Good day, engineers!

In this patch, we are bringing you a new function: "Traffic Monitor". Literally, It will display the amount that cargo is passing through the production line. You will not only be able to monitor the passing radio by reading the number, but also hearing its alarm sound.
...... hmm? Why does it sound like a piano?




[Version 0.8.23.9808]
Features:

• Added Traffic Monitor. You can build it on the conveyor belt to monitor the status of the production line.
  
  
• Added Global Alert System. You can activate this feature to monitor the status of some buildings, for example, to see if the last smelter is wor...

Hi engineers!

When you finish the update and enter the game, you'll find the Icarus is kinda different - Yes, Icarus the HD Remastered! New textures, cool animations, and even more hardcore (face) landing technology!
Along with it comes new types of gas giants, factory rendering efficiency improvements, and other enhancements.

We've looked at a few ways to save engineers from having to reopen a new game every time a new planet type is added. For example, we tried the method of "leaving the visited planets unchanged and re-randomizing the unvisited planets", but we found that the randomization process was too complicated that the visited planets may also change under it. So now we are adding "subtypes" of planets to solve the problem.

Take a look at today's update.

[Version 0.8.21.8562]
Features:

• The model of Icarus was remade. It now has high-resolution body modeling and textures!

Hey engineers!
We have done some, hmmm, subsequent updates from the last update. Hope you Icarus have a happy Blueprint and a happy game!

[Version 0.8.20.8116]

Bugfix:

• Fixed a bug that the Conveyor Belt could not be connected end to end in the Blueprint construction mode caused by the optimization of the Conveyor Belt collision in [8092] patch .
  
• Fixed a bug that the Logistics Station could not be connected in a specific location caused by the optimization of the Conveyor Belt collision in [8092] patch .
  
• Fixed a bug that the Conveyor Belt and the Conveyor Belt near the pole could still be connected even though they are too far away from each other.

Hi engineers, how's going? We brought some new fixes to improve your operation experiences.

[version 0.8.20.8092]

Features:

• Added the real-time calculation logic of the Conveyor Belt into the multi-threaded system.

Changes:

• Optimized the length of savedata. Reduced the length of [Entity Data] by about 50%, and the length of [Conveyor Belt and Cargo] by about 10%. Please "Save" once after updating the version to enable this optimization.
  
• Modified the collision detection of the Conveyor Belt in the Blueprint construction mode to solve collision problems that may occurred during the construction of the multi-layer Conveyor Belt in Blueprint.
  
• Optimized the algorithm for controlling target frame rate and slightly improved the util...

Dyson Sphere Program engineers,

We gradually improved the blueprint system. From this version0.0.000, the new Blueprint generated by the new production line manually built by the engineers will no longer have the problem of Sorters mismatch.

However, Bugs in the old version or some early MODs such as "Sorter quick copy" caused abnormal game data, and these abnormalities may remain in the blueprint generated by the production line of the old version. An abnormal blueprint may also contain mismatched sorters, and so on.

Therefore, for future Blueprint dissemination considerations, we hope our engineers can use the newly built production line in the version 0.8.20.7996 (or higher) when making Blueprints, and not copy Blueprints built lower than 0.8.20.7996 In addition, please delete and do not spread the Blueprint that reports the sorter error to prevent data errors* from spreading through the Blueprint. We will continue to optimize related issues to make the g... Read more

Hi engineers,

In addition to the optimization and fix of the Blueprint system, today we also bring you a brand new "Performance Test" tool. You can use it to detect how much computer performance each part of your production line consumes. The test results of this tool will further guide the next optimization work.

Besides, today we also want to make a statement about the source code of Dyson Sphere Program: We have published part of the code, which is intended to support players in making Mods, but does not mean that our code can be published or posted wherever, who want.

[Version 0.8.20.7962]


Features:

• Added sand and dust VFX for Arid Desert.
  
• Added the "Performance Test" function to the statistics panel. You can see real-time CPU consumption, GPU rendering works and savedata length analysis to optimize the production line.
  
• Added the real-time path calculation logic of the Dyson Sphere ...
