2nd October – You Raise Me Up

Evening folks! Just a quick one for you tonight.

Everyone’s been hard at work across the board, but I really wanted to show off Kyren’s new elevators with the wiring functionality she introduced today. While the graphics on the platforms are still extremely placeholder, she’s done an absolutely fantastic job and I was able to do a lot of cool stuff with just a few simple logic gate configurations. I’m really looking forward to seeing what you guys do with this!

30th September – Intimidating your colonists!

Hey everyone!

Tccoxon’s been working on a feature that we’ve been excited about for awhile – procedurally generated quests! Colonists and other NPCs will generate their own little quests for you over time. These quests can be anything from baking a cake for an NPC so that they can make a friend, to stealing and extorting objects from other NPCs in order to build a new house.

Here’s an example from a quest line! Poor Wise Minoru.
