🚀 New Features & Mechanics
Cabin Elevator System
Going underground and returning to the surface is now more convenient. We have added an electrically powered Cabin Elevator system. Here is how it works:
Elevator units can be snapped directly underneath each other to create a single vertical structure.
The Elevator Main Unit acts as a designated floor, allowing you to travel back and forth between these main units.
Extension units are available as a cheaper option to extend the elevator's shaft down to your dig sites.
The elevator cabin comes equipped with its own built-in storage container, making it easier to transport resources to the surface.
Backpack Generator
We have added a new Backpack Generator to help you manage your energy while working:
It operates as a fuel-powered piece of equipment designed to improve your energy regeneration.
As long as it remains active, it allows your energy to regenerate up to 100%.
It increases the overall speed of your energy recovery.
🔧 Bug Fixes
Shared Storage UI: Fixed a synchronization issue with the Upgrade UI in the Shared Storage.
Demo Save Fix: Resolved a bug where taking a save in the demo would cause it to be unexpectedly short.
Thank you for continuing to share your feedback with us. We hope the new elevator and generator help you dig deeper and plan your escape more efficiently.
See you underground, Survivors!
