New Covers
We've been adding more detail to the structure exteriors, to make them more interesting and different from each other, we've added new cover textures, and new props like skylights, tanks and other details.
Algae Farm
Here you will be able to grow algae to feed your colonists. This will be one of the many sources of food in the game like vegetables, insects or vitromeat.
Toilets and Treatment Plant
This will be new mechanic in Planetbase 2: colonists will use the toilets, where they will "produce" Organic Waste, that you can then process in the Treatment Plant, to make it into Fertilizer, that you can then use to grow plants in the Bio-Dome.
Fusion Reactor
This completes the full array of power generation structures in the game, this is on top of Solar Panels, Wind Turbines, Geothermal Plant and the Nuclear Reactor.
Bar
This is the place for the colonists to relax after a hard day of work. The new Bar has some new additions as well like Sofas, Decorative Lamps and Neon Signs.
Lab
The Lab is making a comeback, but with 3 new research components: Medical Research Station, Biological Research Station and Astrophysical Research station. Here your colonists can perform basic research, which can be used to generate development for new upgrades, or commercial research which generates credits.
And what's next?
We are working on more new features:
Propellant Manufacturing: Produce, store and use Rocket Fuel.
Trade: New improved trade mechanics.
Automotive Plant: Build your own vehicles.
Nuclear Refining Facility: Refine raw minerals into nuclear fuel.
And a lot more!
You can wishlist if you want and let us know what you think in the forums.
Martiño.
