Alpha 2 (dubbed William and Harry) was [https://store.steampowered.com/news/app/1857080/view/3680048129696261275 released] on {{#formatdate:11 May 2023|dmy}} along with an [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YocmuecAJM0 update video] recorded on {{#formatdate:7 May 2023|dmy}} . | |||
'''<u>FULL CHANGE LIST</u>''' | |||
'''Hydroponics'''<br> | |||
New 'Hydroponics Garden' equipment is now available to buy.<br> | |||
Requires power, piped water, compost (from Waste Processing), and Seeds (also available to buy).<br> | |||
If all of these ingredients are provided, vegetables will be grown in the individual plots.<br> | |||
If water or power is cut during growth, the crop will suffer.<br> | |||
Eventually the vegetables will be harvested, producing Food and more Seeds. | |||
'''Crew stations'''<br> | |||
Some pieces of equipment now require crew to operate.<br> | |||
The crew station can be seen in schematic view as a green circle, and must be clear from obstructions<br> | |||
These include:<br> | |||
* Gatling Guns | |||
* Cannons | |||
* Railguns | |||
* Munitions table | |||
More will be added in future. | |||
'''Battle Stations'''<br> | |||
All weapon systems in your fleet now default to 'inactive', and will appear retracted into the ship.<br> | |||
To activate your weapons, click the 'Battle Stations' button in the bottom right of the screen.<br> | |||
Each weapon system requires one crew member to operate, before it can fire.<br> | |||
Nb. The order to Battle Stations is fleet wide.<br> | |||
As soon as you disable Battle Stations, crew will return to normal duties and all weapon systems will retract. | |||
'''Small Changes'''<br> | |||
* You can now sell any of your ships at a Shipyard. | |||
: Just click the SELL button next to the layer name, top right of the screen. | |||
: Nb. You cannot sell your final ship - ie you always need one ship in the fleet. | |||
* Added Vertical Symmetry to Ship Editor | |||
* Ship Editor state saved/restored between sessions | |||
* Docked ships can now be included when exporting a ship | |||
* Fixed crash with docking cycles (they can also no longer be created) | |||
* Settings menu now has options for Windowed/Fullscreen/Resolution | |||
* Steam Workshop | |||
