After a longer break without updates, we're back! The reason: a big move back to Germany. Everything is now up and running again, and development has continued. The main focus of this update: events – dynamic situations that affect gameplay in interesting ways.

Big Event

Events now occur randomly over time and can include multiple effects at once. For example, supply routes from Earth might get disrupted: storage can be reduced, production priorities may shift, or certain resources may temporarily increase in cost. Think of a steel factory back on Earth breaking down – suddenly, your ship has to adapt.

Improved Person Skills

Crew skills are now more flexible and evolve with your progress. Early in the game, new crew members don’t demand much in terms of living conditions. As you achieve major objectives, better-trained crew will arrive. Some events can also lead to better—or worse—personnel joining your mission.

Item Slot Boxes

To improve clarity, there are now dedicated boxes for item slot resources. These can be crafted at the workbenches and help keep things organized.

Temporary Item Slots

Based on tester feedback, item slots for crew have received several improvements. Oxygen masks are now only used when really needed. Rescue crew can also place masks on unconscious team members, allowing for more realistic and life-saving behavior.

Sound

A major new system: sound! This update introduces new audio systems that bring the world to life, with sounds for both crew and interior items. It adds atmosphere and makes your ship feel more alive.

Bad Air Alert

The lighting system has been reworked and now allows for more flexible color control. Rooms with toxic air will now pulse with an orange warning light. On top of that, an alert sound will play in each affected room, prompting the crew to equip their oxygen masks in time.

Smaller Things

Beyond the big features, the loading system has been optimized for larger save games, and many small fixes and adjustments have been made under the hood.
