Surviving Mars Dev Tracker

Ouarzazate Solar Power Station, Morocco - looking positively Martian 🌞

A ChoGGi classic - this mod lets you place spires anywhere inside a dome. Imagine six Arcology buildings...this bad boy could fit so many colonists inside it 🏙️ #SurvivingMars

Via PDX Plaza:

Defeating bandits on the world map - even roaming ones - unlocks additional resources that either can be scavenged, or are dropped immediately. Click on a bandit unit to see what rewards they'll give you. 🎁

They are easily one of the highest yield crops in the game, which translates roughly to real life: there is a huge and ever-growing demand worldwide for the soybean - the so-called "king of beans" - and it seems the apocalypse has changed little.

The answer to the crop question is actually....soybeans! 🫘🌱
Don't believe us? Have a look at your in-game stats - even if you're prioritising other crops, you're going to be producing lots and lots of soybeans.

Another fun one - let's see how many people can guess correctly 😈

Drone alone 🤖

Life in the wasteland takes its toll, I guess

From u/AegonTheCanadian via r/SurvivingMars:

"does anybody else preserve their first dome as a museum? I turned mine into a tourist attraction:"

They may breach the walls, but god help them if they step on my camellias. #SurvivingtheTriffids

Now, which crop do you think would be the most commonly grown, on average❓

The second most produced resource on average is planks of wood 🌲 which many people guessed. They're used in the construction of buildings from early to late game, and can be processed into firewood, which is used in cooking meals, keeping burners alight, etc.

The answer is...

Mixed meals! 🥘

We were a little surprised by this at first, but it makes perfect sense. Colonist nutrition is important, and when it comes to sustaining larger colonies, you're going to be making a *lot* of mixed meals...

This was a hot button issue in our Surviving Mars streams last month. It was determined that cats floating around in a rocket would provide quite the health & safety issue...

Happy ̶I̶n̶t̶e̶r̶n̶a̶t̶i̶o̶n̶a̶l̶ Interplanetary Cat Day, from our colony to yours! 🐱🚀

We had a slightly less optimistic take on this from Matti.

Trivia time! 🕵️‍♀️
Can you guess which resource is most produced by players (on average) in Surviving the Aftermath?

We'll reveal the answer on Monday... 🔍
