Repeated intro

Hey guys, ooohhh man... we can hardly believe it, but it's finally here! Our huge Modding Update "The Nanobot Conspiracy" has just launched! With this Update you'll be able to mod aaaall the game's data files. That includes scripting, missions, dialogue, characters, game locations. It also means you can add new ships, weapons and upgrades, translate the text files to another language, or even write personal side-quests and storylines for other players to explore. We've also included Steam Workshop support, through the use of two new included tools. For one, there's the Mod Manager, which you can easily launch directly from Steam when starting the game. It will help you get started downloading and activating mods safely, and will also make it possible to easily deactivate or delete any mods you don't want anymore. All your original game files are backed up safely and can be restored in the Manager, so you don't have to worry about breaking anything! The other tool is the new Mod Uploader. For those of you who want to create their own mods, it will help you quickly and easily set up a mod directory and get it submitted to the workshop. Once you've done that, you can hop right into your new mod folder and start editing away! We've also prepared a short tutorial on how to get started with creating your own mods here: http://steamcommunity.com/app/464360/discussions/3/1698293703772705421/ Besides the modding, we've also added a bunch of new features, like new station traffic, billboards and more effects around stations, a new enemy type on derelicts, a weapons recharge indicator and displays for weapon stats on the upgrade screen. (Oh, and the Ion Cannon is pretty fun now. Go try it out! :] ) There's just too much stuff to name it all, so here is the full list for you: Features / Gameplay
