Hey!

Small announcement. We are working hard on the next update and multiple separate features(don’t ask mastef about it), which will be a pretty big one. Stay tuned and expect some sneak peeks soon!

Sometimes people ask why content updates take so long. As the game evolves and more features are added - some of the old code becomes hard to deal with and needs to be adapted. It requires big changes under the hood.

If you played the game like a factorio - it’s a bit like rewiring 50% of your factories and conveyor belts, while keeping half of them not touched and working. It’s a subtle job, which could bring non-obvious new bugs, which also take time to fix. Like cats attacking mages in cold blood.

As a result, this rewiring work would make next updates easier to make and maintain.

It also makes the life of the modders much easier. And modding support we hope to improve a lot after steam release and workshop integration.

In the last year we reworked some of these parts of the code. And now working on another big chunk of these improvements

Cheers!
