on the UI panel
Fuel Up
- Refactored some fuel storage code
- Fuel stored in the Transport Hub can now also be used to power your Energy Plants if need be
- Fuel from your Silos will also be used to fill your Transport Hub if need be
Red vs Blue (Polished up our Combat VFX!)
- Player ships fire blue lasers instead of red lasers to help differentiate between shots
- Combat view targeting reticles got a makeover and now display different colours depending on if they are being placed, charging or firing
Dismantle it All!
- Moved the Dismantle All and Dismantle Mode UI to the bottom of the device list in Buildings and Shipyard
