A message from the developers

Dear engineers,

Chinese New Year is just around the corner and we wish to extend our best wishes to all of you! Despite that, the journey towards the starry sea will continue, so don't forget to replenish and re-energize yourselves while awaiting our return!

As a going-on-holiday gift, we present to you our last update before Chinese New Year's eve! As promised a few days ago, Keybinding and Quick Upgrade functions are now launched in this patch. And guess what, we also brought you an extra present - the Chain Dismantle function!

We're taking a short break and will be out of the office for a few days to celebrate Chinese New Year before returning to bring you more anticipated and fancy game updates. After the holidays, we will begin work on delivering a multi-language patch. Stay tuned!

~Best wishes and Happy Chinese New Year~

Early Access Patch Version: 0.6.15.5759

Features

  • Quick Upgrade: You are able to upgrade the conveyor belt, sorter, and assembling machine by directly putting the new ones (cover/overlap/move) on the lower grade ones.
  • Chain Upgrade and Chain Dismantle: You are able to upgrade or dismantle a whole conveyor belt directly with this new function.
  • Keybinding: You are able to rebind hotkeys.
  • Add a hint message of pressing 'SHIFT' to accelerate while sailing.

Changes

  • We modified the planet generation to make it easier to start. From now on, there must be 6 iron and 6 copper beside Icarus's landing place.
  • We changed the saving process to relieve the memory pressure. The savedata will be written directly to the hard disk

Balance

  • Reduce the energy consumption of deceleration and steering in sail mode.

Bugfix=

  • Fixed a bug where the lights of the energy exchangers flash for no reason.
  • Fixed a bug where the arrow on the energy exchanger panel might be reversed.


Early Access Patch Version: 0.6.15.5706

A message from the developers:

Hi Engineers,

We are bringing one of the promised short-term goals: 'Framework of logistics management system' to you in the update today!

All types of Logistics Station

  • Now you can decide a minimum distance for a Vessel to equip a Warper.
  • Now you can decide whether warpers must be equipped on Vessels before departure when the minimum distance above is reached.
  • Now you can set the transport distance for Drones and Vessels.
  • Now you can set the minimum load for Drones and Vessels.
  • Now you can choose whether the Vessels will pick up cargos from the Orbital Collector.

Other changes

  • Some English item and technology descriptions have been reworked.
  • Now you can hear the working sound of Smelter.

Reminder

  • Just a quick reminder from the short-term plan:

A basic management framework will be setup to the logistics system. Of course, it will be still 'basic' in February that may only bring 'basic' logistic solution for you, such as the farthest transportation distance and the quantity requirement of delivering goods. The logistic system will be fleshed with the progress of game development in the future.
