Dyson Sphere Program Dev Tracker

Long time no see, engineers!

It's been a while since the last update. We've received lots of feedbacks from you on the "Transport Update". So we've been working hard during the dog days, and now the update is ready for shipment.


Now a new transport Control Panel(I) is added. All types of transport across the cluster can be managed through here. You can also locate desired Stations or Distributors by clicking the locate button.


Added route display for paired Stations or Distributors. You can now have a clear view of the route and the items transported.


There is some complaints about the pairing system since the las... Read more

Hi engineer，wishing you a happy Children's Day!

[Change]
- Adjusted the zoom scale of the camera to the target planet when selecting a destination for interstellar routes.
- Interstellar route selection no longer jumps the camera to the destination.
- Interstellar routes can now be established between any planets/systems, without the need for factories in the target planet/system.
- The search box in the point-to-point transport panel will now display all matched logistics stations.
- Optimized the WASD movement in the Technology Tree.

[Bugfix]
- Fixed the bug where group settings did not take effect immediately after clicking the group setting button.
- Fixed a bug where sand pile is picked up as a physical item. (Existing sand pile items will remain)
- Fixed the bug where the UI display of Advanced Mining Machine is incorrect.
- Fixed the bug where NaN was displayed in the brief information of the Eclipse Fortress under c... Read more

Hi, engineers. Long time no see. You might already know Icarus was preparing some new fancy stuff for a future update. It’s a project that requires lots of resources from across the entire cluster. Icarus can only hope its vessels had brought enough warpers, or they would return 2000 years later.

CentreBrain already found the Interstellar Logistic Stations not being very “logical” when they are on many different planets. Like when one ship set off to deliver some ores, all needing stations are going overboard and spamming “Mine, mine!” in the transmission. So CentreBrain is now planting a logic chip into the Interstellar Logistic Station to make it function more properly.

Now you can set priority settings in Interstellar Logistic Stations, it comes with a new shipshape UI will help you manage your transport priorities.

Interstellar logistics has always been one of the most complex systems in Dyson Sphere Program. It is not only complicated in terms of code but also in terms of design.

Many engineers have asked us this question, "Youthcat! Why does my ship go to a farther planet to get items instead of a closer one？"

Good question! In today's dev log, we will introduce the history and evolution of the interstellar logistics system. We'll roughly explain the iteration process of optimizing the interstellar logistics system experience.



Before the Update
In the previous interstellar logistics system, the transportation of an item from interstellar logistic station A to Station B was facilitated by a mechanism called Supply-Demand Pairing. Each supply-demand pair contained information about the supplier, the demander, and the item being transported.... Read more

Hi engineers,

Good morning, good afternoon, and good evening.

It's been three years since the launch of Dyson Sphere Program. Time flies, but our adventurous journey among the stars continues. What fades away with the passage of time is only time itself, while the great miracles we collectively forged stand eternal in the cosmos.

It starts with every small step. The first miner, the first smelting, the first Electromagnetic Matrix, the first launch of solar sails, the first operational space transport – countless firsts have made the Dyson Sphere Program a reality. Thank you all.

With the update of the Rise of the Dark Fog, the combat system has been introduced. The upcoming Dyson Sphere Program will be even more exciting.

In the next phase, the Dyson Sphere Program will revolve around "Vehicles" (we haven't defined a name for this version yet) and "Space Stations". Of course, Dyson Sphere Program is an automation factory game, so updates i... Read more
